Chapter 250
Chapter 250:
I shrugged. “She told me I was beautiful p>
“That’s all p>
“She also asked if I knew a certain lady. I told her I didn’t and left p>
He handed the tablet back to his partner. “And did you two talk at the party p>
I swallowed. “Yes p>
“Where p>
“She followed me away from the party. I was actually shocked to see her. She told me she was into girls and liked me, which was why she approached me at the mall the previous day. But I’m not into girls, so I ran away and left her there p>
He held my stare with a gravity that pinned me in place.
I added, “While we were talking, I think someone was watching us. I heard footsteps, but when I went to check, I didn’t find anyone. That was just before I left. It was the last time I saw the Executioner p>
“Do you think this person might have been following your partner?” Jaris asked. “Maybe she’s the Siphon, and when Lyric left, she went in and attacked p>
The tall man held my stare a moment longer before sighing and looking away. “So far, she’s telling the truth. Are there any cameras where this happened p>
“Sadly, no p>
He nodded. “I guess we’ll just question the others and see what they know. Our culprit is definitely close.” He turned to me. “Thank you for your time p>
They went out the door, giving me the chance to release the long breath I’d been holding. I hadn’t lied. I’d only told half the truth, and to them, it was still the truth.
Jaris, however, stayed behind.
“Why didn’t you tell me you’d met this woman before p>
I fumbled with the bedcover. “I—I’m sorry. I just didn’t want to make it seem weird that a dead woman had been hitting on me p>
He shook his head. “Take care. I’ll check on you later p>
The moment he left, I broke into tears.
The week passed in a blur and turned into two. I was completely fine and ready to get back to TCH the following day. My relationship with Jaris had gotten better—both physically and in the dreams. We were freer with each other and even cracked jokes from time to time. This side of him was exciting.
That night in my dream, he made love to me in a different way. He gave me the one thing I’d always fantasized about. He pleasured my clit with his tongue, and I had the best kind of orgasm ever.
When I woke up in the morning, I could still feel the impact of the dream. There was a constant sweetness in my lower belly and a warmth that spread each time I remembered how good it felt. It was crazy how real these dreams always were, yet I was sure that’s all they were.
Jaris might have become friendly with me, but I was sure he wasn’t sexually attracted to me. He wouldn’t do the things he did to me in the dreams in reality. No, I was sure he’d never touch me that way.
