Chapter 21: The Eternal Garden {1}
"Tell me Sylvia..." he began, his fingers still beneath my chin.
I shiver, my name rolling off his tongue always does that to me.
"What were you thinking?" he asked huskily, drawing close to me, so close that there wasn’t any space between us.
I couldn’t take my eyes off him, it was just glued to his perfectly handsome face that could get any girl tripping and I was... really bad.
He tilts his head to the side at my silence, a wicked smirk curled at the end of his lip just one side of it, like he knew what he was doing to me.
Dear Lord! The feeling to my core was becoming unbearable? Why?
"I believe I asked a question Sylvia"
"Nothing," I drawled.
He made a hmm sound. Suddenly the carriage budge again, I gasped when he held my waist tightly and firm so that I wouldn’t fall.
A deep shiver struck my body, his hands were so cold, why was it always so cold?
I was still trapped in this position, our faces also touching, no space between us at all, my heart slamming in loud thuds, despite his cold body, I was feeling so hot right now, I could only hope we get there on time, the sooner I get off this position no matter how tempting it was.
