Page 61 of Unforgettable You

The book turned out to be a bunch of my favorite tropes and micro tropes all stuffed in a hilarious plot. This author always delivered.

I yawned as I finished a chapter and then heard a noise. A buzzing. A loud buzzing. And then I heard a moan.

What. The. Fuck.

It was Sophie.

Chapter Twenty-Four

Sophie

I was pissed. I understood why she left, but that didn’t mean I was happy about it. She was holding back from me and I didn’t like it. I wanted to kiss her. She wanted to kiss me. The only thing in our way was her and I guess I’d had enough with Reid pulling away.

Just knocking on her door wasn’t enough because she could ignore me. Or yell at me to go away. It was late, too, and I didn’t want to bother the neighbors, which is how I got the idea to get out my wand vibrator and make some noise that I knew she’d hear.

I wasn’t actually masturbating, but I was completely turned on and ready if she decided to ignore me. Tonight I was getting off.

With one ear pressed up against the wall, I listened for her to pound on the wall.

Nothing.

I increased the speed on the vibrator and made my moans louder. Could she tell I was faking?

Silence next door. I was about to up the ante when someone knocked on my front door. Fear and excitement exploded in my stomach and I wondered if I’d gone too far.

Being bold wasn’t my thing, but I’d gotten tired of doing nothing. Of not having what I wanted.

And I wanted Reid.

I turned off the vibrator but brought it with me to the door.

“Can I help you?” I asked, locking eyes with an irritated Reid. Her hair was damp, and she wore only a long T-shirt and a pair of shorts underneath. No bra.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” she asked as I backed into my apartment. She followed me, shutting the door behind her and locking it.

Oh. Shit.

Reid was mad. I’d never seen that look on her face.

“I’m sorry! I was just—” I stopped talking when she reached me.

“You were just making noise to get me to come over here?” she asked, her breaths coming in rapid pants.

“Yes?” I squeaked.

Reid took the vibrator from me. “You know they make quieter ones, right?”

I licked my suddenly dry lips. “I know. But I like this one.”

Reid had me trapped. I was utterly at her mercy in a way that I’d never been before. Blood pounded in my ears and my heart and my clit and I was so turned on that my legs started to shake.

Reid shut her eyes and inhaled.

“Fuck,” she said under her breath before she opened her eyes and kissed me.

She swallowed the little sound of surprise I tried to let out before I melted into her and gave myself over to the kiss. This one was different than the others. Aggressive and almost angry. Like she’d been holding back and now she’d had enough so she was giving me everything.

She could. Give it to me. I’d take it. I’d take it and hold it and cherish it and adore it.
