Eve Thompson's eyes widened in disbelief, staring at the face that was so close.
Her mind was blank.
The way he kissed her was fierce and brutal, his lips and teeth colliding with hers painfully. She wanted to say something, but as she opened her mouth slightly, something slipped in...
A strong, hormonal scent invaded her mouth as the dominant force of his kiss was akin to a wild beast sighting its prey. It seemed that he was about to devour her in the next instant.
Eve's body stiffened. It was as if all the air in her chest had been sucked away, causing her to forget how to breathe.
A large, warm hand forcefully held the back of her head, making escape impossible...
"Iris!"
Suddenly, a voice called her back to reality.
A seemingly endless period of time passed, feeling like an eternity yet merely a few seconds. With that female voice, Eve abruptly came to her senses and pushed him away with all her might.
The man stepped back involuntarily.
They finally separated.
