The Hottie Billionaires Series: Steal My Heart (Full English Edition)

Chapter 8

"You smell so nice, Maru," he whispered in a voice that was deep, like a growl of a wolf.

Chill ran down her spine. Goosebumps sprouted in her skin, making her feel edgy. She was anxious, alright, but not really out of fear. It was due to something else sexually related.

His eyes hovered around her figure predatorily, stopping at her chest. A smoke of passion covered his irises, and she suppressed a gasp when she dropped her gaze to where he was looking at. She was mortified to see her hard nipples straining beneath the thin and soft fabric of her pajama top.

Embarrassed, her cheeks burned. Goodness, why was her body feeling strange and tingly all over?

Benjamin was just looking at her, but she felt as if she was naked by the way he assessed her body with that mesmerizing interest in his slanted eyes. Her nipples hardened the instant his eyes gave them attention.

He wasn't holding her yet but her knees were already softening. She felt as if she would fall any moment on the bed behind her. Then he could fall on top of her, too, and...

Maru, get a grip on yourself! her wits snapped at her, waking her up from a momentary insanity. She was dismayed by her own thoughts.

Erase! Erase! she threw her unacceptable lousy thoughts away.

"Benjamin, don't-"

His strong and big hands snaked around her waist, shutting her up.

She gasped loudly. Her heart dribbled in her chest.

She planned to push him away, but he held her firmly and pulled her body crashing against his hardness. Her feet tiptoed as her crazy heartbeat intensified, almost choking her in intense pressure.

She tried to push him away, to escape being imprisoned in his arms, but her hands lost their strength when they touched his solid chest.

He was hot as if burning and the contact of their flesh turned her bones into a soft puddle of jelly.

Damn! What the hell was happening? Her body couldn't be acting this way.

She shut her eyes hard to collect her wits back. She took a deep breath, swallowing the tension that was making her feel weak and wanton.

"What the hell are you doing here, Benjamin?" she snapped at him, acting angry as she tried her best to resist his deadly charms.

He didn't answer. He only looked at her with hooded eyes. And as he held her gaze, the smoke of passion in his eyes flared even more, burning her flimsy resistance.

She swallowed hard. "Benjamin..." she squeaked in a broken voice. Panicking that she wasn't wearing a bra.

Silent, he only pulled her body closer to his.

Her breasts rubbed against the hardness of his chest. There was no more distance between their bodies, but the thin fabric of their clothings.

He groaned, feeling her body close to his. "Shit, your body is so soft, Maru," he whispered hoarsely. The tension in his voice was apparent. His grip around her waist tightened.

Warning rang at the back of her head, telling her to run away from Benjamin, or else she would be in deep trouble. He was very dangerous, and it surely wouldn't be a good thing to be close to him physically.

"Let me go, Benjamin..." she hissed at him, but her voice came out a soft whisper.

How she wanted to shout at him as loud as she could. How she wanted to push him away. But she felt weak and powerless against him.
