"As for you," he stared while walking towards me. His stormy eyes made me feel a certain way. He looks at me as if he is a predator and me his prey. I quickly snap out of my haze and utter "I'm going to go now" very awkwardly. I turn on my heels but before I can go any further, he grabs my wrists and pulls me towards him. His face was inching towards me as his body was closing all gaps between us. His hand creeps up my face to move a strand of my hair and tuck it behind my ear. "Don't ever walk away from me," he growls close to my right ear that I can feel his lips brush up against it. His smell was intoxicating, taking me out of this world. I subside my thoughts as I push him away. "I have to go," I whisper, not able to look him in those lukewarm eyes of his...
