Chapter 10
Teal~
A week later, and I still had no idea what I was going to do.
Because I’d been one of the contacts when installing the new security system, Riaz had been given my phone number, and while that hadn’t been a problem at the time, all of his unanswered texts and phone calls were.
Now, was I being a coward? Possibly. However, I was still processing what had happened last week, and Riaz Marco was a distraction that I didn’t need.
Granted, I couldn’t lie and say that I hadn’t had the best time of my life that night, because I’d had.
The experience had been everything that I’d ever dreamed and hoped, and all three men had been exceptionally sweet after it’d all been said and done.
For three hours, they had used me in every way imaginable, and when I finally couldn’t take it anymore, Riaz had helped me to my car, then had followed me home to make sure that I’d made it home safely, and it was that consideration that had me avoiding him now.
Somewhere between falling asleep and waking up in the morning, I had fallen for Riaz Marco, and I was pretty sure that I wasn’t supposed to.
I mean, for all that Riaz had participated seamlessly in my little fantasy, I just couldn’t see him wanting to date me after watching me get railed by two strange men and loving it like prostitution was going to be my new profession.
After all, while it was one thing to help make a random woman’s fantasy come true, it was quite another to watch your girlfriend get railed by three cocks.
Shaking my head, I let out a heavy sigh before grabbing my purse and bag, then leaving my classroom for the day. It was Friday, and while I did have a couple of things to work on this weekend, for the most part, I had nothing planned for two whole days, and I couldn’t wait.
However, that feeling of much-needed relief quickly vanished when I got to the parking lot to see Riaz leaning up against my car, waiting for me.
As soon as I was close enough, he said, “Before you give me any shit about not respecting your workplace or need for professionalism, I wouldn’t be here if you had just answered one of my goddamn texts or phone calls.”
Okay, then.
“Look-”
“Plus, how fucked up is it that you couldn’t reply to the texts that asked if you were okay?” he went on, and that one hit its mark. “After everything that happened, you could have been decent enough to let me know that you were okay physically, if nothing else.”
Since it was obvious that I needed to get comfortable for this, I adjusted my purse and bag over my shoulder, but as soon as I did, Riaz was reaching for both items, muttering under his breath like I was the bane of his existence.
“Give me that,” he ordered before adding, “Open your door.”
I did as he’d ordered, and as soon as I did, he was placing my stuff in the front seat of my car, and I couldn’t lie and say that his display of consideration wasn’t making me feel things.
It was obvious that he was angry and frustrated with me, but that still wasn’t stopping him from putting me first, and that wasn’t something that you saw often.
Getting to the subject at hand and why he was here, he looked back down at me, saying, “What the fuck, Teal? Why have you been ignoring me?”
“Can we talk about this somewhere else?” I asked, though I probably wasn’t entitled to that at this point.
“No,” he answered like I had suspected. “Just...just let me know if you’re okay, and then I’ll leave you alone.”
Well, that was one way to feel like an asshole.
“Ruiz, I’m sorry-”
“Just let me know if you’re okay, Teal,” he repeated. “Just...I need to know that we didn’t hurt you or...something like that.”
My chest ached with the realization of what I had unknowingly put this man through this past week.
While I’d been cowering in embarrassment, Riaz had been worried about my physical wellbeing, and instead of just sending a quick reply to his numerous texts, I had forced him to suffer in silence, and talk about a dick move.
I really had made it all about myself, and discarding him like that had not been fair or even reasonable after everything that had happened.
“I’m fine,” I finally assured him. “I promise.”
Riaz let out a heavy sigh, and I couldn’t remember the last time that I’d felt this bad.
Seriously.
“Good,” he said, his voice no longer sounding harsh. “That’s all I wanted to know.”
“No, wait,” I quickly rushed out, stepping towards him because he deserved an explanation. “I just...I was embarrassed.”
His brows immediately furrowed. “Of what?”
“I just...I guess I’m still having trouble...trouble...”
“Baby, just say it,” he said as his hands landed on my shoulders, rubbing them soothingly.
“I’m embarrassed for enjoying myself so much,” I finally confessed. “And...and I was worried that you...that you might see me differently now.”
His brows jumped high, giving me hope. “Are you out of your mind? Watching you lose all your inhibitions was the sexiest thing that I’ve ever seen in my life.”
My cheeks immediately blushed. “Riaz...”
Taking my face in his hands, he said, “Teal, that night hasn’t changed anything that I think or feel about you. You’re still the same intelligent, strong, capable, caring person that you were when I first met you.” He let out another sigh. “Baby, it was just sex.”
“You don’t...it really doesn’t bother you?” I asked earnestly.
“If it did, then I would have walked out of that room after the first time that you gave yourself to us,” he replied easily, and the hope that I felt was nearly strangling me.
“Now, is it something that I want to do regularly? I honestly can’t answer that at this point.
However, that’s because I don’t want our relationship to just be nights at The Fantasy Factory.
I want this to be a normal relationship with a normal routine and normal obstacles. ”
“You...you want to date me?” I asked, needing to hear it in clear terms.
Riaz let out a low chuckle, placing his hands back on my shoulders. “I thought that was pretty obvious by now, baby.”
“I’m just...I guess I’m just still processing,” I muttered lamely.
Instead of humoring me, he said, “That’s understandable after everything that you went through, but why can’t we process it together? After all, it was a first for me, too.”
After a few seconds, I asked, “Do you have any plans for tomorrow?”
Riaz shook his head. “No, but if I did, I’d cancel them if it means spending time with you.”
That got a genuine smile out of me. “Well, I’ve had a long week, and so I’d like to go home, get comfortable, eat some dinner, and then just spend the night on the couch.”
His eyes narrowed a bit. “Okay...”
“And I’d like it very much if you’d join me for all of it,” I said, taking the plunge, though this was probably scarier than taking on a gangbang. After all, an orgy wasn’t capable of breaking my heart.
Riaz’s face softened, and he really was a good-looking sonofabitch. “There’s nothing else that I’d rather do, baby.”
Then, because I needed to make things clear, I said, “Also, for as much as I enjoyed myself, I’m not sure if that’s anything that I’ll ever want to do again.
While I can’t promise to rule it out completely, it was a lot, and I know that the only reason that I enjoyed myself was because I knew that you’d make sure that nothing bad happened to me. ”
“Teal, I’ll always make sure that nothing bad ever happens to you,” he assured me before kissing me on my forehead.
“In bed or out of it, I’ll always take care of you.
” Pulling back, he looked down at me. “As for anything that may come up in the future, I’m not opposed to talking about it.
Plus, I’d rather cross that bridge when we get there, rather than borrow unnecessary trouble. ”
I gave him a grateful smile. “I guess that’s what toys are for, right?”
“Baby, I’ll be more than happy to use whatever toy you want on you in whichever way you need,” he smirked. “Just never be afraid to be honest with me.”
Yeah, Riaz Marco was one of the good guys, and how I was lucky enough to find him, I’d never know, but I wasn’t going to let self-doubt ruin this for me.
“So, what about dinner?” I grinned.
“What if I said that you’re what I want to eat for dinner?” he asked, arching a brow.
“I can’t say that I’d object,” I answered truthfully.
“That’s good, baby,” he murmured before taking me in his arms. “That’s good.”
