"Say no to this engagement now!" He growled, pulling her by her waist. Her soft body crashed with hard one. Making her breath uneven. She tried to avoid his strong gaze. That was piercing her soul. 
"Why would I?" She questioned back confidently. Triggering his feelings. His wants. His desires. Without any second thought he crashed his lips on hers. Feeling her adopted uncles lips on hers, she shivered at the thought. Their forbidden desires would lead them to problems.
