''What do you think about us?" She asked.
''You are mine.''
Ella fell speechless. She felt like this conversation would not go anywhere meaningful yet she could not hold herself back from responding, ''I am my own person, not an object. I am a human.''
"My person. My human.''
Ella: "_" Slap me! No, just slap me!
I was in the wrong for broaching this topic further in the first place! What did I expect from Adrian King?
"That's not how it should be…'' Ella trailed off mid-sentence.
She felt a warmth against her neck as Adrian pulled her in and hugged her tightly, nuzzling his chin in the crook of her neck.
Ella's body turned soft in his arms.
She was shocked.
This man… He…
Was he seducing her on purpose to distract her?
Almost instantly, she denied this possibility.
There is no way Adrian King would resort to such schemes to deal with her. Powerful as he is, he would just drop his verdict and get her locked here forever.
