Skylar's POV
I looked at Alec half surprised, half terrified. He put pressure on my hand leading to tighten the grip around his throat. My heart leaped faster. What the hell was he trying to do?
I held my breath. "What are you doing?" He was so close. One of his hands was still on my waist. Fuck.
"Oh, look at you, all nervous because of your husband." Salony mocked me in my mind.
"He is dangerous." I thought.
He stared into my eyes, studying me for a long moment. "You wanted to choke me."
His word choice really stirred thoughts in me I was embarrassed for. Choke him? Were we in a blue film right now?
"I told you… I was kidding." I cleared my throat, refused to let the thoughts have any effect on me.
I swallowed hard, trying to control the chaos inside me. Alec's gaze didn't waver, his hand still firmly gripping my waist. My fingers, still wrapped around his throat, felt every breath he took.
