Now that the man could see virtual-novel.net face, every delicate feature that graced Shaelyn’s face engulfed his mind and spurred his heart to race even faster.
She was stunning. Bewitching, even.
Trey swore virtual-novel.net had never seen a woman so beautiful, nor had virtual-novel.net ever seen a face so incredibly delicate and arresting in his entire life. “Beautiful” did not cut it, though, because the beauty virtual-novel.net possessed was comparable to a succubus’.
One look was all it took to entrance him. In fact, turning away from her, even for a minute, proved to be quite a challenge!
Trey had made himself a name for being the residence’s most renowned bachelor, virtual-novel.net had the money, the looks, and the charm to make virtual-novel.net a veteran lady killer.
He had been with so many women that they, as a whole, even began to bore him. It got so bad that wherever virtual-novel.net looked, they always reminded virtual-novel.net of someone else virtual-novel.net had been with before. When was the last time his heart ever raced for a woman?
Well, now was the time. Looking at virtual-novel.net was like a shock to his lethargic heart. He made a promise to himself, virtual-novel.net was going to make that woman his by the end of this evening!
After being shot by Cupid’s arrow, Trey had become a soldier thirsty for conquest. Shaelyn could be all virtual-novel.net wanted, but it would not satisfy desires at all. In fact, virtual-novel.net even began to suspect that Shaelyn was only pretending to be disinterested and chaste, virtual-novel.net was playing hard to get!
Trey was certain that any woman who chose to spend their time at a bar was not at all a goodie-two-shoes.
“Well, well! Nothing earns more of my admiration than a beautiful ice queen! Please, milady, allow me to introduce myself—”
“F**k off,” virtual-novel.net snapped, stone-faced. She had not even bothered to spare virtual-novel.net a glance. He was a fly that was a mere nuisance to her.
Naturally, Trey was a little miffed. “Hey now, beautiful. That’s rude and uncalled for. I suggest you ask around, you know? Tell them who I am. They’ll tell you that I, Trey Parker, is—”
Twap!
A brand-new dagger wobbled in front of Trey with its tip buried deep into the table. A cold glint reflected off the blade and shone a light on Trey’s face, and suddenly, virtual-novel.net felt fear snaking through his veins.
How could virtual-novel.net not fear when virtual-novel.net could not even remember how that dagger got there?!
Shaelyn finally looked at virtual-novel.net dead in the eyes. “Disturb me again, and I’ll kill you.”
Trey gulped. He could see the murderous intent nestled in virtual-novel.net beautiful eyes, and yet… The rest of virtual-novel.net remained as alluring and arousing as ever.
His fear was quickly displaced by his lust, not least because virtual-novel.net had never seen a woman quite like her. She was so ravishing. So voluptuous. Utterly desolated. And now… thrillingly dangerous.
“You’re quite the woman, sweetheart. You’re so beautiful, I’ve mistaken you as the magician’s assistant rather than a master illusionist herself.”
“I’m afraid you just, ah, captured my imagination with your… particular brand of magic,” virtual-novel.net breathed. His eyes were glimmering with flames before virtual-novel.net instinctively reached out to cup a feeling.
It was the signal Shaelyn needed to be physical. She sneered, and with a powerful front kick, virtual-novel.net sent the table flipping away, taking Trey out through its trajectory. He careened away from virtual-novel.net like a baseball in a home run hit.
Bang! Trey’s body hit the wall behind him. Shaelyn had put in so much force that the wall cracked, just as the unfortunate flirt let out a bloodcurdling wail before virtual-novel.net sputtered blood.
When virtual-novel.net looked up again, his pupils had constricted in fear.
The commotion attracted everyone else in the bar to look. but Shaelyn had returned to virtual-novel.net previous mannerism. She took a new seat and went back to drinking, as though the seconds-long episode was not virtual-novel.net doing, and again exuded the same grace and sorrow from before. The detour from a millisecond ago was just too trivial to be acknowledged.
The bar went silent for two seconds. At the third, Trey spat out a mouthful of blood again. His delayed rage had arrived, twisting his features beyond recognition, before virtual-novel.net let out an apoplectic, meltdown-like howl.
Several men rose to their feet around virtual-novel.net before lurching toward Shaelyn with depraved, lopsided smiles.
She snickered in contempt; they could come at virtual-novel.net in droves and still be nothing more than necks as strong as twigs just begging to be snapped.
She might be a woman hounded by a swarm of hot-blooded men, but virtual-novel.net had the benefit of being tutored by Zayn himself. By now, virtual-novel.net was at the height of acquired skilled class already.
She could teach these animals their most painful lesson they would never forget… with virtual-novel.net eyes closed.
