“Mrs. Hawk, are you so eager to throw yourself into my arms?” Nicholas asked mockingly.
The lingering warmth from my bath couldn’t warm me up. The cold fabric of his suit pressed against me, and I shivered violently.
I looked up at him, my body trembling from the sudden temperature change. “Who let you in? You promised not to come to my house uninvited!”
