Chapter 16 - Sex On Legs

▪️J A D E▪️

I was feeling a little peckish, so I decided to nibble on some left-over brownies that I had made earlier that day.

The house was mostly quiet, seeing as it was 2am and many of the men were out on their nightly runs, doing what they did best, no doubt. I should have been out at a party near campus with Blaire and the others, but I was not feeling it tonight, so I decided to stay home.

With a satisfied sigh, I bit into my brownie, then sipped on some milk.

I was sitting at the kitchen island scrolling through my phone, giggling softly as I looked at pictures being posted from the party. My eyes scanned Blaire's half-naked body as Rosita drank shots off of her. I wrinkled my nose at how close the both of them had been since the first day that we met. It was as though they had known each other forever and I could not help the jealously that flowed through me.

Blaire was my best friend, not hers! I silently grumbled to myself.

Perhaps it was one of the reasons that I could not stand Rosita. I felt threatened by her presence for some reason, and I did not like how close her and Blaire seemed to be at times. My thoughts were interrupted when I heard someone entering the kitchen.

"Shouldn't you be asleep?" Dominic asked in a deep voice.

The three top buttons of his shirt were undone and his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. His hair was slightly dishevelled and his brows were lightly creased as he looked at me, then at the brownies on the kitchen island.

"Shouldn't you be out fucking some whore?" I replied matter-of-factly, trying to ignore the exposed skin of the top of his chest.

I was still upset about how distant he had been with me. It felt unfair how he had pushed me away, and when he did talk to me, he was always biting my head off for no reason. To be honest, I thought things would have gone back to normal since I had a boyfriend now. I just wished that Dominic and I could go back to being how we were before things had gotten awkward between us.

"Excuse me?" he asked in a low voice. Simultaneously, he stopped reaching for a brownie to come and stand next to me instead.

Looking up at him, I simply replied, "You heard me. I'm not a child anymore, I'm not stupid. You've barely been home these last few weeks and neither Vincent nor any of the men were with you. Clearly you've been having a time at Aleksandr's brothels."

"Watch your fucking mouth, Jade. I'm not in a mood for your insolence right now," Dominic threatened, clearly annoyed that I even knew such places existed.

"You're never in the mood for anything these days," I mouthed back, ignoring his warning as I finished off my brownie and downed my milk, my tongue snaking out to clean my upper lip.

Sighing heavily, he briefly closed his eyes, "I swear, your brashness is even worse now that you have your first boyfriend. They weren't lying when they said that having sex and getting into relationships causes young females to get an attitude"

I looked at him but did not reply, neither confirming nor denying that Cristiano and myself were engaging in sexual activities. It was not his business anyway, and I could do whatever I wanted with my body. Besides, I was sure that he did not want to know the details of what we would get up to in the back of Cristiano's car.
