TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING novel Chapter 12

CHAPTER 10: THE FIVE–MINUTE DARE–2

I forget about Gale. Even Knox.

I just see myself.

Stunning.

When I open the bathroom door, the team collectively gasps.

Even Simone whistles low. “Now that is a fucking entrance.”

She makes me spin. “You’re going to cause a riot in this.”

The tan woman beams. “You look lethal. In the best way.”

Simone touches my cheek. “Walk with confidence tonight. You’re untouchable.”

There’s movement behind them.

Knox stands in the doorway, phone forgotten in his hand. He goes completely still.

His eyes drag over every inch of me–slowly, possessively, hungrily. The gold in his irises flares brighter, almost molten. His jaw tightens visibly.

The air in the room changes. Gets heavier. Hotter.

Nobody moves. Even I forget how to breathe.

“Well?” My voice comes out breathier than intended. “Is it too much?”

Knox doesn’t answer immediately. He just stares at me like I’m something he wants to devour. When he finally moves, it’s with that predatory grace that makes my stomach flip.

He doesn’t stop until he’s right in front of me, close enough that I have to tilt my head back to

meet his eyes.

“Not enough,” he says, voice rough and low.

Then he turns to the team without breaking eye contact with me.

“Everyone out. Five minutes.”

Simone’s lips curve knowingly. “Five minutes. Got it.”

The team vanishes, the door clicking shut behind them.

Knox locks it.

The sound makes my pulse spike.

He circles me slowly, and I feel his gaze like the sweetest caress–burning across my shoulders, down my spine, over the curve of my ass. When he’s behind me, his fingers find the zipper and drag it down in one smooth motion.

The dress pools at my feet.
