(#1 in Lust - 16.11.22) Even though I was the one who initiated the kiss, I could tell that I was no longer in control. His large arms wrapped around my waist like tightly-coiled wires, keeping me in place so he could do whatever he wanted with me without interference. There was something dark looming between us and it scared the hell out of me because I knew he was the cause of it. What was I doing? He was dangerous, he had a gun in his desk drawer for God's sake and here I was, a pitiful lovesick girl, kissing him with reckless abandon like he wasn't my boss and I wasn't his employee. I, for some unknown reason, acted uncharacteristically fearless with him and it was very unnerving. I had to put a stop to this before I drowned in the darkness that was Rafael Montero so I pulled back slightly, reluctantly detaching my lips from his.
