Excerpt:
LEAVING THE RESTAURANT, I was surely inebriated after all of the very expensive wine
we had over dinner. No matter how drunk I was, I could say that this was the best I’d felt
in a long time. I strolled along with Patrick by my side. The two of us walked on a bridge
that crossed the river. Patrick at once stopped walking and I turned to him.
“What’s up?” I asked as he walked to the railing and looked down at the water.
“It is all so amazing you know,” He continued to look at the water as he spoke. “It is so
amazing how you can be so dedicated to a man who may never wake up,”
“He would do the same for me,” I insisted just hoping it would be true. Inside I felt like it
could be. I felt as if the tables were turned that Keaton would wait for me.
“Are you absolutely certain of that fact?” Patrick questioned, finally no longer looking at
the water, but looking at me directly in the eyes.
“Yes no I just know that he and I love each other. I have hope that he would wait for
me,” I admitted my uncertainty out loud.
Patrick chuckled. “Has anyone ever told you that you are bat-shit crazy?”
“Plenty of times,” I answered with a straight face. I knew April told me at least once a
week and she insisted that I try and move on with my life.
“Brielle ” he breathed my name out. “You are one of a kind and I’m trying here. I am
trying to just be your friend, but damn it I’m hooked on you. Tell me I’m crazy,”
“You are crazy,”
“I’m crazy about you. That is for sure,”
“Patrick, I..,”
“I need to know if this could be real. If the feelings, I am having are justified. Kiss me and
tell me you don’t feel a thing. If you don’t I’ll leave you alone,” He was now giving me
some sort of ultimatum.
“I’m not doing that,” I shook my head fiercely. “I’m not--,” I didn’t get a chance to finish
as Patrick’s lips were pressed roughly against mine. I could honestly say I’d never felt
anything like this kiss before. My heart was pounding and every nerve-ending in my
body felt so alive and filled with raw electricity. I craved more of what he could give me.
I threw my arms around his neck and his hands gripped tightly at my waist. His tongue
slipped between my lips and I allowed it in. I needed all he could give me and I was going
to take it all in.
Drip Drop, Drip, Drop it started to rain. We ignored the drops of wetness that were
falling faster and harder with each passing moment. We were too caught up in one
another. He nibbled at my bottom lip, eliciting a moan from deep inside of my throat. No
kiss had ever made me react this way. There was no doubt that my panties were wet and
not from the rain. Patrick at once broke the kiss and took me by the hand. I loved the
way his hand seemed to cradle mine.
“Come on,” He said giving me a smile.
We ran together through the rain, right back to the hotel. Though we were both soaking
wet, we were on fire for one another. I watched Patrick fight to get the room key from
his pocket. He unlocked the door and allowed me inside. He nearly kicked the door
closed before he grabbed me by the hips and pulled me back to him.
We kissed fiercely as he worked to shimmy me from my soaking wet dress. I worked my
fingers along the buttons of his shirt and undid them all before I grabbed at his belt
fighting to get it unbuckled.
I stepped back from him for a moment and there I could finally see him. His abs were
sculpted and toned up to his chest. My breath caught as I took in the sight before me. He
grinned as he dropped his pants and stepped out of them. It took no time before he was
pulling me towards him. His hands slipped along my curves, taking them all in.
I wondered if this night would be like any of my dreams. The dreams that had been
haunting me, but also enticing me for weeks now. With every dream I had I wanted him
more and now I finally had him.
The only things left covering my body were my bra and panties. Patrick lay me down on
the couch and came over me. I wrapped a leg around him and felt his arousal pressing
against me. He was craving me as much as I was craving him. His lips were on mine once
again and a growl erupted from his throat. I smiled against his lips running my hands up
his toned chest. I opened my eyes determined to look into his eyes, but a distinctive
sparkle caught my attention and I froze.
The sparkle was from my ring, my engagement ring. The token of love and devotion
given to me by Keaton, but here I was about to give myself to another man. Dread,
disgust, and hate spread through my body as I pushed away from Patrick. I scurried off
to my dress and picked it up off the floor.
“Brielle, babe. What’s happened?” Patrick asked with confusion written all over his face.
“I’m fucking engaged. That is what happened,” I asserted. I couldn’t believe that any of
this had happened. I’d allowed it to happen and for that I was wrong.
