How did he even get in? It could be that I left the door unlocked as I remember rushing in to check my cousin.

I pull my hand away from Jerry’s hold. Again. I look at Antwan with pleading eyes. This is between me and my cousin. But he comes forward threateningly.

“Antwan,” I say with a warning tone.

Jerry chuckles softly, with effort. “You can’t hold onto her if she doesn’t let you, can you, Antwan?”

“Jerry,” I hiss, turning to look at him. “What you said—”

“I think you already know what I want you to know. But I was going to say that I’ll do my best to move on now that you found yourself a rich guy,” he speaks bitterly. Pain crosses his eyes.

I gulp down hard the invisible lump in my throat. It does give me a kick somewhere in my heart. But I’ve never meant this to happen. Besides, he’s not supposed to love me like we’re not blood-related for fucking sakes! I’m his first cousin! His mother is my mother’s sister. How could he?

“Jerry, I’m sorry,” I honestly sympathize to him. Although I have never been in love, I already know how much it hurts when love is not given back, when it’s just one-sided. I’m not that unfeeling.

Antwan holds my hand firmly and waves his index finger at my cousin. “You stay away from Prosalie from now on! Or else, I’ll make you regret you’ve ever been born.” He drags me out of Jerry’s apartment unit, almost harshly.

Inside my own apartment, he paces like a caged animal. “You move in with me in the penthouse,” he utters.

I scoff at this idea. “You heard him. He’ll move on, Antwan, so there’s no reason for me to do that. Besides—”

He stops pacing. He faces me with a scowl. “No, that’s not my only reason. I wanted to do this properly. But now, I change my mind.”

“Huh?” I look at him with confusion, eyebrows clashing.

“I can’t wait to live with you, baby, so I don’t have to worry about whether or not someone comes into your apartment without my knowledge.”

I laugh at him. But he still looks fucking serious. My smile suddenly fades away.

“Wait. A-are you proposing to me… just now?” I ask in disbelief, lips ajar.

He blinks like he’s unsure for the first time in his life. Or is it because of fear that I might turn him down?

My heart melts at that very moment. The mighty Antwan looks without confidence for the first time.

I purposely walk toward him and pull his head to kiss him fully on the lips.

“Truth is… I can’t wait to wake up every morning and give you a blowjob,” I smilingly promise him, batting my lashes.

He grins widely upon hearing it. “I was dreaming of waking you up with a kiss on your lips down there,” he says, caressing my V area in a suggestive manner.

I giggle, and he gives me another passionate kiss.

“I so love you, Prosalie baby!”

“Antwan…”

“I don’t fucking believe in love at first sight but I already lost my heart to you the first night we spent together. You should know by now I can’t fucking afford to lose you, baby!” His eyes speak more than that, making my heart dance.

“I think that’s the sweetest thing you ever told me, Antwan,” I demurely comment.

He gives me a hot kiss, making me moan.

“I should take care of giving you sweet things from now on. I’ll give you numerous sweet lovemaking…” he pauses as he gives me a sweet kiss on the lips. “I’ll give you countless sweet kisses and everything sweet that you may demand from me. I won’t mind.”

I smile at him widely and embrace him tightly.

“Yes, I demand sweet love from now on.”
