Chapter 58 Dying Of Embarrassment

Mischief danced in Dominic’s eyes as he moved to make room. “Not coming in?”

I stepped back and said, “No, I must’ve gotten mixed up. I’m looking for Mitch.”

I was about to turn away and knock on the adjacent door when Dominic pulled me into his room.

His tug threw me off balance as I tripped on the thick carpeting in the hallway. I would have fallen facedown on the floor if I did not reach out and steady myself on the doorframe.

“What the heck are you doing? I already said I wasn’t looking for you.”

“Are you dying to see Mitch or something?”

Still annoyed, the words were out of my mouth before I could think better of them. “Yes. You got a problem with that?”

I only wanted to find Mitch for my brother’s sake, and here Dominic was, sticking his foot into every piece of my business. Hmph! I spun on my heels to leave, irritated.

“Liliana.”

At the sound of my name, I turned instinctively to face him, only to feel his lips firmly on mine.

Disconcerted, I made a feeble attempt to push him away. His hand was, however, locked tightly around the back of my neck, rendering escape futile.

The most outrageous part of it all was his other hand that had snaked around my waist, holding me tightly against the door.

He’s mad! We’re in the hallway, for God’s sake!

My brain stuttered, and I made a last-ditch attempt to knee him in the guts.

Dominic seemed to anticipate my every move. Nimbly, he avoided my attack and wedged a muscular thigh between my legs.

The intensity of his kiss seemed to suck all the oxygen out of my head. I felt like I was suffocating on passion, ready to keel over at a moment’s notice.

“Ahem, couldn’t the two of you, erm, do this behind closed doors?”
