Denise felt spellbound by the dangling necklace before her. She felt heat rise to her cheek as she slowly lifted her eyes and gazed into Fred's sparkling hypnotic eyes. Her heartbeat was banging unsystematically and her head began to spin as memories that were long forgotten came pouring back into her mind.
Although she had been drunk the night she willingly slept with Fred, she was aware of all the things he did for her and to her.
She remembered the way he protected her from the slum dogs at the clubhouse; who came to her with evil intentions of devouring her like a cheap bawd. She recalled how he consoled her when she spoke about her cheating ex and her brokenness. She remembered the way he cared for her after they left the clubhouse. The way he made her moan and cry at the same time when they had sex. The way she kept screaming his name as he took her to fantasy land and back.
