Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 48 Bitten By A Dog

| was really scared to see Dominic behaving like that.

He was like an enraged lion when a menacing glare flashed across his eyes.

“Dominic, let go of me! Let's calm down and talk things over... Stop... “

“Talk things over?” At my words, he burst out laughing. “You have already made things clear. We only have to

put your words into action now!”

“You... You a*shole! Dominic, don’t makehate you... Dominic... “

All my curses and cries were buried by his forceful kiss.

| couldn’t break free from him due to his tight grip.

Dominic let out a half-suppressed laugh before scowling, “Aren't you a married woman? Are you still trying to

remain chaste?”

He still didn’t forget to take a dig atat this timing. This fool was truly out of his mind.

“It’s none of your business! Letgo now! You should know that this is illegal!”

“It’s only illegal when it’s without consent from both parties. But, you... Maybe you will begfor it later. Who

knows?”

“Dream on! Why would | do that?” | scoffed. I'm not that desperate for a man’s touch!

At that, Dominic smirked and pressed his lips against mine again.

Soon after, | heard a weird sound coming from my mouth. | immediately bit my lip tight.

“See? Your body is reacting to my kiss.” Feeling smug, he put on a sly smile.

| remained silent. | did not dare speak, too afraid that | would make that sound again if | opened my mouth.

At that moment, | mustered my strength up and pushed Dominic away. Then, | hurriedly scrambled towards the

door.

| had only taken a few steps before he grabbed my hand and pinneddown. He madeface down on the

bed.

He then leaned over and whispered, “You have nowhere to run. This is only the beginning.”

“We can’t do this... Don’t... Ah!” | lifted my head up and let out a moan.

Although | was married, | wasn’t really good in bed.

All of a sudden, I lost my power to think rationally. My body was reacting to the sensations all on its own.

Suddenly, | was reminded of my first twith Dominic. Back then, he was extremely cautious. He had paid so

much attention to my feelings our first ttogether.

Things were different now. He didn’t care if he was touchingagainst my will — he didn’t care about my

feelings at all.

Dominic, why did you beclike this? Dominic...

Those memories in my mind were soon being eroded.

At that moment, he halted all his movements.

| didn’t want to look at him. My cheeks were burning up. Hence, | turned my face to the other side.

“Why are you so shy? It’s not your first time. Liliana, you should take a look at both of us. Do you still think it's

not consensual?”

His voice was deep and raspy, but strangely, it aroused me. How seductive!

| wanted to say something, but an embarrassing moan cout of my mouth automatically before words could

cout.

Dominic instantly smiled. “Be a good girl. Just enjoy the moment.”

And finally, the session of intimacy cto an end.

| pulled the blanket around my body to cover myself up. Meanwhile, Dominic was already putting on his clothes.

“We...” | parted my lips, but | didn’t know how to express my thoughts.

The man turned and walked towardsupon hearing my voice. He reached forward to wrapin his arms.

“What? Don’t getwrong. We're all adults who can be physically intimate with one another. It’s no big deal.”

| lowered my head. “That's right. | was afraid that you might have misunderstood.”

| tried my best to sound indifferent. However, | instinctively gripped the bed sheets tightly.

Suddenly, Dominic held my chin and lifted my head up.

Against my will, tears started rolling down from the corner of my eyes.

He was stunned to seecry, and he kept silent, staying still for quite a long time.

| didn’t know why | couldn't stop my tears from falling down.

After being in a daze for a long while, Dominic released his grip on me. | fell onto the bed with momentum.

“Liliana, stop crying. Do you think | am still the sperson | was before?”

It wasn’t the same. Everything had changed. It wouldn't bother Dominic if he sawcrying.

| wiped the tears off my face before asking, “Are you done talking? Could you please leave?”

“Why? Are you mad atbecause | am not gullible anymore? | wasn’t born yesterday. Actually, you don’t have

to be so upset. We were getting along quite well even though we have no feelings for each other. Isn't that the

truth? You kept wailing and refusing me, but your body is way more honest than your heart. What's the point of

telling those terrible lies? | could easily see through you.”

After finishing his words, he slammed the door and left.

| lay on the bed like a marionette with broken strings. | buried my face in the pillow. Tears started welling up in

my eyes, and | let them stream down, watching silently as they slowly disappeared in the cotton pillowcase.

After lying there for a long time, | endured the pain and struggled to get up. | grabbed a fresh set of clothes and

stepped into the bathroom.

After finishing my shower, | squeezed all my stuff into the luggage. Then, | carried my laptop withand left

Dominic's house.

| didn’t know what the twas, but it was pitch black outside. | wished to hail a taxi, but not a soul was in sight.

Despite that, | still had to leave. It madesick for staying there a second longer.

| dragged my luggage and kept walking all the way to the main road. Finally, | managed to hail a taxi.

| had moved into Dominic's house right after leaving Julius. As | made my way into the taxi, | cto the

realization that there was nowhere forto go.

Since there was no other option, | gave the taxi driver Shannon’s house address.

When | arrived at my destination, the woman was surprised to see me. “Liliana, you... What happened to you?”
