Anna quickly struggled with both hands.
"No, no, no!"
"A woman always means 'yes' when they say no!"
"Nonsense! Stay away from me!" Anna covered her mouth tightly.
Liam batted away her tiny hands and inched closer and closer to her. His handsome face magnified before her eyes.
"Pervert! You damn pervert... Y-y-you..."
Before Anna could finish, his forceful and overbearing kiss landed on her lips again. That was her punishment for angering him.
His erect sword pressed against her scabbard under the blanket. His heavy breaths made Anna's face redden and her heart thump.
Flustered, she closed her eyes and heard Liam's cold voice sounding beside her ear.
"Little lady, what are you getting excited for?"
Anna quivered, snapping out of her daze. She scrambled backward but lost her balance and fell off the bed. She yelped as she fell.
Liam reached out his long arms. He scooped her up from the floor and pulled her straight into his
embrace.
The perfect contours of his face appeared right before her eyes. He gazed at her with an expression resembling a smile. His voice was hoarse and suggestive.
"If you want it, just tell me. I'll give it to you."
Anna felt how big he was down there. She panicked and shook her head vigorously as if it was a rattle. Both her hands clutched tightly onto the blanket.
"No, no..." Her voice was low and soft. She sounded as i f she was begging for mercy.
"Huh? I haven't even gone in and you’re already begging for mercy? Or perhaps... you'd like me to make you beg for mercy?!”
Liam’s handsome face drew closer to hers. The fine and prickly hair on his forehead brushed against her face, sending jolts through her nerves, making her feel numb all over.
Her body tensed up. She did not dare to move an inch.
That pompous man was someone who dared to say and do whatever he wanted. He would not let her go just because they were in a hospital.
Liam watched as she trembled in fear. He chuckled and landed a gentle kiss on her clear forehead. Then, h e turned over and got off the bed.
He looked down at his groin and put on a helpless smile. If it were not for the little lady’s need for rest due to her healing eyes, he would never have restrained himself. He would have swallowed her whole!
Anna stared at him confusedly.
In her little head, she wondered, ‘He must be in agony right now. How is he enduring it? What a miracle!’
Liam scoffed. "What? Do you want it?"
Anna quickly turned her gaze away from his crotch. Her face instantly turned ruby red.
Liam smiled. He had enough of toying with her. “Did you seriously think I'll do something to you?"
"Alright, spill it," Liam said in a low tone.
Anna staggered. She inquired curiously, "Spill what?"
"Tell me when did you regain your vision. And why did you pretend you still couldn't see?" Liam guessed that Anna had regained her vision long ago; either that or her injury was not very severe from the beginning.
Anna grew silent. She did not know how to go about answering his questions.
Was she supposed to tell him that her sister f*cking around with his nephew? Was she supposed to tell him that her own sister had plotted to wound her eyes and she was merely pretending to fall for her scheme t o get back at her own sister?
There was no guarantee that Liam would believe her. More importantly, it would be humiliating to spill such ugly secrets about her family!
Besides, the only person she could rely on was herself. She did not wish to drag Liam into all this.
Liam did not press her for an answer either. He waited patiently for her reply.
"I realized I could see when you tore away my bandages."
"Then you should be thanking me."
Anna rolled her eyes. "As for why I pretended I couldn't see... It's because..."
"Because what?"
