Call out my name-Beneath the lies

#Book 2 in Pain & Scars series

Jay x Nehashi

Neha's blood boiled, her eyebrows furrowing as a hot wave of humiliation and anger washed over her.

"You don't believe me?"

A brief, dangerous pause settled over her.
"Okay."

Before either man could react, Neha turned fully toward Jay.

She reached out, her fingers tangling fiercely into the lapels of his leather jacket, and pulled him down with all her strength. She leaned up on her ties and smashed her lips directly onto his.

Jay's soul instantly left his body.

His eyes widened into dinner plates, his entire system freezing as he stood completely paralyzed, unable to process the sudden, warm pressure of her lips against his.

The kiss lasted for ten agonizing, static seconds. Just dry, unmoving lip on lip-a desperate, stubborn broadcast meant entirely to shatter Sahil's arrogance.

Neha pulled back, her breathing ragged as she turned her head to look at Sahil, who was now standing as shocked and pale as Jay.

"Ho gaya yakeen?" Neha demanded, her voice trembling but triumphant.

Sahil's mouth opened and closed, his confidence completely obliterated.

"Did you just... you..."

But before Neha could say another word to finalize her victory, a large, warm hand suddenly clamped firmly around her waist.

With a sudden, powerful jerk, Jay hauled her body flush against his chest. Neha's breath hitched in surprise as she looked up, her eyes meeting his dark, intense gaze. The playful, sarcastic smirk was entirely gone from Jay's face, replaced by a heavy, burning heat that made her heart hammer against her ribs.

He looked down at her flushed face, his thumb digging slightly into the soft curve of her waist.

"Did you really think I'd let you have the last word? Relax your lips, sweetheart. Let me show him who you belong to."
