The moment Nikolai stepped forward with an arrogant tone, Selene's brows twitched before sinking her teeth into her squishy lip. Her eyes narrowed as she snapped her fingers, creating several blood spears above her head.
"Now is not the time to be a smart ass, Nikolai."
Selene's voice sounded distorted, her pupils shrinking before she stepped forward.
"I love you, my arrogant ice queen. But we both know for me… you burn hotter than the sun.'
The corner of Nikolai's lips curled upward, and his eyes glowed as he pushed off the ground, his muscular right leg bulging.
With every powerful step, he closed the distance between them.
Before Selene could speak, Nikolai grabbed her by her chin, tilting it up roughly. "After all, you're the prettiest when you smile."
Selene's pupils dilated, her hands moved to swat him away, yet she didn't put force into it.
"You-" Selene hissed, but paused in mid-sentence.
