“But…”
I still wanted to argue, but Michael didn’t give me the opportunity to speak further. Before I could finish my sentence, he captured my lips, sealing my mouth tightly that I couldn’t even utter a single word.
Not only was his kiss wild and domineering, but it even seemed to be colored with a hint of fury.
I guess that’s to be expected. Any man will get up in arms upon hearing my words earlier, so it’s already a miracle that he managed to keep himself in check until now.
As he continued smooching me, he placed me on the bed.
All at once, my eyes widened as ire and annoyance swept over me.
Piqued, I wanted to push Michael off me. However, he was like a huge boulder weighing down on me without budging an inch, no matter how hard I tried to shove him away.
“You’d better be good and cooperate with me tonight. Otherwise, your struggles will only arouse me further,” Michael warned in a deep and mesmerizing voice.
Right then, his beguiling lips were brushing against my ear as he grasped both my wrists with a hand.
I initially wanted to continue struggling, but I immediately stopped upon hearing that. I knew that he definitely wasn’t joking with me, after all.
The moment I ceased struggling, a smug smile hovered over his lips.
“Are you done, Michael? I can’t take it anymore…”
With both hands against his chest, I looked at him with misery written all over my face.
“This is just the beginning. As I said, I’m going to show you my prowess tonight!”
As Michael spoke, he kept thrusting into me.
Hearing that, I was rendered speechless.
Jeez, he’s really holding a long grudge. I’ve clarified that it was someone else who said that, so why is he still piling all the blame on me? Ah, woe is me!
“I know you can get it up. I’ve never said otherwise…”
After this particular incident, I had learned a lesson—never tell a man that he couldn’t get it up, especially one with Michael’s temperament.
“That’s it? Are you well-pleased tonight?”
My remark didn’t satisfy Michael, and he stared at me with a wicked glint in his eyes.
Dumbstruck, I went silent.
Argh! Why must he ask me such a blunt question? How am I supposed to answer when it’s so mortifying?
Flushing, I averted my gaze. I really didn’t want to answer his question since it was simply too embarrassing.
“Silence means you’re not satisfied. In that case, I’ve got to work harder.”
A roguish smile played on his lips. While saying that, he continued moving in me. As pain battered me, my brows creased. I actually didn’t want to yield, but I could no longer stand his frenzy.
“Yes…”
In the end, I relented and gave him the reply he desired. After saying that, I looked away embarrassingly, not daring to look him in the eye anymore.
When Michael had finally gotten a satisfactory answer out of me, the corners of his mouth curved into a gratified arc.
Pinning his jet-black eyes on me, he languidly asked, “Are you sure you’re satisfied? If you’re not, I don’t mind keeping at it a while longer.”
He stared at me condescendingly with triumph shining in his eyes.
“N-No, it’s okay,” I promptly declined. “I’m satisfied.”
He had been keeping at it for a long time now, so I had long since been sore. If he were to continue, I truly couldn’t fathom how much longer he would torment me.
“In the case, I’ll take mercy on you tonight. But if you were to say that I can’t get it up again, I’m not going to let you off the hook so easily next time.”
At the sight of my beseeching expression, the smugness in his gaze grew all the more distinct. After all, any man would be proud of himself when a woman begged for mercy under him.
When Michael moved away from me, I heaved a long sigh of relief. Phew! This is truly a lesson to be remembered. Next time, I can’t ever say such a thing in front of him again, or he’ll truly finish me off!
I was exhausted after having spent such a long time between the sheets, so I promptly fell into a deep slumber in his arms. When I woke up again, it was already early the next morning.
Michael was all dressed for work, but I was still huddled under the covers in my birthday suit. I squinted at him with slightly swollen eyes even as the urge to continue sleeping seized me.
Good God, isn’t he the slightest bit tired after having done it for such a long time last night? Yet, he’s no different from usual. Is he really indestructible?
It took me great effort before I finally managed to sit up. After being tormented for what felt like an eternity last night, agony wracked my body that was now sore all over.
“Hurry up and get out of bed. I’ll give you a lift to the office,” Michael offered in an even voice as he turned around and cast me a glance.
“No, thanks. I’ll just take the subway since it’s still early,” I instinctively demurred, not wanting to be cooped in the same car with him.
I hadn’t forgotten the perfume on him or the lipstick stain on his shirt the night before. Hence, it was imperative that I keep a distance from him.
“What’s wrong with you in the past two days, Anna?”
Pausing in tying his necktie, he spun around and shot daggers at me in vexation.
