Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 48 Ignorant

“Punishment? What punishment?” In fact, Erin wanted to ask why she was being punished.

Chandler looked at her and said rather suggestively, “Oh, you’ll find out soon.” With one hand, he clasped both her hands above her head and pressed his lips against hers.

Erin finally realized that when he said punishment, he meant sex. She resisted him instinctively. Whenever Chandler wanted to have sex with her, she couldn’t help but think how low she had stooped, becoming his sex loy.

Her resistance made Chandler furrow his brow. Their lips parted. He grabbed her by the chin with his other hand and said menacingly.” Don’t you see how useless it is resisting me? This game of yours should stop! Unless you like being forced upon?”

Erin instantly blushed at what he said. She yelled, “How dare you! You know that I’m being forced by you. How could you say that about me?” She instantly felt aggrieved, and tears started to well up in her eyes.

It was an eyesore to Chandler. The hotness of his gaze cooled down, and he let her go before getting up and leaving. He took a few steps before turning around and saying to her coldly, “Erin, you’re fucking ignorant! Don’t you know who rescued your mom and friend last night?

Do you think I like to force myself upon you every time?”

Erin could feel his disappointment and fury. She thought back about everything that had happened in King Midas Club the night before.

She still understood right from wrong. She knew she wouldn’t have left Aunder safely if it weren’t for him.

“I’m really grateful for you helping my mother…” That was all she could say before trailing off.
