Chapter 1

 

'Lucy, what are you doing here?'

'Hello lover, I thought I would surprise you. Aren't you going to invite me in?'

I knew of many men who would have been more than happy to see a smoking hot blonde in a dress that left little to the imagination leaning against their doorway.

But I was not most men, and Lucy was the last person I wanted to see. We had been fucking for the past couple of weeks after I had spotted her at an exclusive London club. I could not deny she was a very sexy lady, and we had had a lot of mutual fun together in a short space of time, but as far as I was concerned, the party was over, and along with it, our short love affair!

'You should have called before you came over. I was in the middle of something.' I tried to speak calmly and hide my irritation as I reluctantly moved to the side to let her into my flat.

'Really, what were you doing? I tried to call, but you wouldn't pick up your phone,' she pouted her red lips at me.

I remained silent as I sat down on my sofa and switched off my TV. I knew Lucy felt awkward not knowing what to do with herself when I did not offer her a seat. I regretted breaking my rule of never bringing a girl to my London flat so soon in the dating process instead of shagging my dates at their own apartments where I could easily leave without a trace.

'Oh come on, Aiden. Don't be angry with me, I wanted to see you. Is that so wrong?' She walked cautiously over in my direction before taking a seat next to me on the sofa. I felt her well-manicured hand running down my chest before she leaned in, boldly placing her lips on my own.

Frustratingly, I could not help but find myself responding to her. She did have some knowledge of how to press my buttons-I would give her that!

I groaned as I felt her start to stroke my growing manhood through my trousers. Now taking the lead, I pushed her soft, toned body onto the sofa underneath my own. Hastily, I reached under her dress to find her bare flesh, all the while deepening the kiss between us as our mouths interlocked.

'Oh Aiden, I missed you, and now I can see that you missed me too,' Lucy spoke breathlessly against my mouth, her words destroying the magic of the moment as I felt all the desire that had stirred inside me begin to fade.

'Dammit Lucy, why did you have to go and say that?' I moved off from her as I sat up on the sofa.

'What's wrong, Aiden? What did I say that was so wrong?'

'You know what you said! I told you from the start that I didn't want anything serious, that I was not looking for a relationship. I thought you understood that too.'

'I did . . . I do?' I could hear her almost pleading.

'Then why all the phone calls and text messages, not to mention turning up at my door unannounced?'

'But I thought we were having fun, that you enjoyed my company. Why are you acting so cold now?'

'I did enjoy your company. We had some fun, but that's all . . . it's over,' I spared Lucy no mercy, wanting her to get the message plain and clear and avoid a repeat performance of today.

'If that's how you feel, I'll go and leave you to get on with your busy day,' I could hear a mixture of anger and confusion in Lucy's voice as she stood up, pulling down her dress to appear more decent. I knew that she was not used to men turning her down, and she had supposed incorrectly that I would drop everything when she graced me with her presence.
