"You're defying me now?"
"Just kill me instead of tormenting me slowly." Her voice was low, steady.
"You want it now?"
She nodded—but her body tensed in hesitation.
"So you want me to have you right here until you pass out, perhaps…" he trailed, his hand reaching toward her chest.
"You're a shameless pervert!" she spat, throwing her arms over her chest.
Her thighs clenched tightly, as if to seal herself off from letting his perverted hands penetrate.
She couldn't believe he was even thinking of doing that right here—until she passed out?
Unbelievable.
A soft snort escaped his nostrils at her feisty defiance. He crouched to her level beside her head as she was still lying down with their eyes locked.
"I won't let you die so easily while I'm still breathing," Zane whispered, his tone filled with a dark vow. "Even if you want to… that day will only come when I'm gone and you do accompany me across to the afterlife."
