Hearing my name come from his lips sent a strange sensation through me. I tried to muster the strength to push him away, but he pressed his body against mine, stealing my breath for a moment.

Tilting his head, he leaned in closer, his breath warm against my ear. My jaw clenched as his whisper reached me.

"Don't agree to be with him. He doesn't deserve you."

I scoffed, my voice laced with sarcasm. "Oh? And what exactly am I supposed to do? Laugh in his face? Are you saying I should just spend my whole life alone?"

His eyes darkened slightly. "Mmm. You deserve better," he murmured, finally releasing my arms and resting his elbows against the wall beside me.

His words made no sense to me.

"Someone better?" I repeated, my voice sharp. "And where exactly am I supposed to find this 'better' person? You destroyed my life so thoroughly that being alone is my only option. But guess what? Fate is giving me another chance, and I'm not going to waste it."

Before I could say anything else, his palm suddenly covered my mouth.

His head moved away from my ear, and his gaze met mine.

I stiffened. His eyes roamed across my face, studying me. My breath hitched as I blinked and turned my head to the side, avoiding his stare.

Why was he looking at me like that?

I made a muffled sound and tried to pull his hand away, but he only pressed it more firmly against my lips.

"Don't even think about chasing after another so-called chance in the name of fate," he said, his voice dangerously low. "Fate has already shown you its plan. You're just the one fighting against it."

I froze as his meaning settled over me. My fingers stopped struggling against his grip, and instead, I shot him an icy glare.

Slowly, he withdrew his hand, his thumb grazing over my lips before he fully pulled away. His lips parted slightly as he stared down at my mouth, his thumb tracing over my lower lip with a slow, deliberate touch.

Then his gaze dropped lower, taking in my dress.

"Why did you dress like this?" His voice was rougher now. "You know exactly how to get my attention, don't you?"

My eyes burned with fury. Every look, every word that came from him only fueled my anger.

Without thinking, I bit down on his thumb.

He inhaled sharply, clearly not expecting it.

With a hiss, he yanked his hand back, shaking it as a few drops of blood surfaced.

"You're a damn animal," I spat.

His reaction was infuriating. He simply lifted his thumb to his lips, sucking the blood away while keeping his eyes locked on mine.

Then, as if this was all some kind of game to him, he chuckled.

"An animal?" he mused. "No, right now, I feel like a bird set free. Like I've been caged for years."

There was a glint of something dangerous in his eyes-something that made it clear he was enjoying every second of this.

I shut my eyes briefly, gathering every ounce of strength I had left before shoving him away.

This time, I succeeded.

"Two years of being your personal plaything wasn't enough for you?" I snapped. "What do you want now? To sleep with me again just to satisfy your damn cravings?"
