Chapter 472: The Truth
Her eyes darted upwards to look at his face and as she sensed a flicker of mischief in his eyes, she realized... she’d awakened the beast...Uh oh.. She should be scared but why did she feel... thrilled?
But as swiftly as the thrill came, so did the realization that she wasn’t supposed to be caught. With a swift and deliberate motion, she shut her eyes tight, and pretended to sleep.
Seb’s gaze lingered on Olivia, a playful smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. Was she really attempting to feign sleep? The sight of her pretending so foxily only fueled his desire further.
After all, he was not the one who had begun this. He’d been sleeping innocently enough when he’d felt her moving. She’d been doing that so carefully, so of course he played possum and let her move. How was he to know that she’d kiss him and then...
With a grin, he caressed her calves with his foot, tracing the arch of it before hooking his leg under hers and pulling her, so that her legs were now trapped between his. He heard her little, quickly suppressed squeak and his own grin widened. She tried to pull away from his, pushing at his chest, but she was well trapped.
He slowly slid his hand into her hair and with the other one, tugged at the neckline of her simple blouse, exposing her shoulder. "Are you still going to pretend to be asleep?"
She nodded and whispered," I an not pretending. I am asleep. I am exploring the dreamland."
"Really? Then you were ’molesting’ me in your sleep?"
Her eyes snapped open at that and she looked at him with accusation," How can you say that. I wasn’t doing anything of that kind! I was asleep and my lips happened to graze against your skin. If you’s slept with your shirt buttoned up, then this accident would not have happened!"
