Hostile

by Nicole Dykes

There’s no denying my insane attraction to this painfully elusive, beautiful boy. And no part of me wants to fight it.

“It’s the perfect contrast, Rhett. Both are beautiful in their own way. Both bold and strong. His choice of colors and your fearless framing. Just breathtaking.”

Please don’t kick me out, Rhett. I don’t know if my heart could take it.

Because when he does that and kisses me like this, I can trick myself into believing I belong to him.

I know it’s going to hurt like hell when he leaves, but I also know there’s no way he can stay.

I didn’t know it was my job to make him smile until I met him. Now I know. This is my destiny. Making my grumpy guy smile.
