Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1461

Serena's thick lashes fluttered, the corners of her eyes lifting slightly.

The heat lingering near her ear, mingled with the man's deep, husky voice, seemed to ignite the very air around them.

She watched Nicholas through the mirror.

He was leaning over her, his shirt collar still parted, his collarbones looking sharp and incredibly tempting beneath the warm light.

His expression was a masterclass in restraint.

Yet, the intense emotion churning in his eyes was so scorching it felt as though it could burn right through the glass.

Suddenly, Serena spun around.

Reaching up, she grabbed his loosened tie and yanked him forward.

Caught off guard, Nicholas leaned into her pull to avoid losing his balance.

The distance between them evaporated completely.

They were so close their breaths tangled together.

Serena sat on her chair, tilting her head up to look at him. Her fingers idly twisted his tie, slowly drawing it taut. "Do you really have that little faith in your provisional fiancée?"

Nicholas braced both hands firmly on the edge of the vanity behind her, ensuring he wouldn't crush her with his weight.

His large frame completely caged Serena in, trapping her between the vanity and his chest.

It was a highly predatory posture.

But instead of making a move, he simply looked down at her face, which was mere inches away.

His Adam's apple bobbed aggressively.

Fresh out of the shower, her features held a dewy, captivating flush that wasn't usually there.

Her lips were tinted a soft red.

The outer corners of her eyes curved upward naturally.

Yet her expression retained that signature cold, indolent edge.

She was effortlessly seductive.

And those cool, luminous eyes of his were stunningly beautiful.

There was a casual dominance in her gaze.

It felt as though with just a flick of her finger, she could completely claim his soul.

Nicholas's voice was hoarse. "It's not that I don't trust you."

He lowered his head, gently resting his chin on her shoulder, completely shedding the hardened armor he wore for the rest of the world. "I'm just terrified you'll leave me behind."

Serena's fingers paused on his tie.
