"Please just go away," I groan while rolling over to my side.
His arm slides around my waist as he snuggles up next to me, letting his body spoon with mine. I stiffen against his touch that always makes me warmer.
"Alyssa, I don't want to lose you. I didn't do anything with her besides what you saw. It's just a tactic to seduce information out of someone - more flies with honey and all that. I swear I only did it to get information. You know I want to be with you."
He rolls me over to see the fresh spill of tears on my face, and he wipes my cheek with his thumb as I finally stare into his eyes.
"I don't know anything anymore. I've trusted two men with something as intimate as a person can offer, and both of you have hurt me in your own ways. Maybe we should just take a step back. I don't want to be with you right now. After seeing you with her... It's not the same. You looked at her the way you look at me. I feel as played as she probably does."
He sighs out hard while pressing his forehead to mine. Before I realize what he's doing, his lips are pressed against mine. He jerks my hips to meet his center, letting me feel his arousal as he kisses me harder.
During a moment of pure weakness, I clutch him to me, reveling in the feel of his body against mine no matter how wrong it is. His tongue plays with mine, the heated metal in his mouth delighting me to my core.
At last, sanity returns and I push him back. "Stop. Just get out. I can't do this."
"Alyssa, I want-"
"I said get out!"
My door swings open, and Kane appears with glowing blue eyes, ready to fight until he sees I'm screaming at Gage.
Gage puffs, kissing me lightly on the forehead, and then he rolls out of the bed. Having both of them in my room feels so dirty.Ifeel dirty. I've officially had my lips on both of theirs in the same night a few times now. Are you a slut even if you've only been with two guys?
I don't want to be a slut.
Gage pushes Kane to the side as he storms out, feeling rejected. Kane shuts the door, but remains in my room.
"Don't," I mumble while holding my hand up in astopmotion. "I just want to sleep, damn it. Please go."
He smiles and walks over to me, making me shiver as he sits on the edge of my bed. He brushes my hair from my face and leans over to kiss me on the cheek - a lingering kiss.
He stands and heads back to the door, but he stops short of opening it. "I love you, Alyssa. That's all I have to say."
With that, he's out the door before my mind can process his retreat.
Fucking immortals.
