Chapter 46: Bound to Happen
Greg did not like the uncertainty on Cammy’s face, he felt a tiny ache inside his chest as if he was pricked by a needle directly to his heart. That pain soon turned to a wave of anger, his possessiveness flared up.
"If you’re unsure of your answer, let me remind you..." Greg swiftly but gently cupped the back of her head and her cheek, drawing her close. His lips brushed lightly against hers, teasing before he deepened the kiss, licking and sucking each one with passionate intensity.
Cammy was so taken aback that she froze, struggling to collect herself. When she finally did, her hands pressed against his chest, ready to push him away. But before she could, Greg released her and stepped out of the car.
She watched as he walked to the front, heading to her side. He opened her door and extended his hand. Cammy hesitated for a moment, then cleared her throat and accepted his gesture.
As she approached the building’s entrance, Greg suddenly grabbed her arm and whispered, "Remember that kiss, Cammy. Remember the night we spent together whenever you doubt your feelings toward Duncan. You deserve to be treated like a woman and not like trash. You deserve more and he will never give that to you. Keep that in mind."
Cammy swallowed hard, unsettled by the sensual tone of his voice and the harsh truth in his words. She nearly stumbled when he released her arm.
Without looking back, Greg got into his car and drove away. As she watched him leave, a wave of nausea and confusion washed over her, as if a piece of her had been taken with him.
’What is happening? Why am I feeling this way? That man is becoming far too bold in touching me!’ she thought, still shaken, as she made her way back to the office.
When Cammy returned to her department, she found it empty as her team was still out. Determined to distract herself, she dove back into her design layout, even though it was still her lunch break. Her hands moved automatically, trying to calm her swirling thoughts by focusing on work.
