Chapter 25
Tori's POV
My eyes opened slowly, the sunlight hitting my face in a way that made me squint as I adjusted to the morning glow, and only then did I notice the window I somehow never paid attention to before.
Last night came rushing back all at once, uninvited and heavy, and I felt my stomach tighten at the memory.
How did I let it get that far? How did I allow him to do that to me? I could still feel it so vividly, the way his fingers explored too boldly, the way everything could have crossed a line completely if he hadn't stopped himself when he did.
That was the part that unsettled me the most.
Because he had the chance. He really did and he pulled back. He had the chance to get everything he has always wanted.
And now I was stuck with the question of why someone like him would stop when he clearly didn't have to.
