I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 479

The Bentley had roared right back.

The amber streetlamps coated its sleek, dark metallic paint in a rich, liquid glow.

The elongated chassis crouched low to the pavement, looking like a predatory beast lying in wait.

The high beams pierced the darkness, the guttural thrum of the massive engine vibrating clearly through the quiet night.

Behind the heavily tinted windshield, a dark, rigid silhouette sat firmly behind the wheel.

Sienna could just barely make out Finn's intense features through the glass.

He made no move to kill the engine or step out, simply sitting there in the dark, watching her from the cabin.

In that split second, a fierce, unbearable ache ripped through her chest.

She couldn't stomach the fighting, the icy distance, or the suffocating wedge driving them apart.

At the end of the day, she was the one who shattered her promise.

She had to fix this right now.

She sprinted toward the car just as Finn threw the driver's door open and stepped out onto the asphalt.

They stood on opposite sides of the heavy door, the chilling night wind tearing between them and whipping at the cuffs of his crisp white shirt.

"Finn, I'm—"

The rest of her sentence was obliterated as he lunged forward, dragging her fiercely into the solid, scorching heat of his chest.

One muscular arm clamped around her waist like a vice, while his other hand cupped the back of her head, completely burying her against him.

His large palm splayed possessively across her scalp, his long fingers threading deep into her messy hair.

The grip was devastatingly tender, yet laced with an aggressive, absolute finality that left zero room for resistance.

Sienna tipped her head back to look at him.

The amber glow of the streetlamp slashed across his face, highlighting the razor-sharp angles of his jaw and the heavy set of his brow.

His jaw was locked tight, his lips pressed into a thin, unyielding line.

He still looked intensely displeased.

"Please don't be mad at me. It kills me when you look at me like that."

Her voice immediately cracked, a pathetic sob catching in her throat.

The elevator ride felt like an absolute eternity, crawling upward at a torturous pace!

Inside the cab, Finn's breathing was heavy and ragged, his dark eyes locked furiously onto the ticking floor numbers.

His grip on Sienna's soft hand was painfully tight.

The very last shredded scraps of his restraint were rapidly disintegrating.

When they finally hit her door, Finn punched in the passcode, his fingers trembling so violently that he botched it twice, triggering the angry red error light.

He swore viciously under his breath before spinning around, slamming his mouth back down onto hers.

He was entirely out of patience.

Sienna found herself pinned flush against the heavy front door, trapped between the freezing steel at her back and the absolute inferno of his chest.

His kiss was ruthless and frantic, completely desperate to obliterate every second of the toxic silence they had endured in the car.

Kissing him back with equal fervor, she blindly reached behind her and tapped in the code, the heavy lock finally clicking open with a loud thud.

They practically fell through the doorway, a tangled, desperate mess of limbs.
