Chapter 120: Beast, Not Men

"Are you sure you don’t want me to escort you to Richmond’s office?" Alaric asked, stealing another kiss from Violet’s lips.

Violet returned the kiss briefly and replied, "Sorry, but I can go on my own."

Besides, she was certain the news of her and Alaric was already spreading like wildfire. She didn’t want to draw even more attention to herself.

"Fine," Alaric groaned, but not before seeking her lips once more. Her lips tasted like honey and he was addicted to it. And this time, the kiss was deeper, more intense, leaving her breathless when he pulled away. "I miss you."

Violet blinked in surprise. "But I’m still here."

"That’s the point," Alaric said, wrapping his arms around her possessively, pulling her close as if she were his personal doll. "I’m already missing you. I wish we could stay like this all day." His grin turned mischievous. "And maybe do something naughty."

Violet couldn’t help but burst into laughter, lightly smacking his arm. "You’re acting like a baby."

"Only when I’m with you," he admitted shamelessly, his grin growing wider.

Violet scoffed, shaking her head in disbelief. Who would’ve thought the cold, aloof Alaric Storm could be this childish? But before she could say more, Alaric suddenly sat up, his expression changing.

"No, this won’t do," he declared.

"What won’t do?" Violet asked, sitting up as well, but Alaric gently pushed her back down onto the bed.

"I need a souvenir," he said, his tone leaving no room for debate.

Before Violet could process what he meant by that, Alaric’s hands had already slipped under her skirt, firmly gripping her hips.

"No, Alaric, there’s no time!" she protested with a mix of panic and disbelief. "I’m running—"
