The man's voice was deep and sensual, oozing an irresistible allure.
Serena Summers' fair, delicate cheeks couldn't help but blush faintly.
Her long, curly lashes blinked innocently, and then she shook her head. "Nope, your punishment period isn't over yet."
Adrian Holt paused, his eyes filled with stunned disbelief. "Serena, do you really have to be this cruel?"
The restlessness within him had long been stirred, and his entire body radiated heat. Even as he spoke, he was trying hard to restrain himself.
Hearing Serena's rejection felt like being doused with cold water; his whole body stiffened in the same position as before.
Ignoring his awkwardness, Serena continued nonchalantly, "I only said you don't have to kneel on the keyboard tonight. I didn't say I forgave you."
If she forgave him now, wouldn't that mean she lacked principles?
"Serena…"
"Honey… Can we resume the punishment tomorrow instead?"
