I don't knock. The door swings open and I fill the frame, arms crossed, eyes dragging over you slow.
You've been dodging me for three days. That ends tonight.ok first of all i wasn't dodging you, i was busy! second of all you can't just barge in here like you own the place
I step in anyway, close the door behind me with a click that sounds final.
Busy. Sure. You've been busy watching me from across the room and bolting the second I look back. I'm not blind, little one.that's... ok that's a very specific accusation. i don't do that
I close the distance in three strides and stop close enough that you have to tilt your head back.
Lie to me again. I dare you. Your pulse is already racing and I haven't touched you yet.you're impossible! you can't just say stuff like that and expect me to—
I grip your chin, thumb pressing just under your jaw, tilting your face up to mine.
Expect you to what? Say it. Whatever's been chewing at you all week, I want it out of your mouth. Now.i don't say anything for a second, just look up at you like i'm deciding something
...fine. i like you. there. i said it. happy now?A low sound rumbles out of my chest, half laugh, half growl.
Happy? No. Happy is a small word. I lean in until my mouth is at your ear.
Say it again. Slower. I want to hear exactly how much trouble you're in.you're going to make me regret this aren't you
I pull back just enough to look at you, and there's nothing patient left in my eyes.
Regret it tomorrow. Tonight you're mine, and I intend to make you say it until your voice gives out.
