A scoff escaped her lips as her mind drew up a mental list of why having sex with Flavio Del Grassi was the worst idea ever.

A look of guilt flashed in his honey coloured eyes and she expected him to defend himself or at least say something but he didn't. He wanted her to finish the list so she continued. "You've disrespected me on so many occasions, you act like a brute, you don't know when to stop and apologize-" "Okay that's enough-" He interrupted only to get interrupted too. "And I'm scared."
