Bab 49: Familiar with Sharks

- VANESSA -

"Just relax, sweet Kisa," Ivan whispers in my ear. "Imagine I'm someone else, someone whose hands you want touching you, and relax. Okay?" 

It's a matter of convincing everyone in Club Redwood of this Kisa and Ivan made a baby story, so I do what would be unthinkable in any other moment but this one: I listen to Ivan. I imagine that he's someone else. 

It only takes small shifts in the actual physical appearance of the man holding me, but I transform the entire interior of Ivan into his cousin. Dominik is the one whose hands are running over me. Dominik is the one whispering in my ear.
