If she doesnât do anything today, sheâll feel guilty later on, and thatâs even more mental torture!
Realizing this. Elinor took a deep breath and said, âHold on! I can help you!â
Theo stopped in his tracks Just like a vampire, still with a shred of humanity, struggling with his primal instincts when faced with an enticing human, trying to control the urge to pounceâ¦
Theo squinted his eyes menacingly âWhy?â
Elinor stepped in front of him hesitated for a moment, then undid the belt on his bathrobe and said. This is an emergency, consider it a humanitarian act! Besides, youâre pretty handsome and have a great body, so helping you out isnât a loss for me! Letâs do it!â
Her words, all hitting his soft spots, were devoid of emotion, only fairness.
Theo, suppressing his excitement, stared at her and said. âIf it were any other man in this situation, would you also be so kind to help him?â
Elinor nodded âIf heâs a good person, I would!â
Theo was planning to let her off the hook, but hearing her firm answer, he felt angry instead.
So, heâs not special at all!
Would she do the same for other men?
Theo extended his arm, putting it around her waist as if to punish her, looking at her and saying, âAlright, since the kindâhearted Ms. Mendoza is so charitable, Iâll accept.â
Elinor had more to say, but a passionate kiss swiftly approached, silencing her!
Theo picked her up and threw her onto the bed, his strong body pressing down on her, his rough hand gently brushing away the hair on her face. âRegretting it yet?â
Elinor, dizzy from the kiss, closed her eyes, unwilling to confront him, and declared firmly, âNo regrets for doing a good deedâ
Theoâs eyes sparkled with a fiery light, and he laughed sarcastically, âGood, even if you regret it now. I wonât let you off. Kindâhearted Ms. Mendoza, no crying from now on!â
Elinor was in turmoil, she knew she was slowly getting caught up in it, but she attributed all her reactions to saving a lifeâ, ignoring any other emotions.
This way, her relationship with Theo will be easier to manage later, less complicated, and still just a partnership that can be ended at any time.
After a night of passion, By the time she woke up, the day was already bright.
Elinor stirred, feeling pain all over, as if sheâd been taken apart and put back together.
She was alone in bed. She found a bathrobe to put on and got out of bed.
She wanted to go to the bathroom but noticed the door to the room was slightly open and there were voices in the hall; it was Collin.
She went over to take a look.
âMr Blanchet, the kidnappers from yesterday have all been caught, but their leader vehemently denies knowing his men and even had a perfect alibi prepared. Thereâs no evidence of contact with his men in his communication tools; the police couldnât do anything and had to release him again.â
âFind that man, bring him to me.â
âUnderstoodâ
Theo turned around to push the door open. Seeing Elinor with sleep in her eyes standing at the door, he frowned slightly and asked, âAre you awake?â
