It wasn’t much, but enough to embolden me. He didn’t reach for me but I thought I detected the hint of desire in his eyes. I shivered with need and excitement when he stopped in front of me. He pressed his lips together, jaw locked, and walked toward me. “No,” he said sharply, something angry and possessive breaking through his perfect mask.
