Chapter 206
206 Adam looked up and saw a slender figure .
Celine had come .
His thin lips pressed into a line .
What are you doing here ? Who let you in ? Celine stepped into the living room , walking toward him .
Leo ! Adam called out .
Leo , wheres the person I asked you to arrange ? Why isnt she here yet ? .
No response .
No one answered him .
Celine also remained silent .
Adam tugged at the collar of his shirt , his expression darkening .
Get out ! Celines long lashes fluttered slightly .
Fine , Ill leave then.
She turned on her heels and began to walk away However , before she could take another step , a strong land grabbed her slender arm .
His voice was low and filled with restrained anger .
Celine ! Celine turned back , blinking up at him with a playful glint in her eyes .
What ? Adam pulled her closer .
His body was burning , his skin hot like molten lava .
The effects of the seductive scent had been tormenting him for hours , and sheer willpower was the only thing keeping him together .
His eyes were red , and his resolve crumbled .
Adam dipped his face into her hair and began to kiss her .
His large , heated hand slid beneath the hem of her shirt .
Celine shivered at his touch , her body instinctively recalling Youre trembling .
Dont tell me youve never been with a man before , Adam said , his voice mocking Celines gaze met his .
In the depths of his dark , bloodshot eyes , she saw something primal .
A rew , unguarded desire .
He looked at her like a man starved .
It was like he had stripped away every pretense and let his true self show .
Did he think Celines private lite was a mess and that she had slept with a lot of men ? Was that the reason he treated her this way ? Celine bit down on her lower lip and raised her hand to slap him .
However , this time , he caught her wrist in midair .
He shoved her onto the couch .
His body pressed down on hers , pinning her in place.
Enough with the slapping .
Try it again and see what happens .
Celine was the only person who had ever dared to slap him .
Let me go ! she demanded , squirming beneath him .
He released her wrist but immediately began unbuttoning her shirt Adam , stop .
I can help you , she blurted , her hand tumbling at her waist for the silver needle she always carried .
She was aiming at Adams acupuncture point However , Adamn wasnt someone who could be caught off guard .
He swatted the needle out of her hand in an instant .
What do you think youre doing ? The needle dropped on the carpet , and Celine was scrambling to retrieve the needle .
My needle ! From above , Adam watched her pick up the needle .
Her long , dark hair cascaded over her delicate arms .
Her profile was flawless , and her skin was smooth and glowing Adara gazed at her , his eyes studying ing her the way a man would look at a woman .
Every man had his preferences , but before meeting Celine , h quite define what his type was .
he couldnt Cerly had always been the apple of his eye , and everyone assumed he preferred women as striking as red roses .
He used to believe that himself until Celine appeared .
He had seen many beautiful women in his life , but none had over held his gaze like she did .
He pulled his belt from his waist in one swift motion , the sharp sound slicing through the silence .
With a single movement , he was on top of her again , his arms encircling her .
He pressed his body against Celines and whispered her name .
Her hand brushed against the silver needle , and just as her lingers closed around it , she felt the fabric of her shirt being pushed up , Celine froze .
Adamı , dont ! However , Adain was relentless .
He pulled her back onto the couch , his lips crashing against hers in a fiery kiss .
the struggled against him , but her protests were lost beneath its overwhelming presence .
In the chaos , a vase toppled to the floor , scattering drws jasjer and inspazines everywhere .
Then , that by lightning , Alans froze .
He stared at her , his expression one of shock and disbelief .
re still a virgin .
He thought this wasnt her first time He had never thought this was going to be her first time .
Celine litt denyta hardfan his shoulder , her teeth sinking des into his flesh as if she were trying to rip away a piece of him .
Adam felt the pain mud gripped her a has to force her away .
Celines gaze landed on the long scar across his felt palun , a scar he had earned while saving her life .
However , th rint eraungle for her to forget the things he had done before .
Celines eyes were filled with tears as she glared at him .
The hurt in her gaze cut deeper them any wound , hitting Adarns hard .
Im sorry .
I was wrong before , Adam apologized in a huuurse voice .
He was wrong before .
Very wrong .
She had never been with other men before .
Adam had been her first .
What he said before was mean and unacceptable .
Celine refused to accept his apology ; she refused to look at him .
Grabbing her small hand , Adam slapped it against his face , hard .
Celine was taken aback by the sudden action .
If once isnt enough , then twice , three times .
Im sorry ! He continued slapping himself , but Celine pulled her hand away .
Celines actions amused Adam .
He lowered his head , his lips brushing against hers again .
Celine , Do you … still like me ? he asked in a low and hoarse voice .
What about him ? Celine couldnt help but wonder if he had liked her too .
She recalled what Leo said as she looked at Adam.
Adam , what about … Adam kissed her softly .
What ? In the end , Celine chickened out .
She dared not ask the question .
Adam held her hand tightly ; his slender fingers slipped through the gaps of hers .
Give it to me , Linny , It was the first time he had ever called her that .
His voice was tender and magnetic Celines eyes fluttered open the next morning , and she found herself still in his arms .
They had fallen asleep on the couch , tangled together .
Adam was still asleep , his arms wrapped around Celines shoulder .
She shifted slightly , her body sore and aching from the night before .
They had crossed a line and became real husband and wife .
Celine glanced at Adams sleeping face and whispered the question that had been haunting her .
Adam , have you ever liked me ? Even just a little ?
