Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Chapter 17 Eyesore

Anastasia stared at the man that was worried about her. “Does my character matter to you that much, Elliot? I’m not married to you, so it shouldn’t matter to you even if I screw myself up.”

Then, she turned around and wanted to leave, but her arms were grabbed by the man before he pushed her against the wall within the next second while his handsome face met hers in proximity.

There was anger in the man’s eyes as he sneered, “Looks like I’ve overestimated your capability, Anastasia.”

“Let go of me, Elliot. You a*shole!” Besides what happened that night five years ago, Anastasia had never been in such close proximity to a man.

She moved away in disgust when the man’s scent entered her nose. No matter how handsome Elliot was, Anastasia was disgusted by any men who had ever touched Hayley.

On the other hand, Elliot was stunned for a few seconds when he got closer to Anastasia as her scent reminded him of that night five years ago.

It was the similar faint floral scent that seduced him, and he couldn’t help but imagine how soft Anastasia’s red and full lips would feel if he kissed her.
