'Hey', I didn't need to turn to know who is it, the sensuous and velvety voice said it all. He started walking towards me till I felt his body heat behind my back. 'Look, I wanted to apolo-' he started saying, but I cut him off by turning towards him abruptly. Bad move. He was staring at me with those dark and hypnotizing eyes. How the hell am I supposed to be angry at him when he's looking at me in such a way. Damn it! No, I should not be distracted. I took a deep breath and said: 'There's no need to apologize Mr Generes.' I tried to make my tone irritating for him to know that I was definitely mad.

During our first encounter when we first touched I felt some sparks but right now a thousand fireworks were coursing through my veins.

He settled me down on the island with my legs still wrapped around him and continued his sensuous assault. He started nibbling my collar bone. I moaned at the sweet torture he was giving me and gripped his wet hair harder. Once he was done with my neck and collar bone he stared at me lustfully and huskily said 'You're not just a maid to me Désirée

He cornered me against the wall with both of his hands on either side of my head. I could smell his mint breath against my lips. we were so close to each other that a single move from me would result in our lips smashing against each other. "The next time I see you getting cozy with another guy, I'll kill that guy and make your life a living hell, AvaGrace," Sebatian whispered dangerously low in my ear making me quiver with fear. "DO.I.MAKE.MYSELF.CLEAR?" He said, gritting his teeth together. I didn't want to nod, but I nodded. I didn't want to fear him, but I feared him. I didn't want to succumb but I succumbed. * Sebastian Salvestro is an Italian billionaire.
