No, it’s a stupid thought. I’m the one chasing after her. The girl wears all her emotions on her face. If anything, I’m trying to come up with a reason why she’s so easily turned me inside out.

There is something alluring about her. The world hasn’t jaded her yet. If anything, she wants to get away from it. I’d dug up all her college acceptance letters. None were close to home. Which I don’t understand because one of the best Ivy League colleges is not far from here.

She hasn’t committed to any of the schools yet. Some of the deadlines were up, but none of that really mattered. Not with her being connected to our family. If she decides she wants to go, our name alone and a little donation to the school of her choice will get her in. I don’t understand her. She wants to get away from here, but she doesn’t actually want to go to college?

This girl has me chasing my tail trying to figure her out. I may not be able to get a read on her, but I know one thing for certain: I fucked up. At least I should call it a fuck-up, but that’s not what I consider me coming all over her pussy. Just seeing my release coating her bare pussy made me want to beat my chest like a fucking caveman.

I might be walking in my own father’s footsteps. Though mine was no accident. I knew what I was doing. And I want to do more where Molly is concerned.

Molly

“So?” I whisper to Emily. “Are you not going to tell me?”

“Thanks for covering for me.” Her response doesn’t give me much. Not long after Asher left my room, I got a text from Emily that if anyone asked about her to tell them she was still sleeping or in the shower. Which I did when I’d finally gone down to breakfast.

Our parents didn’t push for more information, but Emily pretty much comes and goes as she pleases. She always has a million things going on, so it’s not out of the ordinary for her not to be around. Plus, there are a hundred people on the grounds of the estate right now getting ready for this party.

I peeked outside to see this giant tent thing that had chandeliers hanging in it. Flowers are lining walkways and wrapping around everything. It looks like a flower garden exploded out there or something.

“Makeup artist really covered up that hickey.” Emily’s whole face flushes red.
