Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 811

Back in the day, Yvonne never hesitated to shove people away. If she was in a bad mood, she made it obvious—didn't want anyone near her? She'd push you off without a second thought.

But now, the way she was squirming in Xander's arms? It was so half-hearted that, to someone like Xander-who'd seen her throw punches over less-it really just felt like she was snuggling up to him.

Seriously, if you hadn't met the old Yvonne, you'd think she was as docile as a kitten right now.

Especially with the way she tried to insult him, all puffed up but with zero bite-like an angry little tabby that's lost its claws.

Truth be told, Yvonne had already blown up when she heard Xander say she was "playing hard to get." Now, with him teasing her about "cuddling," she was fuming.

"Who's cuddling with you? You smell like a gym bag-there's nothing to cuddle here!"

Her bristling, kitten-like outrage was actually pretty adorable.

Xander just chuckled. "See? Still denying it. You're totally cuddling."

He had her wrist in his hand, holding her effortlessly. That would never have happened with the Yvonne of old.

Yvonne tried to yank her arm back, but she was too weak. Just like Xander said, she looked fragile more like she wanted to say "no" but didn't really mean it.
