Chapter 75 - "We're Making Progress."

Suddenly, she stops laughing, her lips still stretched wide with a shadow of the laugh still remaining in them, as she looks at me intensely. I slowly fall silent as well, feeling awkward when I realize she's giving me that look.

The look that says that she can have me for breakfast.

Her eyes darken a shade of gray as she lets the pillow slip from her fingers. She gazes down at my lips as she leans forward, placing both of her hands on my wrists, locking them down to the bed, as she straddles me.

I gulp.

"Now, who's in control?" She smirks against my lips, the victorious edge to her tone obvious.

I'm too nervous to speak.

When I don't say anything in answer, she shakes her head, her lips brushing against mine, and then pulls back an inch, staring into my eyes.
