Synopsis

He put one hand on the door beside her head before leaning forward. What was he doing? Trying to intimidate her again?

“Truth is…” He began to speak in a low voice and she strained her ears but all she could hear was her heartbeat. “I hate when you touch me because I like it so much.”

Her eyes widened in surprise and he leaned even closer before continuing to speak.

“I also hate the way you smell…” she could hear him inhale her scent “You smell delicious. And I hate your hair because it’s tempting. I want to run my fingers through it, pull it gently while I taste your lips and bite your neck.”

Angelica suddenly felt like there was no air left in the room.

“Your touch makes me unable to resist doing those things and all the other things I want to do to you.”

“Oth...other things.” She breathed not realizing she was thinking loudly.

One side of his lips curved into a smile.

“Imagine all the things a man would want to do to you. I want to do those things and much more.” He leaned closer bringing his lips next to her ear. “Because I am no man. I am a beast. A hungry one. So unless you want me to bite you, refrain from touching me.”

****************
