"Are you trying to tell me that you are not going to agree to my proposition of going back with me to the stronghold, and marrying me?" Alicia took a deep breath and asked.
She didn't like the feeling of what Jack was implying. Additionally, from his words, it was obvious that he still possessed the love that he had for Celine.
But, that was just what she wanted. She wanted that love to be transferred from Celine, to her. She was beginning to wonder if she was supposed to eliminate Celine, so that, the love that Jack possessed would lack a target.
And in the end, since she was the only one that would be caring about him, then, he would have no choice but to direct that love towards her.
Jack got to his feet, and approached Alicia. His face was so close to her that she smelled his masculine scent. She felt her heart racing, and she really wanted to pounce on him and kiss him, but, she managed to hold herself back.
