Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run

Chapter 446

Before he knew it, Nicholas was already in the bathroom. Scarlette slowly sat up, suddenly aware she was still soaking in the bath. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself.

"Get out," she said firmly.

Nicholas casually dangled a key in his hand. "You've been staying away too long, so I got a key for your sister's room. Locking the door won't help."

He tossed the key onto the sink and crouched beside the tub. Just as Scarlette was about to speak, footsteps echoed from outside, and Rose's voice followed. "Nicholas, I brought you some hot chocolate. Drink it after your bath before bed."

Scarlette's eyes widened as Nicholas covered her mouth with his hand. He leaned closer, biting her collarbone gently and licking away the water droplets. "Go ahead, scream if you want. I'm not bothered."

In the Greenard household, Nicholas feared no one.

Furious, Scarlette tried to slap him, but he caught her wrist effortlessly. Nicholas grinned, nibbling on her fingertips, one by one. "I don't mind a slap, but you always hold back. If Mom and Dad notice any marks, how would I explain?"
