Chapter 257

Chapter 257 Noelles mind was ringing loud and chaotic like someone had set off a bomb in her head She stared at Brandon in shock , stumbling backward , completely overwhelmed .

He kissed her.

On the lips , How could he kiss her ? She was Nicolass fiancée .

Even Nicolas hadnt kissed her on the lips yet and now Brandon had just done it without asking .

Noelle didnt fully understand the intricacies of romance or social rules , not yet .

Shed seen people kiss on the mouth as a casual greeting back when she was abroad , even between people who werent lovers .

But this felt different.

She knew it was different .

If Nicolas found out , hed be furious .

Noelle , whats wrong ? Brandon stepped forward and took her hand , stopping her from retreating further .

Her eyes turned red instantly .

She bit her lip , voice trembling like a child whod just been scolded .

Brandon … why did you kiss me ? You er lip .

cant Youre not supposed to kiss me.

Not supposed to ? Brandon raised an eyebrow , his tone still smooth but there was a new edge to it now .

He stepped in close , tilted her chin up with his fingers , forcing her to look at him .

His smile lingered , charming on the surface , but cold and commanding beneath What exactly is it that I cant do to you , Noelle ? he asked , his tone soft yet unmistakably threatening .

But Brandon didnt let her speak .

He pressed on , his grip firm .

Arent you mine ! I own you .

Every part of you belongs to me your body , your mind , your loyalty .

If thats true , shouldnt you accept everything I do to you … gladly ? His emerald green eyes bore into hers , unblinking .

Noelle opened her mouth to speak , to protest … but no sound came .

She had been raised in a lab . Conditioned from the start to obey .
