On his way back to his room, Kenneth ran into Natasha. When the woman took note of his sullen look, she expressed her concern. “What's wrong?”
“Nothing,” Kenneth replied before walking away in a huff. His reaction was no different from an overt display of anger.
Natasha raised a curious brow. Kenneth has been clinging to me for the past few days, so what's with this sudden change in mood?
Puzzled, she went after him. “Are you angry?”
“No,” he replied flatly.
Natasha pondered momentarily before nodding. “Fine.” Pretending to believe him, she turned to leave without questioning him further.
However, Kenneth furrowed his brows at her response and reached out abruptly to grab her.
Turning around to be greeted by the scowl on his face, Natasha asked with a frown, “What's wrong? Is there something else?”
Kenneth was filled with exasperation just by looking at her.
Suddenly, he pulled her back and pinned her against the wall.
As an innocent look glistened in her eyes, she stared at him. “What's bugging you, Mr. Hamilton?”
“Is it so difficult to pacify me when you obviously know that I'm angry?” he questioned in a deep voice that was inexplicably enchanting.
“In that case, shouldn't you tell me what happened in the first place?” she remarked in a teasing tone while blinking at him.
Reciprocating her gaze, he felt his heart pounding furiously as the urge to devour her and make her his swelled within him. That way, no one else would be able to covet her anymore.
With a darkening gaze, Kenneth leaned in, his muscular body pressed against her tender figure. The sight of the woman in his arms caused his Adam's apple to bob up and down. “Nat, I'm tired of waiting!”
Amidst her bewilderment, he lowered his head for a passionate kiss.
When the surprised Natasha attempted to push him away, she felt him grabbing her hands and pinning them above her head.
“Mmm...” she moaned.
Holding onto her slender waist, he lifted her up to bring her body closer to him. As he allowed himself to be intoxicated by the sweetness of her lips, the frustration from earlier gradually dissipated.
It wasn't until a long while later that he finally released her.
With his forehead resting against hers, he stared at her body with turbulent emotions raging in his eyes.
As for Natasha, she clung to his chest, gasping desperately for air.
“Nat, can I?” he asked.
“I...” Natasha gave him a hesitant look. “Now isn't appropriate...”
Without another word, she continued fixing her gaze on him.
It took Kenneth a second before it dawned upon him what she meant. Subsequently, a sense of resignation flashed across his lust-filled eyes.
“I'm sorry,” Natasha apologized.
Left without a choice, he held her tightly in his arms. With his chin resting on the top of her head, he nuzzled her gently as if he couldn't wait to absorb her into his own body.
All she did was nestle in his embrace.
A while later, he finally spoke. “Nat, don't you have anything to say to me?”
She shook her head.
No.
He frowned at her. “Don't you want to know why I was angry?”
At the mention of the topic, Natasha raised her gaze and rested her chin against his chest. After pondering momentarily, she nodded. “I do.”
“In that case, why didn't you ask?” Kenneth inquired with a strange glint in his eyes.
“What's bothering you then?”
He simply stared at her. If it weren't for the fact that he knew her temperament well, her response would have driven him up the wall.
