"Don't worry, we'll get to the point where you do as I say just because I said it. That's submission, and you're more than capable of it." "I know what submission is, and you are not going to get mine" I shot back, enraged. We stared at each other with hostility for a few seconds. Then he nodded, as if he knew something I didn't, and shifted in his seat. "You'll get a taste of who's in charge, and then we'll see what you have to say for yourself." He patted his lap.

My fingers instinctively grip his suit jacket, my body burning at the sensation of his lips moving against mine and at the way his hands hold me. I can feel his breath hitch when I hesitantly kiss him back with more confidence, my lips parting slightly. He lets out a soft groan, tilting his head to deepen the kiss even further. My stomach flips, warmth spreading through my chest as I melt against him, completely lost in the way he tastes and the way he feels. When he finally pulls back, I barely have time to catch my breath before he kisses me again. Soft pecks this time. One on my cheek. Another on the tip of my nose. And then, finally, a lingering kiss on my forehead that makes my eyes flutter shut. My heart is betraying me with its rapid beats, and I'm pretty sure I've forgotten how to breathe properly.

He carefully cleaned my hand and wiped any blood before bandaging it. He finished and looked up to me. I looked back into his eyes, wanting to look away, yet not being able to. "Th..thanks." Our hands were still holding one another's. He inched closer. "Don't hurt yourself again amour. Are you always this dumb?" He said with a smirk. My breath hitches at our closeness. Neither of us moved, but if we did, our lips would've been touching. Fuck. "Let me ask you something. It's 1:46 am, and you're still up? Why?" Magnus looked into my eyes deeply.
