Sebastian:
She wanted me as much as I wanted her. She felt the same pull, and I could see it in her eyes. Then why was she pushing me away?
One minute, she used to enjoy my company, and the next minute, a haunted look used to appear in her eyes. While getting ready, I kept thinking of her.
When I came out of the dressing room, she was standing near the window, looking outside. I had this sudden urge to take her into my arms and kiss her senselessly.
I wanted to see her face. How did she look? Did she look like Aurora?
"Damn!" I muttered in frustration. Why couldn't I forget her?
Phoenix must have heard me, cursing under my breath, "Your Highness," She bowed her head, and that was annoying.
"Didn't I ask you not to bow to me?" She must have smiled behind the mask, her defiance aimed squarely at me.
I was still tucking my shirt into my pants, the tie loose and hanging around my neck.
