“Mr. Shaw, you… you can get up! You… really can get up!”

I pressed my hands against his chest. My expression was firm and calm, but my stuttering showed how panicked I was. I didn’t care if he felt anything, I wasn’t going to be the “antidote.”

You said this works, and I believe you.”

Kander changed positions, pinning me beneath him. Hot breath escaped his thin lips, his lips about to touch my face.

…!!

I forcefully turned, using my hands to pull myself towards the edge of the tub.

His broad, muscular chest pressed against my back, not quite pressing against my waist, but trapping me in the tub. “Sophia, why are you lying down? Do you like that position?”

My face flushed. I hated that I understood instantly!

The drug was really something else! An hour of ice water didn’t work at all!

You’re not thinking clearly now. Calm down; don’t ruin your reputation; I’m innocent!”

‘I don’t care much about reputation.” His breath fell on my collarbone.

I was about to collapse. I instantly transformed to wolf, struggling in the water as if I would smash a hole in the tub.

Xander didn’t expect such a violent reaction, unable to hold me down. Like a carp, I’jumped on him, hitting every “trigger point.” What had been manageable became uncontrollable.

‘Stop!”

His sudden command stopped me. We both froze.

Me, as a wolf, occupied more of the tub. Our tightly pressed bodies were like a bomb about to explode, every slight movement charged with emotion.

Leaning against the tub, my face burned. Even as a wolf, my senses were heightened. I closed my eyes briefly, a self–deprecating, humorous thought crossing my mind, With this incredible size, this is fatal.*

Behind me, his breathing was heavy. The ice water was rapidly melting, becoming lukewarm, even warming.

I dared not turn around, nor move… I thought sarcastically, “Staying still leaves a sliver of hope; moving will mean…

After what felt like a long time,

‘Is there enough ice?”

A weary voice, sounding like he’d suffered a serious internal injury, came from behind.

…Enough! Yes! I’ll get more immediately!”

I quickly said.

Xander leaned back, resting against the tub.

I scrambled out of the tub… When I stopped, I was soaking wet, standing in the kitchen, not knowing how I got there. I shook off the ice water.

I considered leaving the villa. After ten minutes of agonizing, I gritted my teeth, shifted back to human, and got more ice.

I planned to put the ice by the bathroom door, then lock my room.

But when I returned with the ice, I found that… his door was locked.
