Chapter: 479
Then, with a smile, she replied, "You're thinking too much. I didn't spend money tonight to blow off steam, but because I'm tired of the same old routine and crave something different."
Caden's eyes remained fixed on her.
The dim glow from his cigarette cast a sinister light in his dark eyes, enhancing their menacing look.
Was she tired of him?
He scoffed, “Fine. I hope your night is memorable.”
Alicia answered with composure, "You too."
Just as she turned to walk away, he caught her wrist.
Confused, she turned to face him, but he drew her close and pressed his lips to hers abruptly.
It was hardly a kiss.
More like a bite.
Each pull and grind was loaded with such fierce aggression as if he intended to tear her tongue out.
Alicia's eyes shot open.
As usual, resistance was pointless; he held her firmly, his exploration of her mouth relentless.
The subtle taste of tobacco acted like an anesthetic, dulling her senses.
Her mind blanked instantly.
Then, a sharp pain shot through her lips.
Caden relaxed his hold slightly, and they separated a bit, their breaths mingling more heatedly.
The pain on her lips persisted, and she tasted a hint of blood.
She glared at him, her anger visible.
Caden, eyeing her enticingly rosy lips, swiftly licked away the blood.
Alicia found his behavior unbearable.
Pain reddened her eyes. "Caden, what on earth do you want?"
Caden relaxed his hold.
"Just a kiss. What's the big deal?" His eyes burned with intense desire, but his voice was casual. "Go ahead. Your escort shouldn't have to wait."
A surge of anger washed over Alicia, tempting her to unleash a torrent of curses.
She restrained herself from cursing and instead delivered a forceful slap across Caden's face.
Immediately, Caden's features darkened into a stormy expression.
Her breathing was heavy. “Is this an effective way to let off steam? It actually feels quite Liberating!"
Caden raised his head, meeting her eyes with an icy stare.
Blood tinged his thin Lips, giving him a vampire-like appearance.
