Chapter 253: I want to worship you, Elliana
ƒreewebηoveℓ.com "You are awake, Princess,"
That’s the first thing she heard as soon as Elliana opened her eyes, licking her slightly chapped lips to wet them as she gulped her saliva to soothe her dry throat.
She turned her body slightly towards the source of the voice. The room was completely dark. The only source of light was from outside the balcony, which was also masked because of the curtains. Just like how the beauty of her husband was masked behind this black cover that he wears over his face.
She blinked twice, nodding her head softly as she tried to decipher what was going inside Mr. Marino’s head through his cold facade and eyes.
Even in this darkness, his eyes were glowing hazel, giving him a predatory look that she wanted to run far away from and touch at the same time.
He was looking at her like he just found out something about her that she had intended to protect all her life, and the slight predicament, made her heart thump in her chest.
"Were you waiting?" Elliana finally managed to say after a drawn-out silence which was making her anxious.
"Uhuh, I was," He said, leaning back in his seat, making Elliana’s throat dry even more as her eyes trailed down his well-sculpted body that looked nothing less than those hot and extremely sexy dominating fictional characters from the comics that Melony keeps in her bag to read in her free time.
But more than that, he looked dangerous. So dangerous, so blazing with an unknown fire that it felt even touching him would light her.
"Is it dinner time already? I should get off the bed now," Elliana tried again, wanting for him to say just something that would hint to her on what he was trying to do or say, or what he was thinking.
However, luck wasn’t on her side.
