Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 185

The bed suddenly dipped beside her. The man slid his hand around her waist, holding her like a possession. "Or I could come find you instead."

Grace suddenly became alert. She sat up immediately, wanting to leave. But with no lights in the room, she had no idea where the exit was.

The man hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. His tone was casual but carried a hint of hidden hurt as he asked, "Did I make you uncomfortable?"

Her back stiffened, and she bit her lip. "Not exactly. It's just... we don't really know each other well, so this seems a bit weird. And you pulled my hair pretty hard earlier. It hurt."

Grace fell silent instantly. She wanted to crawl into a hole. Could he please stop talking?

Everything that had happened here today was just a small mistake. Once she left this room, it would be best if everyone forgot about it.

Whatever he'd put in her mouth at the beginning must have been the problem. Otherwise, she wouldn't have lost control and let him kiss her for hours. But she was the one who had jokingly asked for the special service, so she really had brought this upon herself.

When she didn't respond, the man took her hand and placed it on his face. She couldn't see his features, but the well-defined face beneath her palm surely belonged to a handsome man.

"Last time, you said you'd come back. I waited for you for a long time. A really long time."

Grace froze. So, had she booked him for a service before? That couldn't be right. Wasn't she madly in love with Yancey back then?

He held her tightly, his breathing becoming heavy and labored. Grace's chest suddenly clenched. She really did have a savior complex.
