Nathalie froze instantly.
The sheer difference in their physical strength became glaringly obvious. She was completely immobilized beneath him.
f he actually wanted to do something, she wouldn’t stand a chance.
But she had absolutely no desire to be intimate with him. She just wanted

Whoever they were, they genuinely wanted her dead.
She couldn’t help but steal a glance at the man behind the wheel.

Nathalie gave a curt hum of acknowledgment.
She didn’t dare ignore him, terrified he might lose his temper again.
