บททั้งหมดของ Tempted By The Enemy (Temptation Series Book 3): บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

Alyssa rolled her eyes at the absurdity of his proposal. Was it seriously a marriage proposal? “No, thanks. I’ll take back my concern.” Nicholas laughed but although he didn’t admit it to her, he actually liked the idea. Marrying her would more or less solve his own problem. He would be entitled to unlimited se*, his mom and granny would be happy too and so would Alyssa since she would be free of her step-dad and brother’s interference in her life. “Why not? It’s the best solution for you, me, and my family. I’ll get what I want from you. You’ll be free from your stepdad and brother while mom and granny will be happy to have you in our family.” Alyssa gaped at him, baffled by his suggestion. Was he really pursuing the matter? She had thought he was joking! “Seriously? This is the weirdest marriage proposal I’ve ever seen,” she scoffed and Nicholas shrugged. “If it solves our issues, why not? So will you marry me, Alyssa?” he asked giving her a brief glance and driving on. “No, Nic

“You won’t have any problems with me after you get to know me. That’s what this trip is all about, isn’t it? I told you I won’t play fair,” he shrugged, sitting on the chair and making himself comfortable. Alyssa was stunned by his admission. So he had indeed taken her challenge seriously and started working on it as well. “I thought this was a business trip,” she said, dazed and confused. What would she do now? What exactly had Nicholas planned for her? Would she have to share a room all throughout the trip? “Stop fretting so much. Let’s relax and enjoy a movie. So which is your favorite?” he asked her to lighten the atmosphere in the room. Alyssa studied him for a second and noted that he was indeed interested in a movie. Sitting on the chair beside him, she browsed through the options available. “Select it but we’ll watch after take-off,” said Nicholas sensing the way she was all worked up around him. He wanted to make her comfortable around him first or it would be difficult to

Alyssa looked around the room, appreciating the contemporary-style dark wood decor and carpeted floors. She noticed that the double bed was larger than that on the aircraft so she could easily put up a barricade here. Her eyes fell upon the electric kettle with complimentary jasmine tea products and she couldn’t stop herself from brewing herself some. Picking up her cup, she opened the door that led to a small balcony with panoramic views of the bay and the Singapore skyline. This was the first time she had traveled to the far east and she already started loving the feel of the place. There was a mysterious thrill in the air as if she was waiting for something to happen, although she had no idea what. She sipped the tea and closed her eyes to savor its refreshing taste. On the spur of the moment, she had invited herself into his bedroom but now on second thoughts she wondered if it was a good idea. Would he keep his word as he did on the aircraft? What if he didn’t? Would he force hi

Alyssa opened her eyes feeling Nicholas’s warm mouth on hers. Was she dreaming or was it Nicholas really kissing her? Unconsciously, her arms went round his neck and she pulled him closer, opening her mouth to him, to take as much as she could. After dreaming of him the whole night, it was only normal that she needed this to keep thoughts of him out of her head throughout the day. His lips were on fire as he plunged his warm tongue into her mouth, tasting her, devouring her, branding her with his touch. Despite being intensely passionate, there was a sensual quality as if he too had been longing to kiss her for a long time. Their mouths battled with each other for dominance, not getting enough of one another. After weeks of lusting after her, Nicholas didn’t want the kiss to end. Her soft moans and the way her fingers played with his hair, were enough to drive him crazy. The kiss wasn’t enough, he needed more. His hands wandered to her stomach, touching the smooth skin under her top

Alyssa gasped at his candid declaration. How did her words always backfire? She hadn’t foreseen this turn of events at all. Her breath hitched when his hands bunched at her hips and pulled her body flush against his. “Nicholas..” she started but he placed a finger to her lips to quieten her, his face dipping dangerously close “Shh! You can’t stop me from enjoying my candy now,” he said in a hoarse whisper. Alyssa could feel the spark between them, ready to burn them both. It was too intense to be ignored and before she could say another word, his thumb parted her lips expertly and he crashed his lips to hers. This time there wasn’t any tenderness in the kiss. It was a brutal and punishing one intended to do what he just admitted. Enjoy his candy which was her mouth! He ravished her, devoured her, his tongue tasting every recess hungrily yet it wasn’t enough. He needed more. Grinding his hard arousal into her, he tangled his fingers into her hair to dominate the kiss further. His int
