Second Chance At Love

Chapter Four

Reyna POV

It had taken Theo three minutes to get my drunk ass into his Ferrari. He didn’t say a word, not even when I laced my fingers into his hair and yanked it. Why did I do that? I have no idea. His hair just looked so lush and tempting and I wanted to touch it, and I was also drunk.

Theo drove like a maniac, but I could see, even in my drunk state, that he was a master at this. I don’t know if he was ignoring me or concentrating on driving because anytime I asked him a question he didn’t respond.

“Fine!” I said after he ignored my last question. “Ignore me all you want, grumpy. Just tell me you’ve got drinks at home” I said and again he ignored me. I sighed, it was frustrating to talk to someone and they just ignored you. For a moment I considered scaring him for fun but I realized he was driving and doing that could mean our deaths.

“So tell me, do you have a girlfriend?” I asked but was met with stony silence—again.

“Gosh you’re a dork. So boring, no fun. What year were you born?” I asked. He slammed his foot on the brakes and I looked out the window to see that we were in front of a mansion that looked like Bill Gates lived in it.

“This is your house. It’s even bigger than my ex husband’s” I said and he turned. His blue eyes were like springs.

“Ex husband?” He asked and I smiled.

“So the cat was given back his tongue huh? I thought you were ignoring me” I said and he shook his head. He stared ahead, drumming his fingers on the steering wheel.

“I am not ignoring you. It’s just tactics, it’s best to let a drunk person talk to themselves, they’ll sober up” he stared at me and I chuckled.

“I am not drunk” I said and his lips lifted up into a cocky smile. The first time I had seen him smile and oh my days……..he looked so handsome. He couldn’t be real, could he?

“Yes you are” he said and I frowned.

“No I am not” I insisted. His blue eyes danced with humor.

“You reek of alcohol, you are clearly drunk” he said and I grinned at him.

“Are you gonna have s*x with me then? I heard s*x in the car is a thrilling experience” I said. He looked off guard for a moment trying to see if I was serious and I was.

“No” he was smiling fully now and I was starting to feel weird in my stomach. Like something was flying about in it.

“Why?” I asked and he shrugged.

“I don’t have s*x with drunk girls,” he said. I stared into those sapphire eyes. I couldn’t deny how lost I was in them, I don’t know if it was being drunk that was affecting me or something else but part of me wanted to let go of Tanner completely even if it meant rolling in the sheets with a stranger.

“What if the drunk girl wants you to?” I said, eyeing his lips and he smiled.

“She’ll sleep it off because I won’t do that” he said and I raised a brow……strange.

“What if she begs you, begs you like she’s gonna die if you don’t do it.” She said and Theo’s eyes darkened with intensity.

“That’s different. I……..,,”

“Please” I begged. Theo stared at me in surprise. I leaned in till I was a breath away.

“Please kiss me, make love to me, do anything you want I just need to forget. Please, please” I pleaded near tears and he sighed. He brushed loose hair from my face. For a person I just met hours ago it felt like I had known him a long time.

“I want to kill the man who broke your heart,” he said. His eyes roamed my face and settled on my lips

“I don’t care about him, I want you to kiss me,” I said. I could literally feel our breath fusing.

He brushed his against mine softly, but I wanted more. I dug my fingers into his hair and pulled him closer, deepening the kiss. He tasted like a drug, intoxicating my brain and doing wicked things to my body. His hands found the curve of my butt and squeezed. I involuntarily let out a moan and pressed into him. I wanted more, I wanted more than just kissing.

I reached for his shirt but he grabbed my hands and stopped me. His hands were as strong as pincers.

“That’s enough” he said, his hair was messy where I had dug my fingers into. His eyes were fierce like he was fighting something inside him.

“What? Am I not woman enough to make you even want me?” I was offended now and he sighed.

“If I give in to what I am feeling I’ll make love to you all night. I won’t be able to stop” he growled. His eyes burned bright with intensity.

“Then do it. It’s what I want” I pressed my breast into him and he sighed. He pushed open the car door and got out and opened the door on my side. I tried to walk on my own but my feet wobbled and I fell hard on the paved ground.

“s**t! I am so f*****g clumsy. I am so stupid! Stupid” I said breaking down into a sob. Theo scooped me into his arms and carried me inside. I buried my face into his chest as I let the tears flow, but at the same time I felt so safe in his arms, the feel of his heart beating, his warmth.

That was the last thing I remembered before I fe

ll asleep. But the rhythm of his heart kept playing in my dreams.
