Chapter 43

It was an accident! She didn’t want this to happen either!

Elgin snorted with a hint of frost, “You think I can’t see what’s going on?”

Letitia rolled her eyes in frustration, “Think whatever you want, I’m going to bed.”

No sooner had her words faded than Elgin dipped down and sealed her lips with his. The wispy strands of hair from his forehead fell, tickling her eyes and causing a distracting itch.

This time, Elgin’s kiss was gentle as a feather touch. Not like before, when he was all rough and forceful.

Just as Letitia’s hand lifted in a feeble attempt to push him away, he caught it and hoisted it over her head.

“Should I grant your wish?” Elgin’s voice was a low growl, “So you don’t have to scheme to seduce me”

“I didn’t… mmph.”

Suddenly, Elgin turned rough again, his kiss fierce enough to draw blood from her lips.

Letitia’s brows knitted in pain. The more she resisted, the harder he pressed down on her.

Out of options, Letitia bit him hard, and the taste of blood filled both of their mouths.

As Elgin pulled back, his hands braced beside her ears, he stared into her eyes with an unfathomable depth, not even blinking.

A drop of blood adorned the corner of his mouth, giving him a dangerously enticing look.

Letitia couldn’t fathom his thoughts and kept silent.

Elgin was a ticking bomb one wrong word and she’d be in for a world of hurt.

After what felt like an eternity, Elgin finally spoke, “…Sometimes I really wish you’d succeed in seducing me. But I can’t give you what you want!”

He raised his hand and cleaned the blood on her lips.

Letitia maintained her silence.

This version of Elgin was the most dangerous, looking like he could blow a fuse at any given moment.
