Chapter 86 - Eighty-six : He Wants To Murder Me (2/2)

”I might be a little rusty with this dance cause I haven't gone to this sort of event in years. So expect a few stepping on toes disaster ” I confessed and his eyes twinkled in amusement.

”Duly noted . ” He said but my breath hitched in my throat when he suddenly held me close, his hips pressed flush against mine while bracing his hands on my hips.

” What are you doing? ” I asked alarmed.

”Shhhh, relax and just follow my lead ” he hushed me and began to sway to the music and I had no choice than to keep up with him. I had one hand in his while the other rested on his shoulder.

Unconsciously , I looked over my shoulder and met many gazes and though we weren't the only one dancing but their eyes were trained on us excluding Nik's . Where the hell was he?

My eyes caught a few reporters at a corner of the room who were given exclusive invitation into the ballroom take pictures of us and my stomach churned.This would definitely make the tabloids tomorrow.

Suddenly Eden spined me around and slowly lowers me in the direction of his knee, letting his hand run down my curves and causing tingles down my spine .

As much as I would love to bash him on the head for such foul play but I held unto his shoulder for support else I'll lose my balance and kiss the ground.

Though Kim's family was an asshole but I was grateful they gave me dance lessons when I was little, though I knew they did it so I don't embarrass them in social events but it sure came in handy now .

With one of his hands wrapped firmly around my waist and the other cradling the base of my neck, Eden pulled me back up and I couldn't have been more grateful.

Breathless,I was still trying to catch my breath when I felt his hand suddenly travel down my side and found the slit in my gown, moved his hand inside the skirt and stroked the skin of my inner thigh causing my eyes to widen.

I tried to pull away but I couldn't move an inch, his grip around my waist was iron and like an impregnable fortress, I couldn't escape.

”What do you think you're doing? ” I literally spat fire from my eyes.

He smirked and gestured with his head and my gaze followed as he said ”Trying to unruffle my dear cousin ”

My breath hitched when I discovered Niklaus was in same dancing floor with us, and even with the distance between us , I could feel the anger coming off of him.

Though he had a partner in his arms - which thankfully was not Tina - but he was the lest interested and instead trained his eyes on us in such a way that will make someone feel self conscious .

To others watching we were waltzing perfectly across the floor since such dance requires intimate contacts and movements but Nik knew otherwise. And Eden was making it worse by creating ambiguous postures.

He pulled me closer, leaned in and whispered into my ears ” Do you see the fire in his eyes? He wants to murder me ”

I couldn't even bear to look Niklaus in the eye, I've seen those furious eyes before and what happens afterwards.

Suddenly there was a general twirl as all the male dancers turned their partners as if choreographed but there was an interruption.

Instead of spinning back into the arms of Eden, there was a switch and I ended up with Nik instead while Eden ended up with Nik's own partner.

Oh - boy
