Chapter 59

Malia looked up at Grant, her lips parted in shock. He was smiling at her, his eyes dark with lust. He had her held tightly against him, her body pressed up against his. And true to his words, she could feel him against her thigh.

"You're disgusting." She spat, her voice sounding shaky.

He pretended to pout, batting his lashes at her. "Darling, you're stuck with me."

"Let go of me!"

"Not until we have a conversation like a normal married couple."

She stared at him like he had grown an extra head.

"And how do you intend for that to happen?"

He raised a hand and cupped her face, his thumb brushing her lower lip. Malia shivered and wished she could pull away from him. 

"First off, I've taken care of your family and their big mouths. You have no idea how hurt I was when you lied to me, repeatedly." His voice dropped towards the end.

Malia decided there and then that she was done. Simply done. Her lips curled into a cruel smile.
