UNHOLY DESIRE
Jay Mhekzywaiter story
He was standing at the bar counter, a shot glass in his hand, but his eyes never left mine.
I gently bit my lower lip, making my way towards the staircase and towards my room. However, I halted when I heard his voice.
"Fiore mio (My Flower)," Matteo said, his voice soft.
But I knew there was nothing endearing about what he had called me. Every time he used endearments, it felt like mockery, and I despised it.
I turned to him and asserted, "I am Deirdre. Deirdre Tiaraoluwa Siobhan O'Sullivan. You can use any part of that name, and I'll respond to you."
