Chap 9

"Fvck!" a profanity was released by Valjerome the moment I pushed him and gave him a hard slap.

I was about to leave his lap when he quickly grabbed me and restrained me in place.

"You will never get away from me," he said as his jaw tightened.

I laughed sarcastically and glared at him. "Fvck.You," the corners of my eyes began to tear up so I avoided his gaze.

"Should we try?" he said coldly.

I quickly turned my gaze back to him and looked to slap him again, but he immediately caught my hand in the air before it even landed on his cheek.

"I would not let you hurt me again, once is enough," he said emphatically.

When I laughed and bit my lower lip. "It is unfair, do you know that?" I said hoarsely as I stared at him. "Because I am letting you hurt me over and over again," I added as a lone tear fell on my cheek.

His eyes quickly softened. He gently lifted his hand to my cheek and wiped away my tears with his thumb.
