Poe Vaughn didn’t move, but his muscles were tensing up, just like his eyes at this mont, changing.
Deep within, darkness was reawakening, sothing terrifying was coming back to life.
Ava Sterling finally opened her eyes after a while, realizing she wasn’t dead, she was perfectly fine.
She instinctively looked around and clearly saw the surroundings were real.
She breathed a sigh of relief, her whole body relaxing.
"That was close..."
She exhaled and went to pat her chest, only to find she was holding onto sothing...
Ava Sterling froze.
She didn’t dare move.
Because she could clearly feel what she was holding onto...
It was that man...
His body...
Instantly, all her senses beca extrely sensitive, she could clearly feel his muscles, hiding infinite power, as if he could crush her instantly.
Very frightening.
His body was hot, the heat rising gradually, like a raging fire spreading towards her, she felt entirely scorched...
Ava’s heart started racing again, breathing uneven, she swallowed hard.
She was scared, instinctively scared.
She wanted to escape imdiately.
This was her only thought at the mont.
Yet, while her mind thought so, she didn’t dare to move an inch, as if the slightest movent would be her end.
In this way, her body beca more rigid, and the surrounding atmosphere beca hotter...
Poe Vaughn’s eyes surged with dark shadows, just like the silent ripples in the swimming pool, seemingly ordinary but actually dangerous.
He opened his lips: "Get down."
The voice was deep and dark, as if it erged from an abyss, Ava trembled and imdiately said: "I... I’ll get down right away!"
She fumbled, struggling to get off from this man, but sohow as she was about to rise, she slipped and crashed back against him, even landing on his waist, at the sa ti, her mouth bumped into his Adam’s apple...
"..."
Silence, silence...
An overwhelming silence enveloped that mont, Ava literally stopped breathing...
Because she clearly felt the change beneath her, her face flushed rapidly.
A sudden density filled the darkness in Poe Vaughn’s eyes, so dense it was terrifying, swallowing all the light within.
He grabbed Ava’s waist, his voice hoarse: "Ava Sterling, you asked for this."
In an instant, he clutched her waist, flipping over to pin her beneath him, Ava had no ti to react as the world spun, her long dress being torn off, his body covering hers, a terrifying heat wave engulfed her...
Night deepened, and silence followed.
The city’s lights quieted down, tinged with serenity, everything was sinking into slumber.
In the room, the air was scorching, the water in the swimming pool silently rippling, Ava’s fingers dug into Poe Vaughn’s shoulder blades, her long hair perford a graceful dance in the water.
Ava felt intoxicated, she must be drunk.
No, to be precise, she might have been drugged.
Otherwise, how would she let herself do such things with this man, she couldn’t even refuse.
Her mind was in disarray, yet her body was honest, she didn’t even know what she was doing.
Just feeling that this night was extrely hot, extrely dreamlike, more unreal than that night...
At this mont, The Pearce Manor.
The lights in the manor had gone out, only the street lights outside remained lit.
The red carpet was still there, the festive lights were still up, every painstaking detail still in place, clearly testifying that a grand banquet had been held here.
A black Maybach was parked outside the manor, Jace Kingsley looked at the silent manor, picked up his phone, and dialed Ava Sterling’s number.
