Vivian Yates deliberately rubbed her body against his, her lips brushing against his firm chest and his sexy Adam's apple.
Taking in her faint, fresh scent and fiery touch, Xylas Shepherd instantly felt a tightening in his groin, a surge of raw desire flaring up within him.
He instinctively tightened his arm around her waist.
Vivian Yates sensed his reaction, and a flash of secret glee lit up her eyes.
Then, she immediately pushed him away, her face flushing bright red.
The warmth and fragrance in his arms vanished in an instant. Xylas felt a pang of longing as he looked up at her. Her face was flushed as red as an apple—an utterly adorable sight.
Truth be told, men love to see a girl blush—especially one they're attracted to.
And right now, Xylas found her utterly adorable.
A smirk played on his lips as he said disdainfully, "You're still the same as ever. Timid and useless."
