ALL she had in her mind to say to him was, "Do you even believe a word that comes out of your own mouth? Why do you think I would?"

Her nonchalance made Mitchel feel a dull pain in his heart. He had come here purposely to please her, but she didn't even notice his efforts, let alone appreciate them.

“I'm dead serious this time. As soon as she leaves, we can live happily just Like newlyweds."

Raegan's eyelashes quivered slightly.

She had heard this line numerous times before.

This wasn't the first time he had made this promise. And each time, he broke it and caused her more pain.

She was sick and tired of it. This man couldn't be trusted.

Oblivious to her thoughts, Mitchel lowered his head and gently kissed her eyes, but she turned away before he could go further.

He didn't force her. With his hand on her waist, he said softly, “Stay a Little longer with me."

Action spoke louder than words. He assumed all he had to do now was to walk the talk to show that he meant business.

Raegan refused, "No. Go sleep somewhere else."

He lowered his head, lightly nibbled on her earlobe, and whispered, “But I want to sleep with you, honey."

These ambiguous words made Raegan feel more trapped than she already was. She shot him a resentful glare.

“What?” Mitchel chuckled, raising a brow.

“Do you want to gobble me up so bad?

"In your dreams. Let me go!" Raegan tried to move, feeling uncomfortable in his embrace.

Mitchel suddenly let out a muffled grunt, followed by a low warning through clenched teeth.

“If you don't want to sleep with me, don't arouse me."

Raegan lay still right away, fearing what he would do if she continued moving.

Mitchel seemed genuinely tired. Within minutes, he was snoring softly beside her.
