Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1329

Every time they clashed, he seemed physically stronger. Trapped beneath him, she had absolutely zero chance of winning.

Damn it all.

It wasn't until her jaw throbbed with a dull ache that Cassius finally tore his lips away.

Her mouth was thoroughly swollen and bruised red, contrasting deeply with her furious, blazing eyes and flushed cheeks. In his eyes, she had never looked more intoxicatingly beautiful.

"You're a cheating bastard spanning two different women! Aren't you worried you'll snap something?"

She gritted her teeth viciously. Having finally tasted her again, his insatiable thirst was temporarily quenched, and his expression had drastically softened.

Raising a brow, he replied with heavy implication,

"It does ache. So stop pushing me away."

She was acutely aware of his physical arousal pressing against her. Internally, she wished the bastard would suffer.

However, she truly didn't dare to provoke him any further.

She yanked her head to the side, fixing her gaze on the leather upholstery, refusing to look at him for another second.

Cassius slowly steadied his breathing. For a long moment, the only sound in the confined space was the heavy, rhythmic inhale and exhale from both of them.

To his ears, the mingled sound of their panting carried an incredibly intimate, familiar tension.

Looking at her delicate profile, her messy hair partially hiding her flushed skin and reddened ear tips, his harsh demeanor completely melted away. He spoke in a rough, gravelly tone.

"There is absolutely nothing going on between me and Zoey. We are not together."

She offered zero reaction to his sudden, unsolicited explanation.

Frustrated by her silence, his brow furrowed again. He reached out and forcefully turned her face back, forcing her to meet his gaze.

"Say something!"

Only then did she speak, her voice dripping with ice.

"Whatever you're doing with Zoey is none of my business. You don't need to explain yourself to a former hookup."
