Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 1027

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, my mouth was filled with a strong, musky scent that screamed all things male.

My eyes widened in sheer panic!

I flailed, trying to push the weight off me!

But he was like a boulder, immovable. In a fit of desperation, I bit down hard!

"Ouch..."

Jack yelped in pain.

But I was relentless, clinging on like my life depended on it!

Soon, the taste of iron flooded my mouth as blood mingled with saliva.

"Let...go..."

His words were muffled, punctuated by my unyielding grip.

Out of options, Jack pinched my cheeks, forcing me to release him.

Realizing how violently I was shaking, he panicked...He had crossed a line!

"Hey, it's me, Jack! Look at me," he urged, ignoring his torn lip, his hand gently stroking my arm. "It's just me, no one else."

Silence hung between us for a heartbeat, then another.

I stared at him, unblinking.

Then, realization hit, and I glared, my voice laced with fury, "Why the heck did you scare me? Is this some kind of sick joke to you?"

"I'm sorry..."

Jack's apology was sincere. "I got carried away...you were screaming my name in fear...I couldn't help myself."
