Amongst the Stars [WIP]

Sol pressed AJ against the wall, still holding her arm above her head. His nose practically touched hers. The heat of his breath covered her face, but somehow it sent chills through her body. Her heartbeat quickened so much it felt like it was about jump out of her chest.

“Tell me this doesn’t make you excited,” Sol growled at AJ. She didn’t respond. He could always arouse her. “You’re my wife, not his.”

“Max is just a friend,” AJ lied, but his intense glare deepened. He didn’t believe her.

“I can give you more than he ever could.”

“You can’t give me freedom from this life,” she snapped and pushed him away, but he didn’t want to let her go. She could have taken him down easily, but it would have exposed her even more than she already was. He knew about her outlawed affair; he didn’t need to know about her unlawful second life.

With his body against hers, he whispered in her ear,
“I know I satisfy you way more than he does. You only fuck with him, because he’s an Associate.” Hearing him say the word “fuck” was troubling. It was only used by the Drudge Class, and one of the few words illegal to use by the Stars and Royals. But what he said wasn’t wrong. Max had always been her way of rebelling just a little. And Sol was better in bed.

“I just want to be free,” she muttered.

“I know,” he replied. It was a heartfelt statement. “I love you,” he sighed and began to kiss her neck. I love you too, she thought as she let the wild beast that wanted him out.
