"Sergey…I can't." she said as she backed away from him, but he moved forward. "We can't. I'm still angry with you. I still hate you for what we did. I hate you for making me feel like a whore and putting all these thoughts I never had before in my head."

"You mean the sexual fantasies? It's only natural for you to want to feel that pleasure again." he said as he backed her up against the wall and she wondered where was Nick. She and Sergey weren't hidden from the large double doors that lead to the gardens so he should be able to see them. Maybe he was watching this and Tom, Kevin, Joe, and Stella were trying hard to stop him from coming in and killing Sergey. Maybe he didn't care because she had sort of defended Sergey after Nick punched him. Perhaps he was distracted with Nadia again. Just then, she noticed that Vladimir had finished his phone conversation and wasn't even in his office.

"Macy…" Sergey said as he pressed his body against hers and she panicked. Surly, someone had to see what was going on. "I want to give you that pleasure you crave…" he said as he moved a hand up her thigh as he kissed her neck. Giving up, she surrendered herself to him. She let out a soft moan as she felt his fingers brush over the cotton material of her panties.

"Sergey…" she moaned out as he slipped his fingers past the band of her panties and she arched into him feeling his fingers moving up and down on her clit.

"Do you hate me, still?" he asked as he stared into her eyes with a daring flicker in his eyes.

"Yes…" she said as she glared at him. "I still hate you…" she said as she tried to stop her body from shuddering as he pressed a little harder down onto her clit.

"How about now?" he asked with a smirk she wanted to slap off his face as he moved his hand in a slow circle against her clit.

"Stop doing this…" she said as she looked up but didn't stop him. She wanted to push him off of her. She hated that she loved his was pressed close to hers. So close she could feel her heart thumping against his chest.

"Stop me…" he dared and she looked into his eyes and saw the pure lust within them. "You only have to push me away or say no and I will stop. Stop me." he said.

As if some lusty beast had been unleashed in her, she gripped the back of his neck and pulled him down into a heated kissed. Breaking the kiss, she craned her neck to the right and allowed him to kiss her neck. She felt his tongue lick a slow trail up the side of her neck.

"I hate you…" she said as he chuckled. "I hate you…" she said as he applied more pressure to her clit and moved his hand faster as if he could tell she was going to have an orgasm. "You should be Nick. You should be Nick…" she said as she closed her eyes and pictured Nick.

"I know…" Sergey said as he gripped her back with his free arm and held her. Suddenly, she let out a moan and arched her back. "There you have it, Nick." Sergey said and Macy opened her eyes and looked around to see Nick standing there. She wanted to push Sergey away from her, but she was frozen. She couldn't move as she saw an unreadable expression on Nick's face. "She wants you." he said to Nick as he slipped away from Macy.

"Macy…" Nick said as he went up to her and tried to get her to look at him. She couldn't do it. She couldn't look in his face and see that look in his eyes. She knew he was staring at her like she was a wild animal with rabies. "Look at me…"

"No…I don't want to see you look at me like that."

"Like what, Macy." he said in a calm voice, but she knew he was straining to stay calm.

"You're looking at me like you don't even know me…"

"I'm not." he said as he gripped her face and turned it towards him. "I know you. You're just lost somewhere in there. Because of him." he said pointing to Sergey and she turned her head to see Sergey still standing there with an amused smirk on his face.

"Don't blame him…" she said and Nick looked at her in confusion. "True. He took my virginity, but I've been feeling these things for a while. I just didn't realize or acknowledge it because I felt it was wrong. I wanted to lose my virginity, but I wanted it to be with you. Not him. When I first saw him, somehow, I knew that he wanted that. I knew."

"So, you willingly gave up your virginity because you thought I would like you more?"

"Yes, and I didn't want to admit that myself. It's an embarrassing thought…if he hadn't did what he did, I wouldn't be able to tell you this. I wouldn't be able to tell you I love you more than a friend and beyond that fact that you're in JONAS. I just know you don't feel the same way."

"He loves you, Macy. He is just too stupid to realize it." Sergey said.

"Hey, who asked you? You know what…this is all your fault!" he said before turning to Macy. "He used you, Macy. How could you be attracted to him? How could you let him kiss you and touch you?" Nick asked as if it pained him to say those words.

"I don't know. I can't explain it. I hate him so much, yet…" she said as she stared at Sergey. "I can't pull myself away. It's like a…grown up version of the push/pull, cat-and-mouse game you and I play, Nick. Only…there's no friendship between Sergey and I as it is with you."

"Macy, you're not making sense. What do you want? To be his plaything? Because that's all you'll ever be to him." Nick said as he turned to Sergey.

"You do not know me at all, Nick. I care about Macy a lot. It may not be on the same scale as you care for her, but I do care about her. Macy, my Macy." he said as he walked over to her and caressed her face before Nick was able to smack his hand away.

"Don't touch her! You don't love her!" Nick yelled as he tried to hit Sergey again, but he was suddenly stopped by Kevin. Macy looked around to see everyone standing there and she wondered if they had seen the same "show" of her and Sergey against the wall as Nick saw. She almost shank with embarrassment and guilt. Stella was by her side trying to comfort her, but Macy knew she was far from comfort.

"Oh, but do you love her, Nick?" Sergey said and Macy watched Nick's face change into that unreadable expression he wore earlier. "You are blind to the most amazing woman before you. She gave up something sacred to her to save you. She supports your music career. She is your friend. But, do you love her the way a lover should? If you were not ready to satisfy her, would you have told her to wait with the intention that you would sleep together? No."

"Sergey!" Vladimir yelled out before yelling in Russian. He turned to look at Tom. "My brother is a spoiled brat and he is angry and jealous of me. I am sorry for the damage he has caused." Vladimir said and Sergey just let out a humorless chuckle.

"Vladimir, I respect you for apologizing, but your brother did an unforgivable thing. He used power and influence and threats to persuade Macy to…Well, I won't repeat what she had to do, but I'm not comfortable with just an apology." he said and Macy had to stop him.

"Mr. Lucas, it t wasn't Vladimir's fault. It wasn't Sergey's fault. Just mine…" she said as she started to cry and Stella pulled her into a hug. Just then, Vera stepped forward to speak.

"I think is it best if she had some time alone to think. Come with me, Macy." she said as she led her upstairs and led her into a large bedroom. Macy looked at her with confusion. "I know what it feels like to be torn between men. I had to choose between a mere farmer or Vladimir. Don't tell my husband, but I wish I had chosen the farmer. I loved him more. So, think and choose wisely."
