Chapter 94

Vanessa

As soon as the elevator doors open, I step out first, placing a hand on my chest to catch my breath while I make my way through the corridor until he speaks to me.

“And where do you think you’re going? That’s the wrong way.”

I stop in my tracks, turning around with my head low as I make my way back to him.

“I didn’t know that,” I say to him.

“Then why did you lead the way?”

“I don’t know.” I shrug, still keeping my head low.

He shakes his head at me and chuckles softly, leading the way in the other direction.

He stops at a certain door and unlocks it, keeps it open for me to get inside.

The suite is so spacious that it exceeds my expectations and I get away from him so I can look around. There’s a spacious living room, kitchen and dining room.

By the time I get to the bedroom, he’s already standing there, looking at the bed with crossed arms.

“There’s only one bed?” I ask, this not being what I was hoping for.

“Yeah and it’s big enough for both of us,” he says with a poker face.

“I know.”

“Then let’s go back.”

He walks ahead of me and I look back at the bed, thinking about tonight. Once he falls asleep, I plan to leave the bed and sleep on the sofa or anywhere else. As long as I’m not close to him. Of all the times I shared a bed with him, there’s never been a moment where he didn’t touch me. For the sake of my own feelings, I don’t want that to happen.

As I make my way to the door, he keeps it open for me, not even looking in my direction as I walk past him. While he locks the door, he looks at both sides of the corridor.

“I love everything about this hotel,” he says. “My favorite thing of them all is that the rooms are sound proof.”

He casually walks past me after saying that, leaving me to wonder why he even said it.

Back in the elevator, I make sure he doesn’t stand behind me and just as it goes down, he firmly speaks to me.

“There’ll be lots of food and alcoholic beverages and I plan to keep you close to me. I don’t want you making a scene.”

“Why would I make a scene?” I glance at him with furrowed eyebrows.

He only scoffs and that makes me curious.

“Is there something I don’t know about that night?” I ask. “Did I do or say something I shouldn’t have?”

All I can think about is how my top half was exposed to him and how we passionately kissed on my bed.

“Maybe you did. Maybe you didn’t,” he says. “Just don’t overdo it.”

He’s right and I don’t mean to. The last thing I want is to lose control when I’m trying so hard not to fall for this temptation.

As the event gets in full swing, with trying out samples that smell so good and speeches, Dominic holds me close the entire time. All I can think about is how he’s doing all this for the cameras, not because he wants to. On the other hand, I do and I hate that I do.

At the after–party, we have a VIP section and Frank’s with two girls on one side of the table.

“Had Jake stayed for this, he would’ve had a blast!” Frank yells over the music a little too loudly.

“You’ve got that right.” Dominic chuckles, pouring himself his last glass of whiskey from the bottle he’s just finished.
