Chapter 111

DANTE
Even though the trip went well and the deal was done, I still feel anxious. It feels like the plane is moving backwards instead of forward. I want to say I don’t know why I feel this way, but I do. It’s because of her. Her body, that is. After spending time away from her, I’ve finally figured out what’s driving me crazy. Sex with Corina. Thing is, I had an obsession that lasted for a year and now that we’ve finally slept together, that obsession has ratcheted and the only way to be rid of it is to fuck her until it’s over. That’s my new mission. And that is why I’m eager to get back home. It has nothing to do with missing her. I don’t miss her contentious manner, which I hate, or her stubbornness, which I hate even more.
The car ride back to the casino feels like forever. I sent her a message as soon as the plane landed that I’m back, but she hasn’t responded yet. Whatever, I’m sure she’s seen it. I don’t want to bother with a call or another message. It will seem a little needy and I am not that needy, I assure myself.
