Everyone has their own tastes.
For Si Tian, a man’s sexy Adam’s apple was an irresistible temptation.
“Miss Si, would you like to try someone else?”
After saying that, Zhou Si picked up his glass of red wine and took a sip.
Moonlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows, white as frost, bathing him and sharpening the silhouette of his profile.
As the wine slid down his throat, the man’s prominent, smoothly contoured Adam’s apple rolled slowly…
It was like watching everything in slow motion, a silent seduction.
There was no denying that with Zhou Si’s looks and physique, he could outshine every male star in the entertainment industry.
With such a tempting man right in front of her, Si Tian’s feet seemed nailed to the floor. She couldn’t move an inch.
If she really slept with Zhou Si, she wouldn’t exactly be losing out. She might even come out ahead…
But she couldn’t bring herself to take that step.
For an instant, when their eyes had met, she thought she’d glimpsed an intensely possessive hunger in the man’s eyes.
Extremely dangerous.
His pleasant expression now seemed more like a disguise.
A way to make her lower her guard.
Zhou Si seemed to have seen right through her. He bent down, set his glass on the table, and picked up the bottle of red wine, still more than half full.
Then he stood and strode toward her, carrying the bottle as he came against the light.
His broad shadow drew closer step by step, soon swallowing her small frame completely.
With it came an oppressive presence so powerful it made her uncomfortable.
Si Tian’s hand tightened involuntarily around the doorknob. Her fingertips turned stark white.
Zhou Si bent toward her, his thin lips close to her ear. With a soft chuckle, he said, “Miss Si, don’t be afraid. I’m not going to eat you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his dry, calloused palm covered the fair, delicate hand resting on the doorknob.
Si Tian stiffened. Before she could pull her hand away, his palm guided it to the prominent, sharply defined Adam’s apple in his throat.
An Adam’s apple looked sexy.
In reality, it was terribly vulnerable.
Just like that, Zhou Si laid his vital weakness completely bare in her hand.
Si Tian’s heart gave a faint tremor.
At the same time, something surged wildly through her nerve endings.
Her gaze fell on her own hand.
The man’s skin was a normal yellow-toned shade, while hers was cool and pale.
Her small, fair hand against his thick neck made for a striking visual contrast.
Noticing where she was looking, Zhou Si’s eyes darkened, and one corner of his mouth curled into a wicked smile.
“Care for some wine?”
At his words, Si Tian looked up and found herself caught in his deep, whirlpool-like eyes.
His dark pupils drew her in, bewitching her.
She felt her reason crumbling, bit by bit.
Two voices were fighting in her head. One told her to stay clearheaded.
The other urged her to hurry up and “get revenge”!
“Yes.”
The word came out before she could think.
Once spoken, words were like water poured out—impossible to take back.
Of course, Zhou Si wasn’t going to let her take it back, either.
He lifted the wine bottle and brought it to his own lips.
Si Tian stared, slightly surprised.
Wasn’t the wine for her?
As she wondered, the hand she had on the man’s neck suddenly turned cold.
Si Tian froze.
Red wine was spilling continuously from the corner of his mouth…
The dark red liquid ran along his sharply defined jawline and down his neck…
Her fingertips, hanging at her side, clenched the fabric of her clothes.
Help!
How was she supposed to withstand this visual feast?!
Zhou Si’s Adam’s apple kept rolling beneath her palm as the wine in his hand dwindled.
When the bottle was nearly empty, Si Tian parted her red lips, about to ask him something.
Then came a sharp, clear crash. The man casually smashed the wine bottle onto the floor.
Si Tian jumped.
But before the cry could escape her throat, his large hand clamped down hard on her chin.
The man’s handsome face suddenly loomed close.
His cool, thin lips pressed down on hers.
In an instant, the little sound in her mouth was swallowed…
