Chapter 43
I shivered, placing a foot cautiously, while watching Eros keenly. My feet was in, while the rest of my body still hung out the window.
Eros eyes narrowed as he watched my every movement as though expecting me to run any second… Well, that doesn’t seem like a bad idea.
“Don’t even think about it, Butter,” he warned “because I’ll just catch you, and punish you when I do,”
This is not good… he is still mad…
“Why don’t you come in, my love?” he coaxed sweetly, but I sensed the warning bell in his tone. A trap.. and with the way, he’s eyeing me like a predator.. everything about him was screaming danger.
I will just–I leaped, jumping to the ground. I sprinted, grabbing the nearest tree branch and hauling myself up.
I was in my human form, yet so fast… I’d learnt in the last couple of days that I was growing in strength and speed even without shifting. Maybe not so strong and deadly as in my Hybrid form, but it was cool…
I heard the whooshing sound of the wind and propelled myself forward faster, and faster. I could sense movements behind me. Eros was close.. My heart was hammering, and my blood was pumping loudly. Pure adrenaline rushed through me.
I pushed harder and swung myself onto the branches and trees.
For a second, I felt I was loosing him. Suddenly an arm snatched me in mid–air when I tried to grab onto another branch. I yelped as his firm arm wrapped around my waist, pressing me close to his body.
He kept going, faster than I ever was. The wind was knocking out my breath, so I wrapped my arms around his neck, and my legs moved to circle his waist.
Oh, he smells heavenly. How I miss his amazing scent… Wait!!! what am I thinking? Suddenly I remembered his threat. My stomach clenched at the thought of what he might do to me.
Everything seemed to be a blur around me. What was I thinking trying to outrun him?!
He kept going further, and further and I have no idea where we were when he finally stopped.
He released his hold on me and I quickly jumped a few feet away from him.
“Now Butter, we’re all alone,” he licked his lips sexily, feelings satisfied.
His skin was a bit flushed from all the running he just did…. Oh goddess, he’s still the sexiest man I’ve ever laid my eyes on. “What are you planning to do to me?” I asked warily.
His eyes raked up, and down my body as though he could see through my clothing. “What do you think I would do to you, Butter?” he sounded amused, his lips curling up into a feral smile
His sapphire eyes flashed with anger, hunger and desperation. Itset my heart racing.
“Maybe I’m tired of waiting, of being patient. Maybe this time, I’ll take just take everything…
I bit my lips, and crossed my legs tightly. It sent a signal to my core.
I looked around and saw trees, mountains and rocks around us. We were standing in the middle of a large clearing
I thought of means to escape, but he took a step closer and I moved back..

He chuckled bitterly and stopped walking. He pocketed his hands in his trousers.
sounding relaxed, but the intensity in his eyes were far from being relaxed.
Gosh! Why was I was I wearing a skimpy skirt.
In a blink of an eye, he’s on me. His nose flared, and his eyes flashed dangerously.
His hand went to my back to pin my body up against his. The other hand grabbed the back of my neck while his thumb pushed my chin up so that I was looking up into his face.
“Don’t you dare say that again. You are mine! Every single inch of you is mine,” he growled possessively, capturing my lips angrily.
