Chapter 72: Black Predator [1]
Liam could feel Lorna’s body tense due to how close they were, being this close Liam could see the undeniable resemblance, the same cheekbones, the same shape of face, those thick eyelashes and those green eyes he couldn’t stop staring at and those lips he loved to kiss so much. Everything he saw in this agent was everything about his Riley he just couldn’t resist, but he hid those emotions with an intent to kill her.
"Are you gonna kill me?".
Those words made his body tense a bit, can he? When she looks exactly like his long-lost love?
He didn’t answer, what word could he say, When he didn’t trust his own body around this agent, his decision when it came to her was against his very rule against an agent, for one the only reason he agreed to this game in the first place was a way of keeping her safe away from those hungry claw’s.
He didn’t wanna involve her in a close battle knowing very well their second target would be her, with this, he can keep her at a safe distance while he took out the Claw’s and gain the information he needed and then decides what he does with this agent next, she was a distraction he didn’t like, a constant reminder of someone he can’t have.
His eyes still burn in hers as she waited for his answer which he wasn’t sure he could give, her looks were always catching him off guard, speaking of looks Riley had a birthmark behind her neck, maybe just maybe, that was Liam’s thought as he leaned close to her.
Lorna’s body tense at Liam’s sudden action, she thought for a moment he would kiss her with those lips she found attractive. ’What’s he gonna do?’ she panics in her head.
Liam leans close brushing his face against her soft hair, it reminds him of Riley’s, her jacket blocked the access to her neck, he needed to see for himself, if maybe just maybe, the lady standing right in front of him was her.
"What are yo-" before Lorna could finish her words a roar came in, they both turned to the position it came in, about two Claw’s came after them.
Lorna panics as she intends to draw herself from his grip and run for the hills, but Liam didn’t let go, he was calm as the Claw’s came forth.
"Switch!".
