She fell onto me and I could feel the rapid beating of her heart and the warmth of her breath against my skin as her breathing rate began to slow. She lifted her head and stared into my eyes before rolling off me.
“Thanks.” She smiled.
“You’re welcome.” I couldn’t help but smile back at her.
Removing the condom, I threw it over the side of the bed and into the trash can. Now came the awkward part where I had to tell her she had to leave. Before I had the chance to speak, she climbed out of bed and slipped into her dress.
“What are you doing?” I asked in confusion.
“We’re done here, right?” She smiled.
I furrowed my brows at her for no woman had ever willingly left without some sort of argument or tears.
“Yeah. I guess we are.”
“That’s what I thought.” She walked out of the room.
I quickly pulled on my pants and walked into the living room where she was putting on her heels.
“Well, wait,” I said.
“For what?” She looked up at me.
“I’ll take you home. Just give me a second to get dressed.”
“You don’t have to. I can take a cab.”
“Everly, I’m taking you home. I picked you up, didn’t I?”
“Yeah.”
“Then why wouldn’t I take you home?”
“Okay. I’ll wait.”
“Good. Don’t move. I’ll be right back.”
I went into the bedroom and gathered the rest of my clothes from the floor. What the hell was going on? Why was she in such a hurry to leave? Pulling out my phone, I called Damien to let him know we were on our way down.
“Are you ready?” I asked her as I walked into the living room.
“Yes.” She grabbed her purse.
We climbed into my car and Damien shot me a confused look. As soon as we pulled up to her building, I climbed out, held my hand out to her, and she willingly took it.
“Thanks again for tonight. I had a good time,” she spoke as we stood on the sidewalk.
“Me too.” I stood there with my hands tucked into my pockets. “I guess I’ll see you around sometime.”
“Yeah. See ya around.” She smiled as she leaned over and softly kissed my cheek. Good night, Asher.”
“Good night, Everly.”
When I climbed back in the car, I told Damien to wait until I made sure she was safely inside the building.
“This is a first,” Damien spoke as he pulled away from the curb.
“What is?”
“You personally taking a woman home.”
“Let’s not make a big deal about it.”
Everly
When I stepped inside the apartment, Daniel was sitting on the couch with a beer in his hand watching TV.
“Hey.” He turned his head. “How was your night with Asher Remington?”
“It was fun.” I grinned as I sat down next to him. “Is Diana in bed already?”
“Yeah. She said she was exhausted. ‘Fun,’ eh?” He gave me a smirk.
“Fun.” The corners of my mouth curved upward as I laid my head on his shoulder.
“Are you seeing him again?”
“Probably not.” I sighed.
“Do you think he believes you now?”
“I think he’s confused. Let’s leave it at that. I’m heading to bed. I’ll see you in the morning.” I got up from the couch and headed to my room.
After changing into my pajamas, I climbed in bed and laid my head on the pillow. When I closed my eyes, all I saw was him and the events that took place in his suite. The sex was incredible, and it was one one-night stand I wouldn’t be forgetting any time soon. I couldn’t get out of my head the way my body reacted to him, and the way I could still feel him inside me. It felt as if a connection was formed and our souls were tied together. I didn’t want to think about it anymore for it freaked me out.

When my alarm went off, I angrily shut it off and threw my phone on the floor. I’d tossed and turned all night and barely slept at all. Everly King was in my head all night and on my mind. Her body, the way she moved, and the way she wanted to leave right after we’d had sex. I couldn’t stop thinking about that couple in the restaurant, and the things she’d told me. The logical part of me still didn’t believe her, but another part of me couldn’t help but to.
I had just finished getting dressed when I heard my elevator ding. I was confused because I wasn’t expecting anyone and there was only one person who had access to my penthouse.
“There he is.” My friend, Noah, grinned as he stepped into my foyer and set his suitcases down.
“Noah? What the hell are you doing here?” I asked as I gave him a hug. “You’re supposed to be in Paris.”
“We need to talk if you have time.”
“I always have time for my best friend.” I hooked my arm around him. “Coffee?”
“Please. My flight just got in a little bit ago and I’m so jet-lagged.”
“What’s with the suitcases?” I asked as I brewed him a cup of coffee.
“I’ve decided to move
