His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 244

Frank held Melanie's chin with force. "I'm indeed a player, but I'm not satisfied with just anyone! I want only the best,” he stressed as he moved closer, breathing down her neck.

At that moment, he was like a vampire craving blood, and it terrified Melanie as she shivered.

Thankfully, he had no fangs and did not try to bite her. Instead, he only placed his lips on her neck and gently bit her. "The scent that I love could only be found on perfumers like you!"

Melanie froze. She could feel him slowly pulling away and letting her go, yet she did not dare move or breathe, fearing him changing his mind seconds later. In other words, Frank was only interested in female perfumers, as they were the ones who would come in contact with different scents for an extended period. Their body odor would always carry a hint of floral or spice scent, which might cause discomfort to some, but others loved it.

'Does this mean that Frank was one of those?' Her mind was a mess, and she needed time to gather her thoughts. However, the timer went off. It was time!

Melanie quickly rushed to the lab counter and reached for the three test tubes. She was nervous and excited, but she hesitated to take the tubes because she was afraid it would fail.

"Why are you hesitant? Just grab it!” Frank reached out, passed her hand, and took the test tubes. He smelled each of them and decided on the one in the middle. "Okay, this one will do!"

He was so sure of himself that Melanie moved forward unconsciously to take a sniff of the product. It had a strong floral scent and was close to the smell she had in mind, but it was still not finished. They still needed to give it some time for the perfume to set.

Melanie felt reassured that this formula would succeed, as Frank seemed confident. Even though he was scary, Melanie never questioned his ability as a perfumer.

"Frank, if I win this year's perfume championship, I promise to thank you properly!" She vowed as she stared at the liquid inside the test tube. Melanie could not contain her excitement as she imagined she was holding onto the trophy instead of the test tube.

Frank's blue eyes darkened with desire as he hugged her from behind, his lower body pressed tightly against hers. "You're such a tease! Why are you promising me when you can't satisfy me now?"

His voice sounded devilish as his warm breath blew into the back of her ears. Melanie froze. "I-I already told you the reason. I’m not trying to leave you hanging. I'm just..."

"Hush!" He placed a finger against her lips. "You're willing to help me?"

Melanie hesitated for a second before promising, "Yes!"

"Then, there’s something you could do for me!" He laughed eerily.
