Elias looked at Maddison. He wasn't anticipating her to refuse him. After all, when did anyone dare to refuse Elias King?
Apparently, that time was now! And that person was Maddison! Elias grinned as he took a step closer to her. He slowly removed his unbuttoned shirt, dropping it to the ground.
Maddison was still looking in his eyes defiantly. She was so tempted to look down, to look at his well-toned abs but she refused to give up when she had the upper hand.
But she miscalculated.
She did not expect him to wrap his arm around her waist! It was skin-to-skin contact. There wasn't any fabric separating them. Elias pulled her in with one swift move, causing Maddison to press herself against his bare chest.
"Elias!" She gasped as she struggled in his embrace.
He silently traced his hand up, towards the buckle of her bra. As soon as his hand landed on it, she knew what he was about to do.
