Sealed Fate: Love Found and Lost

"In my head, I knew this wasn't right, but every other fiber of my being screamed otherwise. Our breaths mingled together as our tongues conversed passionately with each other. Had it not been for Jordan's solid grip on my waist, I wouldn't have been able to hold myself up because of how weak my knees felt. He moved his lips from my lips to the hollow portion on my neck and a moan escaped my mouth. If it was the alcohol or the absolute fatal attraction that I had felt for him since the moment we met, I didn't know. All I knew was that this felt euphoric. It felt right and I wanted to feel like this some more." ____________________________________________________ When Skylar Rose lands a job to write a magazine about the infamous playboy of the business world-- Jordan Parker, there is instant attraction.

Maddy is Team Jordan

"You said what?" Jordan asked. 

"I—" I opened my mouth but my words were interrupted by a knock on the door and Maddy peeked inside. 

She walked in and I stepped further away from Jordan. "Hey Jordan, Detective Gage is here for Sky's— Oh," she stopped talking when she sensed the tension in the room. "Am I… interrupting something?" 

"No," I said. I could feel Jordan's eyes still on me. 

"Um," she looked from me to Jordan, her brows cringed in confusion. 

"What's up, Madison?" Jordan turned to her. 

"Well, Detective Gage is here for her statement." She raised her eyebrows at me. "And he wants to talk to you, Jordan." 

"Okay. I'll just…" he looked at me from over his shoulder. "We'll talk later," he said to me. "Freshen up and come downstairs."

"Mhm." I nodded once. "Okay, I'll be down in 10." 

"Okay, I'll tell him that," Jordan said and walked out of the room.
