CHAPTER 16: CHAPTER 16 I FOUND YOU

Still reeling in the moment he had Alora for the first time.

Caden recalled how he filled her to the brim and yet he wanted more.

More of the pleasure that she could give him.

He braced his weight on his forearms and began to thrust hard and fast. The sound of their flesh meeting and their moans and groans were loud in the quiet room.

Each stroke magnified the sensations that were spiking through him, and she strained up to meet him.

Her head tossed to and fro on the pillow as she felt close.

His hand slid between them to her clit. As he pounded into her, he stroke her clit.

He could see that the combined pleasure made her eyes rolled back.

An intense orgasm rocked through her in dizzying convulsions that spread rapture through her entire body.

His cock plunged deep; once, twice, three times and he spilled inside of her. His shaft throbbing deep inside her.

Shuddering, he collapsed next to her, his heavy breaths warm and moist on her shoulder.

His arms held her close, so close that he could hear every beat of her heart.

He leaned down and kissed my temple.

She looked up at him and he was smiling at her.

“Did you like your first time?”

Alora had beamed, shyly and nodded.

“It’s better than I’ve ever imagined.” She replied.

“I’m glad.” He said,cupping her face.

“Did you...did you like it?Having sex with me?”She murmured.

“I loved it.”

He meant that.

Sex with her had been incredible.

They had sex a couple of times after that and he never got bored, he never got tired of her.

He recalled more memories of them going on dates, taking walks.

He loved her.

He loved Alora.

He deeply regretted that he was just realizing that now.

It was too late.

Alora was far gone.

Caden suddenly lifted his head, a new determination taking hold.

Why should it be too late?

So what if she had gone to London? So what if they would be separated by an ocean?

He had the money and resources to find her!

He would follow her if necessary. As long as she was out there somewhere, he would find a way to tell her how he truly felt.

He wasn’t fully confident that he could win her back, but he had to try!

With renewed purpose, Caden strode to his car, he called the butler again to make sure that the jet was ready and then he drove off.

He had to find the love of his life.

**************

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic.

Three days later, Alora was touring the Royal Acting School campus, trying to absorb everything around her. Though she had only just arrived, she found herself drawn to this new environment. She appreciated the climate, the architecture, but most of all, the respectful distance people maintained from one another.

There were fewer rumors here, less prying into others’ business. Plus, she just got here so nobody knew about her.

More peace of mind for her.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted ahead of her.

Curious, she approached just as Nora, a fellow American student she’d met during orientation, rushed over, excitement written across her face.

“What’s happening up there?" Alora asked, gesturing toward the crowd.

Nora’s eyes sparkled with enthusiasm.

“There’s this incredibly hot guy at the entrance! He’s American too! Absolutely gorgeous and just standing there like he’s searching for someone. The entire school is buzzing, everyone’s trying to get a look at him."

“An American guy?" Alora repeated, a strange unease rippling through her.

She glanced toward the commotion, trying to see past the crowd. That single glance was enough to freeze her in place.

Despite the throng of people, she could clearly make out the tall, unmistakable figure at the center of the attention.

It was Caden.

What the hell?!

Her heart lurched painfully in her chest. What was he doing here? Had he actually come looking for her?

The thought surfaced unbidden, but she immediately dismissed it. She didn’t matter that much to him. She never had.

Maybe he came for something else.

He couldn’t possibly come all the way to London to keep toying with her.

He was definitely here for something else.

She was barely trying to move past him, she didn’t want to have anything to do with him, didn’t even want to see him.

Alora turned to leave, hoping to slip away before he noticed her.

But she was too late.

Across the crowd, Caden’s eyes found her immediately, as though drawn by some invisible force.

His face lit up with recognition, and he called out, his voice cutting through the noise: "Alora!"

She paused at the sound of her name, turning with a mild curiosity that might be afforded to any stranger.

As Caden sprinted toward her across the courtyard, she observed him with detached interest, as though watching a scene in a film that held no personal significance.

The distance wasn’t great, but he ran as though his life depended on it like an Olympic sprinter in the final stretch of a race. His usually perfect appearance was disheveled, his face flushed with exertion, his eyes bright with an intensity that seemed excessive and somewhat puzzling to her now.

“Rara," he said, smiling as though he’d discovered a treasure. "I found you."
