I didn’t mean to, but I deepened the kiss. He shifted again, wiggling in my lap, his ass pressing against my cock.

No, no, no.

It felt like I was losing control, my head light, my thoughts scattered. I needed—

My phone buzzed on the desk. I pushed him off, harder than I meant to.

“Fuck.”

He stumbled back, a flicker of something, hurt or anger, crossing his face.

RYAN

Class was awkward, at least for me.I still sat in the front, but Landon had migrated closer to his stepbrother, more interested in riling him up than paying attention.

I was laser-focused on the professor. He kept avoiding my gaze. I’d even skipped class the other day, not to sulk, but to give him time to think about our kiss.

I wasn’t regretting it. Just recalculating. My window was closing, and if I didn’t wedge it open soon, he would bolt it shut.

Usually, by now, I had a man exactly where I wanted him, wrapped around my finger after one look, one pout, one come-hither glance. They were halfway undone before they even realized it.

Maybe that was the problem. I was used to boys.

Mr. Thorne—no,Nathan—was a man. Thirty-five. Married. Disciplined enough to resist temptation… for now.

Married.

The word had a way of sticking.

He made me want to act faster, harder, like my usual game wasn’t enough. And maybe it wasn’t.

Or maybe he thinks you're pathetic and loves his wife.

That thought sent a tremor through me.

I had never considered that I might not stand a chance.

No, stop. That was impossible. I was attractive. Easygoing. I didn’t lose.

There had to be a flaw his wife couldn’t hide. Something she couldn’t change.

Something he secretly hated every time he looked at her.

Besides, all men cheated. My father had taught me that.

Even the good ones. Especially the good ones.

I had felt it in the way he kissed me back, the way his cock had hardened and pulsed beneath me.

I just needed to find that pressure point.
