The door of his car was harshly jerked settling her in the passenger seat as his angry eyes looked down at her. His brows deepened and narrowed eyes looked like one of a snake's–sharp and venomous. Amara swallowed hard.
The chilled fall breeze whisked past her shoulders sending several goosebumps in their wake. The parking lot was empty, but she could feel the loud deafening silence, the atmosphere filled with thick tension. Martha sprinted behind before the guards quickly held her down.
"Take her back to the mansion." Kaelith ordered without taking his eyes off of Amara.
"Mr. Luca! It's not her fault-" Martha struggled but the guard just tightened his hold. Anxiousness flooded her veins as she looked at Mara with guilt as her eyes met Amara’s. Suddenly she regretted bringing her out.
"I said," Kaelith paused, his dark orbs glaring at Amara’s shivering frame. "Fucking take her back!” "What about her?!” Martha panicked as the guard dragged her to the opposite car. Martha screamed and thrushes to no avail.
"She needs to learn some rules..." Amara’s heart beat raced. Amara watched with trepidation as the guard carelessly threw panicked Martha into the car and drove away.
"R-Kaelith." She stuttered the instant he backed leaned down trapped her between his burly arms and the seat. The proximity enticed the new panic, something that made every cell inside her body shiver with fright. She gulped and tried to make herself as small as could slowly pulling her knees up to her chest avoiding his steely gaze but he only invaded her space as his angry orbs penetrated through her whole being.
The weight of his body and the gaze forced her to let out startled short breath.
"Listen to me, please..." she mumbled, trying–yet failing to make him listen. The man just glared at her.
"Kaelith..." she tried once again avoiding his gaze.
"Please-" a startled gasp left her mouth as Kaelith slammed his fist beside her head, the metal of thecardenting.Herwidenedeyeslookedshockinglyathimasheclosedhiseyesandtookdeep breaths. She could tell he was losing control and that scared her even more. She never saw him like this. She couldn’t even tell why he was so angry.
After few breaths, Kaelith finally opened his eyes.
"I'm trying, Amara. I'm trying so fucking hard." He said in his deep, gravelly voice. "But you always make it unbearable." The bulk of his frame intimidated her. He reminded her of a big bad wolf trapping his prey between his claws. And the way his gaze penetrated through her, it reeked dominance.
"You make me do things, Amara. You make me care. Fuck!" He slammed another fist against the car and she yelped.
"I'm sorry..." she didn’t even know what she was apologizing for. But she needed him to calm down. "K-Kaelith..."
"Don't say my name." He narrowed his eyes so fractionally she almost could see the irritation in those orbs. Her breath hitched at his next words. "It makes me... feel things." She looked unfounded at him. What did he just say? What did that mean? Kaelith clenched his jaw andleaned.
"I don't know what you did to me. But it's so hard to control, sweetheart. I tried not to care, for years, but I am at my limit now.”
"..." her heart beat was accelerating with speed of thousand miles per second.
"One moment I want to push you away, distance myself from your intoxicating presence, to never look in your eyes," he lightly shifted his fist to gently caress her hairs as she flinched at his touch. "But right now, I want to punish you so fucking bad."
"I-"
"You bring the devil in me, Amara. You make me a dangerous man.”
“"You're angry."
"If I say I want to kiss you right now, will you still say I'm angry?" He brushed his thumb over her cold, numb lips. Amidst the conversation, you hadn't noticed how his gaze had turned from raged to something sensual and hooded. His face gave nothing away of his emotions but his eyes seemed like an open book.
She gulped trying to calm her heart.
“You don't mean it."
Kaelith leaned further, his thumb moving from her lips to the curve of her jaw as he traced her flesh there sending several tingles down their wake.
"Howdoyouknow?"Hewhispered,hisvoicemixofsensualdesireandunspokenwords.Her breaths quickened as she tried to comprehend his words.
Kaelith leaned in, his gaze unwavering and intense. "Why don't we find out?" His words were a seductive invitation, laden with a magnetic pull that tugged at her senses. He held her gaze, a mixture of longing and longing simmering in his eyes. "Would you like it?" His voice was a velvet whisper, igniting a thousand thoughts and sensations within her.
Amara's entire body shook under the weight his heavy gaze. Her arms were pinned above her head, and her legs were trapped between his strong, manly thighs. As the realization settled in that there was no easy escape from this, her heart raced, and her mind spun with a whirlwind of emotions.
Her jaw clenched tightly.
