Y llámame loca, pero en ese momento, se veía malditamente sexy. —No se lo diré a los demás. —Solté las palabras esperando que le diera la seguridad que necesitaba para que me dejara ir porque aunque se veía muy sexy, también se veía peligroso. Tratando de no temblar, me mordí los labios. Sus ojos captaron el movimiento y se inclinó hacia adelante, llenó mis fosas nasales con el olor a la droga que fumó momentos atrás.
