Second Chance Scandal

“Yes, that’s right.”
I mockingly grinned, cocking my head to the side. “Again, I have no problem reminding you how much of my dick you can’t take. If you’d like, I’ll bend you over the table right now and have you not walking for days.”
“No thanks. I’d hate to wreck your illusion of how little you rocked my world.”
“How about I wreck your pussy like I did when we made Ben? Maybe we’ll be two for two, and I can knock you up with a little girl this time instead.”
“You’re ridiculous.”
“What’s ridiculous is that you think there’s nothing between us anymore.”
“Oh, trust me, there’s nothing between us anymore.”
I deviously smiled, leaning back against my chair. Little by little, I began taking her in.
“I know you’re full of shit, Soph. How quickly you want to pretend like I still don’t have an affect on you. I took your first kiss, your first touch, your first fuck… I taught you everything you like and love. Do you want to test that theory now, Soph?”
Her skin flushed, and she bit her bottom lip.
“You can continue to pretend with this little game you have going on, but it’s only a matter of time until you’re riding my cock again.”
“In your dreams.”
“You’re not a dream. You’re my reality and soon to be my wife. I know how to please you, Baby Soph.” I didn’t hesitate in adding, “I also know how to love you.”

It was like a bullet to my heart.
“Stop throwing around the word love, Jax. You’re using it exactly how you used me.”
“You need to trust me when I say I won’t hurt you again.”
“Trust you? I can’t believe you have the audacity to ask that of me after how badly you hurt me.”
“I know. I fucked up.”
“It doesn’t matter anymore. It was a long time ago.”
“I looked for you, Sophie.”
My heart skipped a beat.
Stupid heart. Don’t fall for it. Use your brain. You know he’s just trying to manipulate you.
“You’re getting what you want, Jax. You don’t need to tell me what you think I want to hear.”
“I’m telling you what I want you to know. I thought…” He shook his head. “The night we ran into each other, I thought we were starting fresh. I never imagined I’d be waking up alone and you’d be gone. Was that your plan the entire time? Fuck me and leave me?”
“Don’t flatter yourself. I didn’t know you were going to be there that night. Besides, it took you a minute to even recognize who I was, so save the, ‘I know how to love you,’ act. I’m not going to fall for it this time.”
“Have you taken a look at yourself lately? You look nothing like you did in high school. Especially considering what you wore that night. Your little white dress left nothing to the imagination
“You remember my dress?”
