Semua Bab Sweet forbidden love: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Good lord. Could this man be any more overbearing? My face turned as red as a tomato, and I quickly looked away, finishing my bowl of rice as fast as possible.Somehow, those dark thoughts kept clinging to me. No, it was impossible. This was an office. There was no way he would pin me down and consume me right here.Seeing my reaction, he simply curled his lips into a smirk and continued eating.Once the meal was over, he helped me clear the dishes and pack them back into the bag. While I was still nervously trying to invent an excuse to get out of there, he stood up and walked back toward his desk.Phew.He must have a lot of work today. I let out a soft sigh of relief. I knew it; even if my man lacked a shame receptor, he still knew that the workplace was not the environment for that sort of thing.He sat down in his swivel chair, leaning his body back and stretching his arms. Assuming he was about to get back to work, I picked up the bag

"Tonight, you’re definitely not leaving this bed."His voice was steady, neither fast nor slow, yet I could feel the biting chill in his tone. It meant he was still halfway to being furious with me.I already knew I was going to be devoured by him tonight anyway. If I let him stay angry, I couldn’t imagine how dire the consequences would be. My body wouldn't be able to take it. I had never once been able to keep up with his superhuman stamina.I couldn't let this continue. Before we reached his house, I had to extinguish the fire raging inside him.I wrapped one arm around his neck while the other drifted down, tracing the broad expanse of his chest. Beneath that white dress shirt lay a set of firm, intoxicating muscles.I pressed a soft kiss to his neck. I had missed him so much. He hadn't replied to my texts all day, and when I ran into that creep, I couldn't even get through to him. I felt a small pang of self-pity."I missed

It was ten o'clock at night. He had helped me back into my clothes, and my entire body felt limp and exhausted as I slumped in the backseat while he drove me home. Through the rearview mirror, I could see his expression. He looked deeply satisfied, a stark contrast to the dark, brooding face he had worn earlier.Are all men like this? When they are angry, do they always let it go as long as you please them this way?But the price I had to pay today was perhaps too high.Thinking of the lingering soreness in my private intimacy, I realized just how terrifying he could truly be. I promised myself I would never let him see me with another man again. Never.His voice suddenly broke through the dark thoughts in my head."I put the food I bought in the bag. You can take it out and eat whenever you’re hungry.""Okay."Ring. Ring.The sudden blare of my ringtone shattered the silence.I jolted upright, hurrying to sit up d

I was overjoyed. I practically flew to his side, throwing my arms around his neck and pulling him into a tight embrace."Did you come to pick me up? Aren't you too busy with work to be here?""Not too busy for this. Whenever I have a free moment, I’ll come for you."He smiled, burying his face in the crook of my neck before wrapping his arms around me. His embrace felt so comfortable that all my stress and anxiety instantly evaporated.I wanted to hold him like this every day. I could probably stay in his arms for the rest of my life. He was my big teddy bear.Suddenly.Roar. Roar.The roar of a familiar engine rang out, nearly piercing my eardrums. I looked up to see Benjamin's car streak past us.It seemed he was driving even faster than the time I had ridden with him.I thought to myself that he must have tried to drive slowly for my sake that day. Or perhaps, since Benjamin said he was busy earlier, he had some

Lily’s words didn't bother me at all. She and I had nothing to do with each other, and I hadn't even wanted to enter this competition in the first place.With that thought, I quickly brushed the encounter with Lily from my mind.That afternoon, as usual, Benjamin and I went to House A to practice our routine. Nothing had changed much. I had grown accustomed to the physical contact and told myself it was simply for the sake of the competition.Benjamin didn't show much emotion either. He had remained as cold as ever since that day. However, every time our bodies pressed close during the dance, I felt a lingering, ambiguous gaze from him.I ignored it. Since that incident, Benjamin and I hadn't spoken much. Occasionally, he would buy me milk when I looked tired or ask a few brief questions, but it never went beyond being acquaintances.Every day, his driver still took me to school in the familiar Rolls-Royce, though sometimes he would come to p
