Mechelle's POV
"I've told you, you're my woman, and of course, I won't allow any man to covet you." He whispered softly in my ear, a thoughtful smile deep in his eyes.
"Can I really trust you?" I asked in a low voice. Even I didn't expect to ask such a question. Was it because of that one embrace in the past? Or because he had saved me before?
I couldn't find the answer. Two voices kept arguing in my head. One said, trust him, he will definitely be good to you. Have you forgotten how many times he saved you? Have you forgotten that embrace on that night? The other said, don't trust him, men's words are not trustworthy, especially a man like him. He is clearly a devil... In the end, the first voice won with an overwhelming advantage. I told myself in my heart to trust him this time.
"Watch out!" Alexander Duncan shouted, and I woke up as if shocked by the sudden change, standing there dazed.
