Honey You Are My Lucky Star (Callen and Chelsea) novel Chapter 29

Harrison finally puts an end to this intense and erotic kiss. Just when I think it's over, his tongue licks the tip of my ear and blows into it. My body instantly goes soft and I lean back in my chair.

He hasn't even left his seat, but has totally turned me on.

No one pays attention to us with all the cars coming and going.

"You like this?" He nibbles on my earlobe and whispers softly.

I am instantly conscious and my body stiffens.

I haven't been intimate with a man since the divorce. His sudden flirtation made me lose myself for a moment.

Suppressing the desire in my heart, I ask, "Can we go now?"

"You don't like it?"

His obsession with my answer turns me off. I speak with a poker face, "I haven't had sex in two years. What do you think?"

"If you're just testing me, I can tell you I'm a woman of sexual desire."

Being played with really pisses me off, but I can do nothing to him. He's not an ordinary man and he's kind of my lifesaver.

"Get out of your head." Harrison can't help but laugh. "I just couldn't help myself. I'm a man of sexual desire."

To hell with him! He's just toying with me.

The difference between humans and animals is that humans can control their own desires. He didn't have to make excuses because I'd taken my clothes off for him before.

That humiliating night will be a thorn in my heart forever.

The car stops at the gate of my community. He looks at me and say, "Have a good rest."

"That's it?" I look to the front and ask hesitantly.

The next I hear him laughing. "If you want, I can take you to my place and get back to what we were just doing."

"Good night!" With that, I quickly jump out of the car.

I walked for a while without hearing the sound of the car driving away. Just when I'm confused, I see a light shining on my way. I stop for a second, but I don't turn around.

When I get to my apartment, the light goes out. I stand still and look at the streetlights in the neighborhood, which are already yellowing because of aging.

With mixed feelings, I touch my lips. They still seem to hold his breath and temperature.

I got very bad sleep this night. I dreamed all night long, repeating the scene in the car. That's why I get up in the morning with dark circles under my eyes.

It's not easy to find a job, and I'm not in the mood to go to work while my mother's in the hospital. In the end, I decide to go to the hospital.

When I arrive at the hospital, the nurse just scrubbed my mom. I ask her, "How is my mom?"

"Great. It won't take long for her to wake up."

With a confused look on my face, I asked, "Why?"

"You don't have to raise your kids, but what if they get sick and your ex-husband's not here? We don't need an employee who's gonna be out of work any minute."

After that, I sit on a chair on the sidewalk, looking at everyone who passes me, imagining their stories and reflecting on myself.

Sienna once said the job market was hostile to married women with children. She told me not to quit when I got married, but all I could think about was love at that time.

And now it's my retribution. All companies want young, unmarried woman.

Without any offer, I go back home. My mind's in a mess, and my future seems to be hopeless.

I can't rely on Harrison forever, can I?

I'm walking home when I suddenly hear someone calling me from behind. As I turn around, I get a slap in the face.

I cover my face with my hands, without knowing what is going on. Then, I look up and see Maisy, who's like a shrew.

"You b*tch, why can't you just go to hell? I warned you to stay out of Callen's face!" Yells Maisy.

This time is just after work and school, so the community is very crowded. Everyone gathers at the sound of her voice.

I hated being watched, which makes me feel like a circus monkey. "You want to be seen as a joke here?"

"They'll only think you're a joke because you seduced my husband!"
