A Love Rekindled (Nancy and Bruce) novel Chapter 46

Bruce glared down at me darkly. "You've been acting differently ever since you got close to Douglas."

The corners of my mouth twitched and I rolled my eyes. "You've had too many drinks. Should I go get Cindy?"

Bruce furrowed his brows at the mention of Cindy. I had clearly touched a sensitive spot.

Not wanting to create a scene, I reached for the door handle after a moment of silence. Suddenly, something warm pressed against my lips and Bruce pinned me against the door.

Bruce was insane. He was a madman.

I struggled, but it was futile. His kiss was intense and dominating as if he wanted to consume me entirely.

Filled with anger, I bit down on his lip until I tasted blood. Yet, Bruce didn't relent and only deepened his kiss like a wild animal. His fingers even grazed the slit of my dress.

Having had enough, I murmured, "Why are you in such a hurry, Mr. Harold? Is Ms. Lane not enough for you?"

Bruce stopped abruptly and stared at me in disbelief. I met his gaze, unwavering.

The lounge was eerily quiet and I could hear Bruce's erratic breathing. Yet, it was also filled with distant chatter from outside the door.

We stood facing each other. This time, I refused to back down.

After what felt like an eternity, Bruce finally mumbled, "I don't want to scare her."

His words felt like a slap in the face.

He didn't want to scare Cindy.

I see. The girl was inexperienced and timid, someone who needed protection. Unlike me, who had been intimate with him long before.

We tore away from each other. It took me a while to compose myself. Looking at the torn slit of my dress, I couldn't help but feel both amused and exasperated.
