He'd only fucked me out of duty, and now that the all-consuming lust had left us, he didn't want me anymore. He'd made it very clear the sex was only for one night because I would literally die otherwise. And during all that sex, he hadn't kissed me, not even once. “This can’t happen ever again," he said. Then he left without another word. The slam of the door was so loud it vibrated through me.
