I hiss when he reaches for my leg and places it right on his thigh making me jerk my head in his direction with surprise.

“What are you doing?” I furrow my eyebrows.

“Just sit still.” He doesn’t even look at me. His eyes are focused on my leg.

The moment he raises my leg a little higher, my breath hitches because I fear that my underwear might be exposed to him even if my dress is long. But because I don’t want that to happen 1 try to pull my leg back. That action only makes me hiss again as it causes me more pain.

As much as I don’t want to admit it, seeing him from this angle is just as equally attractive as any other angle I’ve seen him from. Despite his arrogance, he’s extremely handsome and that’s something I just have to admit to myself.

When he suddenly lifts his head to look at me, I look away and face outside.
