Story: Tainted Romance

I grinned and turned Allie around, crashing my lips down on hers. By the end of tonight, she wouldn’t be saying no to me anymore. I would have her back in bed and hopefully feeling what she used to feel for me.

I was enjoying kissing her so much, my hands running up the back of her tank top, that I nearly didn’t pick it up, but as soon as I did, I went stiff.

Ebony.

Ebony was fucking here.

If she was here, that meant that fucker would be close by.

I pulled away from Allie. “I need to piss. I’ll be back.”

She nodded her head and went back to smoking on the joint and enjoying the music. If she hadn’t picked up on her mate's scent yet, there was a chance I could still get them to leave before they ruined my weekend with her.

I walked through the crowd, and didn’t need to look around. I was naturally drawn to her. All my feelings for her flooded my body as I spotted her.

The want.

The need.

The passion we had together.

All of it.

Flooded me.

And I didn’t have Allie to distract me.

Ebony was standing at the end of the crowd like she had been waiting for me.

I didn’t spot Zane or her other dipstick of a friend Taylor. I knew she wouldn’t come here without both of them.

“What are you doing here?” I snapped at her. “You get drunk and lost or something?” Why the hell did I feel concern for her? If she was drunk and lost, I wanted to know. Fuck it. That need for her. Always there.

“No, I came for you.” Her hands went for me, running across my chest. “I’m so sorry, Blake.”

“Piss off.” It took all my willpower to not crave on my feelings for her. Fuck it. I need Allie to distract me.

“I didn’t sleep with Zane. That other guy, I did, but trust me, I didn’t enjoy it. I just want you, and all you wanted was Allie. It hurt, Blake. Please believe me when I say it hurt me.”

“So, you are blaming me as the reason you were unfaithful? It’s all my fault!”

“NO!”

“That’s what you are saying, Ebony!”

“Blake, are you even listening when I’m saying I’m sorry?” She looked up at me with wide eyes, and I could see her pain. “Please. Please just hear me when I say I love you so much it fucking hurts and I just wasn’t thinking.”

I ripped her hands off me. I still couldn’t think straight with her around. “Get your friends and piss off. I’m not interested.”

She scoffed, “Yes, you are! You love me even if you won’t admit it!”

“I’m going back to Allie. Have a safe drive back.” I turned and walked off.

I was surprised when she passed me. “You know what? I have a few things to say to Allie so I will join you.”

“STAY AWAY FROM HER!” I yelled, reaching out for her arm, but she took off before I grabbed her.
