Chapter 161

Selena just couldn't match his audacity. His bold words rolled off his tongue like it was second nature. She turned her face away, denying his insinuations with a huff. "It's just a normal reaction, don't get too full of yourself!"

Seeing her stubborn defiance only fueled Everett's competitive streak. He couldn't believe she felt nothing for him now, especially when he remembered how she used to cling to him, and her head nuzzled against him like a kitten seeking affection.
