Encore of the Avenging Muse (Sylvia and Rupert)

Chapter 323

As soon as the words left his mouth, the man grabbed the back of her head and

crushed his mouth to hers in a rough, almost desperate kiss.

"Ow-hey!" Sylvia gasped, pain shooting through her lips.

ear.

Sylvia's heart jumped. She couldn't tell if this was a warning or just concern, but she nodded.
