| couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
Edward lifted his gaze and sizedup, his eyes growing increasingly shadowed and unreadable.
That's when | realized-when I'd been lying on the couch earlier, my dress was so tight I'd unzipped the back just
to breathe. Now, sitting here, the zipper was still open, leaving half my back exposed.
| sucked in a breath, jumped to my feet, and frantically tried to zip it up.
But it was hopeless, and if | kept at it, I'd just end up looking ridiculous, so | gave up.
Edward watched me, seeing how flustered | was, then closed his eyes again and said coolly, “I saw you dancing
with Nathan earlier. | have to admit, you two make quite the pair.”
| gave an awkward laugh. “He’s not much of a dancer, so he askedto show him the ropes.”
“Enjoy being the teacher, do you?” Edward shot back, a hint of mockery in his voice.

head. “No, it's not like that. He was just so earnest about it, | couldn't turn him down.”
Edward's gaze lingered on me, then he said, “Everything you're wearing-Nathan gave it to you, right? He really
put his heart into it.”
| couldn’t shake the feeling there was something more behind Edward's words, but | just couldn't put my finger
on it.
“Why don’t you just go ahead and marry him, Victoria? Once you're married, I'll stop thinking about you and just
get on with my life.” Edward sat up, looking dead serious as he said it.

He picked up the glass of water, took a sip-it was pleasantly warm, easy to drink.
| felt like Edward was really puttingon the spot.
“Mr. Jennings, are you joking?” | said, my face turning serious. “Marriage is a big deal-it’s not something you can
just take lightly.”
“If you don’t get married, I'll always feel like I've still got a shot...” Edward said, his voice going husky as he
drank his water.
“Is your self-control really that bad, Mr. Jennings?” | teased him lightly.
That made him look right at me, eyes locked and intense. He set down his glass, stood up, and cover.
| was curled up in an armchair, and with him standing overlike that, the pressure was intense.
“My self-control isn’t good enough? You were the one who lost it last night,” Edward said, his voice suddenly
serious. Whenever he got like this, it always madenervous.
My face went hot, then cold. Last night, | really had lost my head.
“Mr. Jennings, it's getting late...” | said, pulling out my usual excuse.

But Edward didn’t even seem to hear me. He just loomed over me, his gaze locked on mine, intense and
unyielding.

“You in that dress.... | couldn't think straight all night. | swear, Victoria, you're drivingout of my mind. Do you
have any idea how torturous it is to feel this crazy for someone?”
His large hand cup, gently brushing against my ear, his fingers grazing my earlobe and tangling softly in my
hair.
The way he touchedsent a shiver down my spine-I couldn't help but tremble.
Honestly, | was just as far gone for him as he was for me..
Edward's breathing turned rough, and in the next instant, he leaned in and claimed my lips with his.

to his kiss, growing hotter and hotter.
| felt his fingers find the zipper at the back of my dress, slowly, teasingly tugging it down.
The faint sound of the zipper sliding open echoed through the silent living room, shredding what was left of my
sanity.
“No...” | breathed, reaching out to stop him.
But in the next moment, his hot, calloused hand closed gently over mine, his touch coaxing me, as if his
tenderness alone could melt my resistance.

“Edward...” | whispered his name, half lost in the moment, half still clinging to my senses.
Just as he was nuzzling into my curves, his phone suddenly rang.
He reached for it, clearly about to toss it aside, but at that exact moment, we both caught a glimpse of the
caller's non the screen.
He'd saved it as: Ryan.
