The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 223

Chapter 0223 Judys POV By the time we finished our training , the sun was alreatly setting .

I was exhausted and I wanted to return to the mansion where I could finally spend some time with Gavin .

I was craving his touch and hadnt realized how much I craved him until I felt his fingers on my arm earlier today .

My cheeks burned at the memory and a small smile tugged at the corner of my lips .

What are you smiling at ? Gavin asked as I walked around the corner .

I froze when I saw him leaning against the wall of the corridor , his arms folded casually across his chest .

Just thinking , I teased as I started to walk past him wanted to go to the bathroom , but his hand .

around my wrist stopped me and soon , I was spinning around to face him just before he took me and pressed me against the wall .

My body flared to life from his nearness and my breath hitched in my throat .

He was lucky we were completely alone right now because if anyone were to see us , it would only feed the rumor mill .

What were you thinking about ? He asked , a smirk on his lips .

My heart was pounding in my chest as I looked up at him .

Wouldnt you like to know , I said , winking at him .

Lattempted to wiggle out from against him , but he had me pinned between the wall and his body .noveldrama

His lips found mine before I could utter a single word , and / my entire body lit up to life .

He tasted so sweet , and his kiss was way gentler than thought it would have been .

His lips moved perfectly against mine and his tongue slid out to taste my bottom lip , asking permission to enter my mouth .

Permission that I gladly gave him .

I found myself moaning softly against his lips , wanting to deepen the embrace .

I wrapped my arms around his neck and ran my fingers through his hair , massaging his scalp lovingly , Skylas words continued to play in my mind ; he deserves someone who would stick by him no matter what .

Someone who would never let him go .

Was that someone me ? Was I ready to commit myself to another man after I was hurt by my mate so badly ? How did I know that Gavin wouldnt hurt me in the same way that Ethan had ? Was that something Gavin would even want ? Did he want a true relationship with me ? I had so many questions in my mind , but the only thing I truly wanted right now was his lips on mine .

He lifted me up and my legs instinctively wrapped around his waist .

He ran his fingers up my bare back beneath my shirt as he started to walk us towards the bathroom .

But then the sounds of falling and screaming were like dumping cold water on whatever was about to happen .

Gavin dropped me to the ground before I could get the chance to comprehend what had happened .

My back hit the ground with a thud , and I winced in pain , cursing softly as he ran from the corridor and towards the main foyer .

I knew my tailbone was going to bruise .

I struggled to get to my feet .

I hadnt realized that I hurt my leg during that fall until I attempted to walk , and pain shat up my spine .
