Chapter 80
Camille POV.
"Cami, what is happening here?" Conan growled when he saw my body wrapped in a quilt. "What the fuck is this?"
"I had sex with Scott." I winced at my words as they made me uncomfortable.
"Did he force you?" He bared his teeth, his fists clenched at his side. He appeared hot as lava. If I said yes, he would probably end up killing Scott.
"No." I shook my head. "I just..." I thought of the right word. "It was my choice, Conan."
I saw him exhale sharply as he lowered his head in disappointment. Without a word, he turned around and was about to leave me but I grabbed his hand and stopped him from leaving. "Please, don't go..." I pleaded.
"You promised me you wouldn't let him have you," he said accusingly. "Why did you give me false hope, Cami? Am I fucking stupid?" He turned around aggressively, glaring at me. "I am stupid, aren't I, Cami? You use me when you need me and throw me like a tissue when you don't. What was that Cami, uh? Why the fuck are you playing with my emotions? We have been together for five fucking years but you're still not getting over that bastard. You let him fuck you. You let him touch what was mine." He stepped up to me and grabbed my forearms harshly, shaking me. "Why did you betray me? Why the fuck did you do this to me, Cami? I love you like hell but all you care about is that motherfucker who kicked you out of his life. When he was not there I was there for you and I fucking will be there for you. You lied to me, Cami. You're a fucking liar! You're just fucking up my life. You ..." Conan snapped his mouth shut when he saw my cracked expression. My chin trembled as I met his gaze with a pained smile on my face. "Yes, I'm using you, Conan. Thank you for reminding me of this." Stepping away from him I turned around and disappeared into the bathroom. I quickly curled myself, my body shaking uncontrollably. His words echoed in my head over and over again. Conan was angry with me for the very first time. He had never been this furious before. He has been behaving strangely since the day I moved into Scott's penthouse. Conan was always a loving and charming person but that day he looked dangerous.
Minutes passed but I was unable to move out of the bathroom. It was my fault that I let Scott touch me. I had never intended to have a sexual encounter, but it happened. I just wanted to hurt Scott without letting him get close to me but it just happened. I looked at his finger marks around my forearm. My heart ached thinking about him. I hurt him beyond repair. I betrayed him. I should not have played this dirty game. I should have kept my urges to myself. Shit! I messed up our relationship. Conan and Colette were positive things that happened to me but I was losing them gradually.
"Cami..." Conan knocked on the door softly. "I'm sorry." I felt tears gather in my eyes when I heard his regretful voice. He regretted his actions. "Please come out. I'm fucking sorry."
Tears rolled down my cheeks as I shook my head. "I need some space, Conan."
He said nothing. I didn't hear any movement from outside which meant he was still in the room and sitting somewhere on the floor. I loathed myself for causing him that much pain and I even despised myself for needing Scott. I stood up and washed my face with cold water. I let the sheet slide down my body, gazing at my reflection in the mirror. My nipples were still sensitive and sour, his bite marks were still visible on my shoulders and I could smell him on my body. It was his musky smell that made me realize had just had sex with the man whom I despised the most. The main goal was to destroy him, but instead, I was giving him pleasure.
Reaching out for a towel I tied it around my body before I stepped out. Conan was sitting on the floor with his head lying on the wall and his eyes closed. "Cami..." he blurted once he noticed me. His expression was hurtful. "I wanted to apologize for my harsh words."
"I forgive you, Conan," I said before heading to the fireplace to collect my clothes. My eyes spotted Scott's wallet. I reached out to it, staring at it with a frown. Suddenly, a card slipped from it. I lowered down to reach it and noticed it was Colette's snap. My heart was wrenched. He had her picture in his wallet.
I was alarmed when I heard footsteps echoing outside the room. It didn't take me long to understand who that was. Spinning around I rushed to Conan and fell into his arms. His brows snapped together in confusion when I ripped his shirt off and threw away my towel. "It's Scott," I whispered. "Act like we're having sex."
I flinched when Conan squeezed my ass and pressed me against him. "Ah, Conan!" I faked a moan. "Mmm..."
Suddenly the door opened and a man stepped inside. I was well aware of who he was. I knew the way he walked and smelled. He was there for his wallet. I unbuckled Conan's belt and unzipped his jeans. I ground myself on him harder. Conan faked his groan.
I felt someone was watching us. He was standing in the doorway, frozen and shocked. Taking a fistful of Conan's hair, I stuck my mouth to him, kissing him harder. Scott didn't move as he stared at us. I could feel his sharp intake of breath. Conan stopped moaning when he looked behind me. His grip loosened around my waist as his eyes widened in surprise as if he had just seen a ghost. Frowning, I peered over my shoulder and was shocked to see Rika next to Scott. To my surprise, Scott looked blank, but Rika was furious at me and Conan.
Conan quickly took his hands off me and covered my body with a towel. His look described that he didn't like that Rika caught us together.
"Well, well, well..." Rika snarled. "Your moves are better than those pornos." Rika looked at me from head to toe in disgust. "Since she is already riding I don't think she needs a ride anymore."
My jaw tightened at her words.
I looked at Scott who seemed disinterested as his eyes roamed around for his wallet. Now, I feel stupid. I wanted to hurt Scott but I ended up hurting Rika. I didn't even know why she was hurt. I and Conan got up on our feet. Scott stuffed his wallet in his pocket when he found it and walked away. Rika was still staring at Conan. Conan looked somewhat embarrassed. I felt guilty for putting him in this awkward situation. We planned this for Scott but he looked as cool as a cucumber. "Since you don't need a ride, I'm leaving." She glanced between me and Conan.
"What riding?" I asked.
"Scott has asked me to pick you up but I guess you're busy."
"I'll drop her," Conan said, running his fingers through his hair in irritation.
She didn't wait for a moment and turned around, stalking out of the room. I turned my head to Conan. He was staring at me with raised brows. "I'm sorry."
"Never mind." He sighed and plopped onto the sofa. "Why are you apologizing to me, by the way?"

"You look embarrassed," I mumbled.
"Embarrassed for what?" He questioned and wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me into his lap. "For touching my fiancee?" He laughed and kissed my mouth. "I don't feel ashamed of making love to you in public." "But we're not actually..." My words trailed off. "I used you again."
He shook his head with a small smile. "I regret being harsh to you, Cami. You didn't deserve those harsh words."
"It was all true." I swallowed, looking into his eyes. "I just used you, Conan. I should have married you the day you accepted my daughter."
"We'll get married after six months and if you won't I'll force you to marry me." He grinned and the tension between us melted away. "Well, I want to share very big news with you."
"What is it?"
"We've decided to launch your movie this weekend. Is this okay with you?"
"That's so awesome!" My smile broadened. "This is our first project where we worked together. I hope people will like our chemistry."
"They will like us together."
*********
I was in Scott's penthouse. Conan dropped me at his place. I looked at the calendar and it was only a week since I had been living with Scott. How would I be able to spend three weeks and five months with him? After taking a shower I put on a ruffled A-line dress and let my hair bounce on my shoulder. Stepping out of the room I found Scott sitting at the kitchen counter with a coffee mug. He was typing something on his laptop, his back facing me as he was not aware of my presence.
Silently I entered the kitchen and made myself a coffee and two sandwiches. I placed one in front of him and sat across from him. I didn't know why I chose to sit near him. "How was your shooting?" I asked while taking a bite of my sandwich.

"Okay." I sipped my coffee, observing him quietly. He had light stubble on his jaw, his hair was messy and his look was dishevelled.
"How was yours?" He asked, meeting my gaze.
"It was great!" I faked a wide smile.
"Good." Now I caught his pissed expression. "Conan got you." He sneered. "Rika was hurt to see this scene, by the way."
"And you?" I blurted and regretted it a moment later.
"Yeah, I was burning with anger but you didn't want me to beat him to a pulp, did you Cam?" He shut his laptop loudly. "Well, when I was fucking you four years ago I never slept with Maura. She might have been my fiancée at that time but I stayed loyal to you."
"You remained loyal to me despite cheating on your fiancée?" I said sarcastically, laughing. "You're still cheating on your wife."
"She is not my wife." He snapped, shocking me. "We didn't marry."
"But you two..."
"All I was doing was fulfilling my father's promise. Although I've been trying to steer her in the right direction, she is ruining her own life."
"So why didn't you marry her?'
"Because I love you and will always love you," he said angrily and possessively. When I looked into his eyes for the first time, my heart skipped a beat.
