How dare he?! Sorayah thought to herself, her heart beating faster than usual.
"Yo..you...What are you saying, Your Highness?" Sorayah finally asked, her voice barely above a whisper as she swallowed hard. A deep frown furrowed her brows, and with hesitant fingers, she reached up to touch Dimitri's forehead. "Are you feeling unwell? Is that why you're saying things like this? Are you cold, or feverish?"
Dimitri didn't respond. Instead, he abruptly pulled her closer again, his grip firm yet trembling. His lips crashed against hers, intense and searing, stealing the breath from her lungs. The kiss was wild, desperate and full of unspoken words. Sorayah's body betrayed her....though her mind screamed for her to pull awy, her lips responded, her heart racing violently in her chest.
And just like that....it ended.
