Heart of Darkness

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.” **************** A woman alone in a man’s world.

Chapter 90 part 2

Angelica lost herself in the heat of his wet lips. His mouth danced lazily over hers and she resisted the urge to grab him by the hair and kiss him deeper. That would lead him on which wasn't what she wanted. 

Or what did she actually want? She certainly didn't want him to stop kissing her. If she was sure that he would only kiss her then she wouldn't worry. 

Rayven pulled his lips away from hers and she almost groaned in frustration. He took a moment to study her face with that hot gaze that made her melt and blush before kissing her again. This time harder and hungrier than before. Angelica couldn't keep her hands to herself anymore. She had avoided touching his bare body but now her hands went to his shoulders. 

Oh, God. She was playing with fire and should stop before it was too late. She pushed him away ever so gently just to let him know and he pulled his lips away from her immediately.
