Fire And Ice (Lost&Found Series)✔
53 Chapters. (Completed) I pushed her back and she landed on the bed with a slight bounce. She swallowed hard and her right hand shot up to her stomach. My eyes watched her every movement as if she was my prey. I knew for a fact that she was now equally scared and nervous. I slowly made my way towards the bed and parted her legs with my knee, hovering above her. "I suggest you watch that mouth around me." I spat. Her breath hitched as our faces were now only a centimeter apart. Without giving it much thought, I leaned in and captured her lips in a bruising kiss.
