His hands pressed against the walls, preventing me from escaping. He looked down at me, something in his eyes. Was it lust? An urge? A need? Well, whatever it was I wasn't going to stay to find out.
"Excuse me but I have to go," I said lowering his gaze to his chest.
I heard a light chuckle as two fingers slipped underneath my chin, forcing my head up. I couldn't help the shiver running down my spine as he brushed his lips against my neck. He kissed the shell of my ear.
"Why do you keep fighting it? Just give in to the feeling."
"I...I don't know what you mean," I said, although the heat rising in my cheeks gave me away.
"I think you do. But you're in denial, which is understandable. Just know that you're mine and only mine."
He pushed away from me, stuffing his hands in his pocket, looking casual. "Let's head back inside."
I watched him turn on his heel, heading back to the door. I pressed a hand against my chest. Why was my heart beating so fast?
