➤ I let out a sharp gasp at Kai's rough grip on my arm. "You're bleeding."
Blood dripped from the knife wound onto my palm, the cut stinging. "It's fine."
Despite my second attempt to pull away from him, his grip only tightened in response, jaw lightly twitching.
"Let me help you, Annika." The siphoner pulled me closer, our chests lightly grazing one another. I could feel my breathing slightly slow, the feel of his grip, and the light tracing his fingers did to bring my own hand closer to him.
"Now you want to be a gentleman?" I faintly asked. "I'm always a gentleman." His response was low, and rough.
Liar, though the word got caught on my tongue as I watched his own lightly trace the blood from my palm. His gaze never leaving mine - his eyes could be described as one thing.
Pure hunger.
