“Luacs!”
Elena opened her eyes suddenly, and her body tried to spring up from the bed. However, there seemed to be something heavy on her body. The force was enough to push her back into the bed just as she wanted to get up.
It was a man’s arm. He had placed his arm on her body, and his palm had weighed down her chest area. She stirred, and his palm instinctively tightened in a grip motion.
“Argh!” Elena pushed him away in shock. The man frowned and stared down at her blushed little face. Then, his eyes traveled down to his hand, and he finally realized the object that he had groped. However, he did not withdraw his hand. Instead, he increased the pressure of his hand against her body.
“Eldest Young Master Williams, hand…”
“Whose name did you say just now?” Michael narrowed his eyes, and his big palm held her completely immobile.
Elena’s breath tattered as her body heaved. She put both her hands around his wrist to push him away, but he was too strong for her. He did not budge an inch.
“No…”
“Hmm?”
“I dreamed of Luacs… He was covered in blood when he tried to save me.”
She bit her lips and tried all her might to throw him off her body. Her face blushed, but her effort was in vain. His body sank even further, and she was wholly tucked under him, unable to escape.
The chill of his body and his icy gaze delivered his anger to her. His fiancée had called out another guy’s name when she was asleep in his arms! Elena could not explain to him that Luacs had been severely injured in her past life when he tried to save her. He was even labeled as the suspect who had tried to rape Ava. He also parried the attack that was meant for her the previous night.
Elena was flustered. The events in her past life had apparently diverted in her new one, but she was still afraid that something worse would happen. However, Michael did not comprehend that. The only information he captured was that his woman had slept with him on his bed, but she had another man in her thoughts!
“Are you thinking of marrying him because he had saved your life?”
“Eldest Young Master Williams, please be sensible about this. There is nothing between us…”
“It has not happened yet. It does not mean that it’s never going to happen!”
He was brooding. Which guy could accept the fact that their woman had called out another guy’s name while they were asleep by their side?
“Never!” Elena answered with a slightly guilty conscience.
The name ‘Luacs,’ that burst out of her lips, must have bruised the ego of a person as lofty as Eldest Young Master Williams. She did not mean it that way. However, it was typical for Eldest Young Master Williams not to believe her because he had never trusted her. It was still well within her expectations.
“Let me up.” Her expression darkened, and the warmth in her eyes dissipated gradually.
How dare she pull a long face in his arms! Was she the same with other men? Well, well, well!
Michael suddenly moved his hand. Before Elena could understand what had happened, she felt that the cold air as he tugged on the shoulder of her shirt.
“Eldest Young Master Williams, what are you doing?” She was frightened, and she reacted with a grip on her collar.
Just as she was about to raise her hands, Michael clasped and pinned them above her head. As she struggled, her tender body scrounged against his sturdy frame, and they were so close together!
“Michael…”
As she looked up, she noticed that the man’s face was less than a finger away. His breath was chilly and warm on her face! She quivered under the contradictory breath.
“I said that during the period of our agreement, I could give you freedom.”
“If that was the case, why do you restrict me again and again?”
“Did I ever say that you can have complete freedom?” Michael narrowed his eyes.
His palms squeezed slightly, and his fingers tightened. Elena immediately felt a slight tingling sensation on her wrists. He had such great strength! He had left a bright red mark on her wrists with just a casual pinch!
“Did I say that you can hook up with other men? Huh?”
Elena bit her lip and glared at him. “I didn’t hook up with any man…”
“So who was the woman who leaned on the shoulder of the boy called Luacs last night?”
There was a visible startled look in her eyes. How did he know that? So it was real; she did hear the noise of a car engine last night? Had Eldest Young Master Williams been observing her from a distance? Michael perceived the gleam of surprise in her eyes as a display of guilty conscience!
“Have you got nothing to say?” He lowered his head as he clasped her hands under his palms.
“What do you want me to say? I have told you before, we’re just friends!”
“Then, you should not see those people again!”
“Never!” She could agree with everything else that he wanted, but not that!
There had not been many people who treated her with kind sincerity. Her friends had been willing to give up their future and lives for her in her past life. She could never leave them!
Michael stared at her stubborn eyes with a gaze that was colder than ever. No one ever said ‘No’ so decisively in his presence.
“Since you have such a bad memory, I don’t mind reminding you whose woman you are now!”
No matter if it was merely on paper or it was real, she could only belong to Michael!
Unless he took the initiative to cancel the agreement to let go of her!
“Eldest Young Master Williams… argh!” He had suddenly flipped her body around. She tried to get up, but his large palm stopped her.
Michael had pulled the clothes on her body down to her waist. She panicked and tried to struggle with all her might. However, she could not break away from him.
“Eldest Young Master Williams, I didn’t… Luacs and I are just friends!”
The man behind her did not respond to that at all. His long fingers shuffled around at her waist.
Elena was frightened out of her wits, her nightdress…
His hot body covered hers, and the heat of his body threw her off her guard.
“Eldest Young Master Williams, I don’t have a relationship with Luacs… Please, don’t do this! No!”
Michael ignored her pleas. His eyes burned with so much anger that it was almost scarlet. The rage devoured everything like fire and ice. He was such a cold man himself, cold enough to freeze his blood. However, at that moment, he got so angry until his body temperature shot up so high that the woman underneath him tremored.
Finally, Elena realized that even if Eldest Young Master Williams seemed gentle on some rare occasions, it was only on the premise that no one messed with him. Once he felt that someone had violated his bottom line, he could instantly turn into a terrible Asura.
It was probably what had happened last night when he could ward off the gang members with just a machete. In his game, he was the master of everything; whereas Elena, she was just a poor doll. When she was well-behaved, Eldest Young Master Williams would shower her a little care. If she was disobedient, a terrible storm that was enough to destroy everything awaited her.
She bit her lip and clung to the sheets under her as she let the only piece of a garment that covered her shame be stripped. In his eyes, she was as fragile as the ants. He would never believe her explanations as he had never placed his trust in her. Resistance was not something he would consider at all!
She was powerless. No matter what he did to her, even if he killed her, she could not resist it. The man sank into her body, and his breathing labored. Elena closed her eyes and waited for the storm to happen.
Her trembling body was tense. She was scared; she was petrified.
Even though she knew that she could not resist him, she would rather suffer than to give in! Was it so difficult for her to leave the boy called Luacs?
