The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 8

Shopping with the Enemy

I had to gasp for air after making out with Lexus for so long. I'd never forget the taste of his tongue and the way his grip on my waist felt. I've been kissed before but not like this. He didn't let me catch my breath for long. He was aggressively pulling me closer against him. I dug my nails into the side of his arms and closed my eyes tightly while my tongue danced with his. His hands tugged on my clothes. I had to take back the control and once he realized I was trying to push him away he stopped.

He stared down at me while I wiped my mouth. "What?" I asked. I stared at his engagement ring and my chest got heavier. All I could do was be mad at myself.

Lexus looked at his ring when he noticed I was. "It's not your job to worry about it."

"Did you tell that to the last girl?" My eyes were watering up which made me even more mad at myself.

Lexus sighed of annoyance. "No, I told her I'd kill her if anyone found out." He rubbed the back of his head. "It was a different situation that I regret Aqua. Are you guessing or did someone tell you?"

Maybe I shouldn't be repeating what Arma, Stewart or Cade tell me. I don't want to get anyone in any trouble. "I..."

"It wasn't Cade right?" Lexus changed his question.

I shook my head. "No, no." It wasn't a lie since Arma implied it and not Cade. Cade was the one convinced Arma was wrong. "It was mostly a guess; they didn't say anything with detail. You're not going to follow through with your threat, are you?"

"Not unless I had to," his answer scared me. "Everything is fine now because no one knows enough of anything. Everyone just thinks it's rumors." He walked to the door. "Try not to say anything about what just happened okay?"

"Only if it doesn't happen again." I couldn't keep this going.

He chuckled. "How about this? I'll let you make the next first move." He was so sure I'd crack.

"Fine but only because I won't make a move." I nearly stuttered. He walked out of my room and I laid back on my bed panting. "Fuck."
