“I don’t know what to say.” Tears welled up in her eyes. “You called me a gold digger, Cristoff. A fu*king gold digger.”
Her voice was much softer than she would have wanted it to be.
“I know and I am sorry,” he said in a soft voice. “I am really, really sorry.”
He reached for her hand but she pulled it back. He was not giving up. He reached for her hand again and brought his head down to kiss her knuckles. Carla felt a wave wash over her when his soft, warm lips touched the skin on her knuckles. He looked up into her eyes and brought another hand up to hold the side of her face. She closed her eyes and a tear rolled down her left cheek. She wanted to say something. Say anything but she was speechless. She felt her heart skip a beat when he shifted his weight to get himself closer to her.
“Cristoff, you need to stop,” she whispered. “You have to leave.”
She had her eyes closed. She could not bring herself to be any louder than a simple whisper. All he was doing was touching her hand and cheek but it was intoxicating. She was a slave to him and he knew it. He knew it a little too well, which was why he was getting closer and closer to her instead of simply leaving. She opened her eyes and again, her heart skipped a beat when she saw just how close he was to her.
“I miss you, Carla,” he said in a soft voice.
“Cristoff, please,” she begged but he was not moving.

His hand slid down her cheek to her neck before he slipped it around her neck, holding her possessively. It was a power move. He was making her know that he was the one holding the reins at that moment. That even though she was begging him to leave, he would only leave when he wanted to. At that moment, she could not help but realize just how much like Christian Grey he was. He had this dark side to him that she did not understand and perhaps, it was the same dark side that attracted her to him so much.
“I will leave,” he said in a soft voice. “But I will only leave if you tell me that you don’t want me here. That in your heart of hearts, you really do want me gone.”
His other hand released her hand and slowly made its way to her face. He was now holding her cheek and the back of her neck. He was so close to her that she could feel his warm breath on her skin. He leaned in and gently brushed her lips with his before he pulled back briefly. She knew that this was it. This was her chance to pull back and stand her ground. Her chance to get him to leave the apartment but instead he leaned in again and kissed her again, this time a longer kiss. A deeper kiss that showed her just how much he was feeling for her.

She closed her eyes.
“Don’t say things you don’t mean,” she whispered back. “Don’t make promises you can’t keep.”
