Adamant(Book 1)

Meeting the Band/Friends

Giselle POV

I woke up the next morning to something hard under my head. I glanced upwards and saw Riley texting away on his phone. I ran my gaze down his body and I couldn't help but be completely in awe of it. I glanced at his stone hard chest and gently ran my fingers on it feeling his warm skin and the dampness of the sweat on his body. I still can't believe that I'm married and to a world-famous rock star of all people.

I wonder why does he want me? He could have any girl he wanted and he settled for some boring, mousy librarian from Denver. I know that I'm not ugly but the women that he usually associates with are beyond beautiful and they live lives more to his pace. I don't get why I agreed to this in the first place. I saw Jodi and Kent getting married and I guess I wanted what they had. I felt betrayed since Jodi is my best friend and she knew how I felt about Kent. But Kent was only interested in flings. I don't know how Jodi was able to tame him but I felt so disgusted and heartbroken that my best friend and crush were getting married in Vegas. They asked me to come along and be a witness and I had no idea how to refuse them. Jodi gave me these looks the whole time...almost like she was trying not to gloat. Kent was not much better as he kept giving me this taunting smirk.

After they got married, I split off from them and went to a club. I originally wanted to get drunk and hook-up with a guy to stop the pain but I remembered the promise I made to my mother. She was dying of stomach cancer and asked me if I had been intimate with a man. I was only 19 years old and I told her no. She asked me to be married first before I gave away my virginity. I thought it would keep her alive if I promised her that but she died 3 days later. After that I struggled to make it. Since I wasn't really doing much dating, I graduated from college and got a job working in a children's library. I still work there but I don't know if I want to try something new or stick around.

I went to the bar and had the bartender pour me a glass of coke. I drank it trying to figure out what to do next when I saw a really hot guy looking at me. His muscles flexed under his shirt and he looked at me with this deep lust in his eyes. I broke eye contact but he began walking over to me. Then he told me the most idiotic pick-up line I ever heard. "My two favorite things are commitment and changing myself".

He flirted with me but I knew what he was really after. He wanted to fuck me and then I would never see him again. I shot him down twice but he was adamant in trying to convince me to go out with him.

I finally agreed to dinner with Riley Thornton which was his name. While eating dinner I admitted I was a virgin to him which surprised him. I then admitted to being jealous of my friends being here to get married and that I wanted that happiness. He then out of the blue proposed to me! I was hesitant but all the wine I had led me to agree to this.

After getting married I was stunned that I was no longer a virgin. I felt like I let my mom down but Riley suggested breakfast and we went for food and got to know each other better. After breakfast Riley made love to me. I always heard from my friends that sex is great but when Riley went at me it was indescribable. I loved everything about the experience. The way his lips caressed my body, the taste of his skin, and mostly the feeling of him inside me. My walls were pushed aside to make room for his shaft and it fit perfectly inside of me. Afterwards he gave me a rough kiss on the lips and then on the forehead and then on the nose which was just the cutest thing ever.

I was broken out of my reverie when Riley nuzzled his nose into my neck. I tried to squirm but his large frame kept me pinned to him. Then I felt his lips kiss my neck and then he licked a stripe from my neck to the ear and he mumbled "Afternoon gorgeous."
