Chapter 59 - Pride and Possession (2/2)
She tipped his chin that perched on the plane of her shoulders that their eyes locked on their reflection in the mirror. A glint of confidence shone from her eyes as she smirked.
He tightened his arms around her waist, slightly lifting her feet off the floor. ”Nobody comes close to you, Olivia.”
”WHAAA-” Olivia squealed when Maxen whisked her up and threw her on the bed.
He crawled on top of her, tasting her sweet lips and stealing her breath away. Maxen smirked upon seeing her flushed in pink cheeks and closed eyes.
”I was never a jealous man, Olivia.” He skimmed his hand on her exposed t.h.i.g.h, the tip of his nose brushed on the length of her neck. ”But who knew I would feel such an emotion one day the moment you entered my life. Seeing you gave me both the feeling of pride and possession and the need to cage you increases the longer I see you.”
”Unfortunately, I'm not a 'thing' to be possessed.” She pulled her weight with her elbows and stared at Maxen who was now wedged between her legs.
”Absolutely,” he agreed, widening the high slit of her gown. ”You're a goddess, Olivia. And I will even worship the land that you would set foot on.”
Down between her legs, a c.o.c.ky smile tugged a corner of Maxen's lips upon seeing horror flash on Olivia's face after she saw the big red bite mark that would definitely bruise her t.h.i.g.h.
Seething with rage, Olivia kicked Maxen off the bed and checked her t.h.i.g.h. However, the frown on her face slowly turned into a faint helpless smile when Maxen's merry and contagious laughter echoed in the room.
”What. An. Arse.” Olivia gritted words in her teeth that her lips quivered.
Satisfied with his work of art, Maxen stood up from the floor and peeled Olivia from the bed.
He watched as Olivia stomped out of the bedroom, and could hear her w.h.i.n.e and protest to Eli.
He followed her outside to the living room and saw for himself how Eli and his team's faces turned red upon seeing Olivia's bruised t.h.i.g.h.
”Before you get mad at me, we could remedy this situation and you can still wear this beautiful piece. See?” He clipped a part of the high slit lower to cover his marking. ”I think Eli could stitch this a little lower to cover it.”
Before Maxen could utter more words, the crowd inside Olivia's apartment was having a mental breakdown as they processed the events that unfold before them.
They could only watch in horror as Olivia assaulted the country's prince, throwing everything that her hands could grab onto while Maxen laughed in glee dodging everything that flew his way.
