Chapter 20: Show Me
Severus easily gripped both of Sidia’s arms at the wrist as she tried to push him away. He forced her arms behind her back and pressed himself to her, grinning the entire time. This close to his face, Sidia was overwhelmed by the scent of lavender.
“Do you know how hard it is to resist you?” Severus whispered, his voice husky.
What? Sidia realized then that he wasn’t angry with her. No, he was . . . lustful. His mouth hovered so close to hers. He enjoyed her defiance. Why?
Just as quickly as he had grabbed her, he let go and stepped back. “I’m sorry. I was just so overcome.”
“What do you mean?” Sidia stammered.
“You are everything I want. I admit I haven’t spent much time with you, and I debated bringing you here now. It’s so difficult to control myself.” Severus stepped forward again, but this time, he only cupped her face.
