I swallowed hard, trying to steady my breathing. "Just dancing," I replied, attempting to sound casual, but my voice betrayed my anxiety.
His grip tightened even more around me. "Is that what you call it?" he asked, his tone laced with jealousy and frustration.
I opened my mouth to respond, but the words wouldn't come. The vigor of his gaze and the firmness of his hold left me speechless. The room seemed to fade away, leaving just the two of us in this charged moment.
"It seems like you're enjoying it too much," A growl rumbled through his chest making my spine tinglinh.
My breath hitched, and my body trembled with excitement and fear when his finger tightened around my fingers.
