Burn

One night. No consequences.

I should have known it wouldn’t be that simple. I was too connected to Michael Sutherland. Of course I would see him again. But I didn’t expect to see him so soon, or for him to seem so interested.

He’s persistent. Kind. Romantic. I fooled myself into believing a few more nights wouldn’t hurt. I liked his command in the bedroom and enjoyed the results. It wasn’t more.

Except that he was more. Better than anyone I’d ever met before. Someone I wasn’t sure I could live without.
