Liam closed the door behind and walked closer, step by step, striking fear in the girl. Nora backed away, her body hitting against the icy wall.
He stared at her, his deep and cello voice resounding in the room. "Nora Shahan, have you forgotten what I told you three years ago? Don't provoke me. But time and time again you kept testing my patience."
He picked up her jaw harshly and continued. "Tell me, how should I punish you?"
Nora met his eyes which was filled with a coldness making her hair stand on end.
This was the real Liam, cold and heartless.
She was foolish to think he had changed for better.
A pang of bitterness swelled in her heart and she closed her eyes, letting the memories from three years ago flood her mind.
-
Three years ago, Liam had warned her to never appear in front of him and Nora had been well behaved, staying as far as away from him. Whenever he'd go north, she'd go south. Even when they were in the same class, she'd stay at the opposite end. But fate played a cruel joke on her when she got locked down at his place.
He assumed it as one of her tricks to climb into his bed.
But she was certain she had fallen into an elaborate trap.
With his family using despicable means to destroy everyone around him, can Liam successfully get her out of that hell house?
How will Nora survive living under the same roof with the person who's been nothing but a nightmare all her life while learning his darkest secrets that would entangle them together and bring their entire world crashing down with it?

I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss.
