She was almost at the door when Nick blocked her path. He just could not simply let her go. "I can arrange for you to see Cassie. It is a one-time offer. All you have to do is have dinner with me."
Her reaction to his touch did not deter his intention. On the contrary, he felt more challenged to pursue her even more. The sting on his cheek only fueled the obsession he had with her. He had to own her again.
"You must be insane if you think that I will ever go out with you again." She moved a step back away from him, seeing his devilish smile. "Get out of my way." She demanded, ready to strike him again if given a chance.
She regretted her involvement with him. It was a lesson she would never forget. A man like him was not worth her tears and especially her love. Luckily, she had found a man a hundred times better than him.
