Romeo's Secrets by Ella Price Page B

feel.” He sounded sad which wasn’t normal for him.
    I
looked up at him determined to make him feel better. “Is there something
wrong?”
    He
looked at me for a moment then shook his head and sat up. I shifted so he could
get up. I couldn’t help but be a little disappointed.
    I
decided to change the subject. I wanted to see if I could find out more about
him. “Is your real name Romeo?”
    He
smiled as he poured a drink. “No it’s James.”
    I
was a little relieved he didn’t deflect. I didn’t know why I was so sure he was
going to try to. “Do you have family here?”
    His
expression changed and I could see him close down. He wasn’t going to tell me
anything. “How are the articles going?” He acted like I didn’t even ask him a
question.
    I
sighed and picked at my fingernails. “Good, I guess.” 
    He
came over to me and covered my mouth with his. His kiss was tantalizing and
full of need. I laid back as he climbed on top of me. We kissed slowly. He made
no move to get my clothes off, so I didn’t try to get his off.
    He
pressed his forehead to mine and his eyes were full of sadness. “I am selling
the club.”
    He
spoke slowly and I felt my chest tighten. Normally I would have been happy to hear
it. I didn’t like the club but now I wasn’t so sure anymore. The expression on
his face scared me. He was losing part of himself.
