VESTA'S POV
I sat stiffly on the plush couch, trying not to squirm under Dr. Kim's smoldering gaze.
Ever since Miguel had gotten that phone call and excused himself, my pupils averted everywhere except for meeting his. God knows, how awkward it was for me to even come across him.
Seriously. This is not a joke, dear universe. Are you listening? Please tell me it's a joke.
My boyfriend's step father already got to know that I had sex with his step son. Amazing. I mean- it's natural but-
It's AWKWARD.
"So, Vesta..." Dr. Kim's rum-rich voice caressed my name in a way that made my stomach flip. "What a coincidence that you're Miguel's girlfriend. Small world, isn't it?"
I squeezed my thighs together, desperate for any friction to distract me from how heated his stare made me feel. "Yes, quite a coincidence indeed, Dr. Kim."
He tsked softly, leaning back against the couch in that insufferably confident way of his. "Please, we're well beyond formalities. You don't have to be awkward. Relax."
I shifted on the couch, my thighs clenching instinctively at the mortifying memory. " Yeah- it's just that , it's quite a bit coincidence. " I mumbled, unable to meet his blazing dark eyes.
In the blink of an eye, he crossed the space between us in two long strides. My breath caught in my throat as he crouched in front of me, his sculpted face mere inches from mine. This close, I could smell his intoxicating cologne - the same scent that had clouded my senses during my appointment.
"Are you alright, Vesta?" he practically purred, his focus drifting blatantly over my parted lips. "Your pretty cheeks are all red."
Every nerve ending felt at action by his closeness like I'd been struck by lightning. Mortified by my body's reaction, I jerked and backed out.
" Vesta ?" I averted my eyes towards Dr. Kim who was utterly confused at my zoned out state. He was sitting few feet away from me.
Oh. So now I was dreaming? Dreaming about liking the fact about his closeness to me. Great. Haha.
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME NOW.
Miguel stepped back into the sitting room. "Everything okay, babe? You look flushed."
"I'm fine!" I squeaked breathlessly. Dr. Kim's piercing gaze lasered into me from across the room.
My heart thundered in my ears as Miguel settled back onto the couch beside me.
His stepfather's dark, unwavering stare bored into me from across the room, that infuriatingly smug smirk still etched on his unfairly handsome face.
