He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 159

But the words of submission died in her throat. She couldn't stomach the thought of begging him again. At the same time, the terrifying reality set in—Wynn couldn't die. If her brother died, her entire will to live would die with him.

And if she completely shattered, Sebastian would never see a single cent of those shares. That thought forced a jarring wave of clarity through her mind. He needed Wynn alive just as badly as she did, if only to keep her compliant.

She knew the logic, but the fear of Sebastian torturing Wynn or keeping him alive on machines was a completely different nightmare. She was the one trapped in this psychological warfare, not him. The anxiety was eating her alive.

Suddenly, a shadow fell over her. She snapped her head up just as Sebastian leaned in. Their lips collided, instantly plunging the frantic energy of the room into something incredibly twisted and sensual.

In seven years of marriage, they had never shared a moment this deeply intimate. She completely froze, her brain short-circuiting in absolute shock.

Sebastian's predatory gaze darkened as he pressed firmly against her. Her lips were impossibly soft, tasting sweet and fragrant like fresh peaches. It was a completely different scent from Janetta's heavy perfumes, and it sent an addictive, intoxicating rush straight to his brain.

He had always known she was a beautiful woman, with a voice that practically hummed with a seductive cadence when she argued. But this was the very first time he had truly allowed himself to taste it. His Adam's apple bobbed as an undeniable, blazing heat pooled in his gut.

In a fraction of a second, his arm wrapped tightly around her waist, pulling her flush against his body. The forceful press of lips evolved into a ravenous, demanding French kiss. The sheer intensity of it seared straight to her bones, sending a chaotic, terrifying jolt of electricity down her spine.

She never saw it coming. As she parted her lips to gasp, he ruthlessly took advantage, his tongue invading her mouth with complete physical dominance. She was trapped securely against the wall.
