His other arm goes around my back and crushes my entire body to his hard chest. A rupture of current flows in the body and I gasp in shock because this is impossible. My heart beats rapidly. I already know who the person is. I try to push him but his hold tightens more. "You wanted the entire college to kiss you right?" He growls in my ear and all the tiny hairs on my skin stand in goosebumps. "Kevin" I tried to warn him but to my ears, it sounds like a breathless plea. "You know how I feel about you but for you, everything is a game" He bites my earlobe slightly hard, and as much as it hurts, it feels good. "Hey! Make it fast man. Others are waiting" Someone from the crowd shouts. Kevin fists my hair and tugs it. "Ahh" "Do you want them to kiss you?" He asks angrily and what a turn-on it is but I'm not a fool to rile him more. He can do some serious damage. "No"

Warning ⚠️ This book contains dark themes, mature and triggering content, i.e. description/talk of suicide, rape, porn, and mature language. ~^~^~^~ His lips cupped mine, and a swell of warmth unfurled in my heart. It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult
