Bedmates Soulmates
CHAPTER 403

She said goodnight to the housekeeper and changed her shoes.

Liam was serious about her?

Charles must be joking.

What did Liam see in her?

She was not as tall as Glana and-though she hated admitting this, even to herself-not as sexy as Kayleigh.

No, no.

Kira shook her head.

Charles worked for Liam

young master.

He was just trying to mess with her mind.

It was flattering to know someone bloed her.

Everyone liked to know they were desirable.

But Kira was not conceited.

She wouldn't delude herself into thinking Liam's motive was pure,

The man was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Kira knew she wasn't smart enough to outwit a man like that.

It was best if she just kept her distance,

Kira glanced at the big cuckoo clock in the living room,

It was twenty minutes past eleven now,

She had work tomorrow

She headed upstairs and entered the master bedroom.

It was dark

Was Austyn asleep?

Kira groped along the wall for the light switch.

A warm body suddenly pressed onto her back

She smelled nicotine and alcohol.

"Austyn?

Young Master Liam is Serious About You

The man didn't reply.

He spun her around, pushed her against the wall and kissed her on the mouth.

Kira struggled to catch her breath.

Why was he being so...horny?

'Wait!' she said when he finally let go of her lips and started attacking her earlobe. 'I haven't showered yet..."

Austyn didn't answer and just carried on kissing her.

Kira rolled her eyes.

Couldn't the self-styled germaphobe taste the sweat on her skin?

She'd walked the last km home.

When he still didn't reply, Kira started to sense something was off.

He was kissing her harder, with an intensity that was almost punishing.

She confirmed her suspicion when he bit her earlobe-the man was angry.

When he got mad, he bit.

Kira wondered who got his goat this time.

'Hey!' Kira protested when he bit her other earlobe. 'Austyn!'

He clamped both hands on her waist, hoisted her off her feet and carried her to the king-size bed. Kira was tossed onto the sheets. Special Halloween Treat: More Coins, More Thrills!

She Spent Five Hours With Cane

tils face hovered above hers.

'What's wrong with you?' she complained.

Austyn didn't hear her.

He ripped off the buttons on her blouse and yanked down the zipper of her jeans.

He entered her without foreplay.

Kira was so shocked, she forgot to struggle.

Austyn paused when he saw her face contorted with pain.

Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead onto her face.

He waited for her to adjust, for her body to be ready, and then he pounded her without mercy.

He was rougher tonight than all the previous times.

Kira looked up and stared into the vold that was his o

She bit back a moan

An hour later, he finally stopped.

Kira lay on her back.

She couldn't move a muscle.

seyes,

Austyn got up, walked to the window and lit a cigarette.

The room was shrouded in darkness.

The curtains were drawn.

The only source of light was the glowing cigarette tip.

'Did you like it?' Austyn asked, his voice hoarse. 'Was that good for you?"

Kira grabbed the headboard for support and slowly sat up.

She covered herself with the quilt.

Her clothes lay on the floor, torn to shreds.

Austyn flicked on the light

Kira stared at him, shocked.

Austyn's hair was tousled.

His suit jacket was open, revealing a crumpled shirt.

He had not taken off his clothes earlier.

His

eyes were bloodshot,

It was a scary sight to behold

'I went to the hospital,' he said. 'You weren't there, but Dr Morrison was. Guess what he told me.'

The h

The hospital....

Kira's eyes widened.

Could Austyn have seen Gideon there?

She wanted to ask, but was attaid to hear the answer.

I came home. Sure enough, you weren't here. I sat on the sofa for five hours. I went through two packs of cigarettes. All I could thin about was, what were you doing in those five hours? What were you doing with...him." Kira opened her mouth. "..."

"Tell me, what were you doing with Liam Cane?"

Her head snapped up. "Liam?"

Austyn was talking about Liam?

Dr Morrison saw Cane carry you away in his arms. Do you want to deny it?"

'I... Kira fumbled for words. I'm not denying it. Yes, I was with him, but-

'What did I tell you?' Austyn s stared down at her. 'Did I not tell you to stay away from him? Did you get a sudden case of amnesia? Or did you turn a deaf ear to everything I said?"

Now Kira knew who had gotten his goat.

If this were any other time, she would have felt offended by his accusatory tone..

But today, a guilty conscience held her back.

Not guilt over having done anything with Liam-she hadn't.

But she had seen Gideon today, and the things he did...

And then she somehow ended up in Liam's house.

Austyn's anger was justified.

Kira hung her bead. 'I was wrong. I'm sorry. I won't do it again."

Austyn strode over to the bed and lifted her chin with two fingers, forcing her to look at him. 'Did you treat my warning as a joke?"

Kira shook her head.
