"Do you know why they always tried to make the villains ugly in books and movies?" his breath fanned over my already goose bump covered, bare skin. I gulped nervous, feeling uncomfortable with how close he was.
"Well princess" he whispered in a deep, voice, slowly placing his lips on my neck.
I pressed my lips together, trying to hold back a moan, that was threatening to leave my lips, I tried pushing him away from me but I seemed to have no longer control over my own body.
Why did he have such an effect on me, why does he make my heart skip a beat when he's this near to me?
Once I had my little bit of control back over my own thoughts I finally realized I still had to answer him, but I wasn't in a state where I was able to do that so I just shook my head a little from side to side.
"Necessarily so, it seemed. Because if they were attractive-" he paused for a moment, placing another kiss on my jaw. I squeezed my eyes shut and gulped nervous.
"-if their looks matched their charm and their cunning-" he stopped again, this time pulling away a little and tightening the grip he had on my wrists which were pressed up against the wall above my head.
"-they wouldn't only be dangerous..." he paused again, this time looking straight into my eyes.
"..they would be irresistible."
