Chapter 228: Who’s The Sarge?
When Emily had said they should just throw caution to the wind and sleep together again.
He should have shot her down instantly. Telling her no in a firm voice.
Afterall, they had just barely managed to evade his uncle. It was too risky for them to be going back to sleeping with one another so soon.
Especially since she was suggesting that they take Monday as a treat instead of at least waiting for Thursday.
He should have disagreed with her. Told her that they could not do it. But the moment that Emily had told him that she wanted to go back to sleeping together. Derek had become powerless. She had taken the words right out of his fantasies after all.
It was all that he had been thinking about in the two weeks that they had been apart. Every waking moment spent either thinking about sleeping with Emily. Or thinking of ways in which he could get to sleep with her again. ’So what if your uncle is suspicious?’ The devil-may-care voice at the back of his head said. ’So what if your mother has also been snooping around recently? Both of them are gone now. They are not a threat at the moment. What will you do? Keep worrying about other people and what they might say or do. Or are you going to just take the bull by the horns and do what you need to do?’
And that was essentially Derek’s mindset as he sat in his penthouse, waiting for Emily to arrive. What they were doing was risky. Sleeping together so soon after nearly being caught out by his uncle.
But to be quite honest, Derek was getting to the point where he did not care whether or not they were discovered. That was how tired he was. He just wanted Emily to arrive so that the two of them could get some much needed sleep.
That was all.
