I tried to stop every fiber in my bones, but I should have known by now that everything when it came to Ares King was like an unwanted magnet.
I released a shaky exhale, closing my eyes briefly as a newfound strength was found. Get a fucking grip.
I opened the car door to leave, unexpectedly, even for me.
"Catherine."
His voice stopped me.
"Ms. Lane." I corrected.
I could feel his gaze drilling a hole into my head, as if luring me to turn.
"When are you leaving Midnight?"
"I don't think that's any of your business..." I pinned him with a hard look.
We stayed like that again, eyes locked as if looking away was intolerable.
"You're right," he replied, breaking the hot silence.
Why the heck would he agree to that when he was the one intruding?
That's it! I have had enough of this Devil.
"One more thing, Mr. King."
"What, Ms. Lane?"
"Stop following me, or else I'll get a restraining order!" I stepped out of the car and slammed the door shut.
