Love Unspoken

Alexander glanced at Quinn, his eyes flickering.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Her messy hair almost covered her face.

He found it kind of funny. "What are you doing?"

Quinn looked up, her clear eyes meeting his. After a pause, she muttered, "I... I'm scared to sleep alone." "Really?" Alexander sounded skeptical.

"Yes," Quinn replied.

They locked eyes for a long moment. Alexander's fingers brushed her lips. "All cleaned up?"

Quinn nodded stiffly.

Then, he leaned in and kissed her.

Quinn clutched his collar, closing her eyes. She knew what was coming.

So, she didn't resist.

His kiss was intense, making it hard for her to breathe. Her face blushed, and she felt dizzy.

She shivered as he tossed her towel away.

Before she could react, he pushed her onto the bed, pressing down on her.

His fingers trailed down, and his kisses moved from her lips to her neck.

Quinn gripped the bedsheet and whispered, "Where's Walter?"

The mood shattered, and Alexander stopped.

After a brief silence, he lifted his head and met her eyes.

"Finally said it?" he asked.

Quinn looked away, feeling futile.

She had forgotten how rational Alexander was. Even in bed, he wouldn't let lust cloud his judgment.

He had known her intentions from the start and just played along.

Quinn braced herself. "Is he still alive?"

Alexander sneered, turning her head to face him.

"For him, you sacrificed so much? Even using sex with me as a bargaining chip." His fingers lingered on her face, his tone calm. "You really are devoted." Quinn was taken aback.

She shot back, "You know our relationship, so why provoke me?"

Alexander's lips curled into a cold smile. "Of course I know. Your childhood sweetheart, the one you always wanted to marry. Too bad you ended up with me." Quinn tried to speak but was silenced by his fingertip on her lips.

Alexander stated coldly, "You want to say that if it weren't for me and Ulysses, you two would be happy now, right?"

Quinn stayed silent, closing her mouth.

It wasn't exactly what she wanted to say, but close enough.

Alexander claimed, "But he really is patient, hiding it so well. Even now, no signs."

Quinn's eyes widened, her heartbeat quickening with unease.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

Alexander replied, "Nothing much. Since you're so eager to please me for info about him, I'll give you a chance."

Quinn's eyes flickered in confusion, but before she could figure it out, he moved off her.

Quinn frowned. "What do you mean by interesting?"

He crossed his legs, nonchalant. "Think for yourself. Make me happy, and I'll tell you."

Quinn climbed off the bed, staring at him.

She couldn't think of anything.

So she asked, "Can you just tell me what you want me to do?"

Alexander's gaze made her scalp tingle as she sensed his intentions were indecent.

He bent down, opened a drawer, and took out a wooden box, tossing it onto the bed.

The box fell open, spilling various adult toys.

Quinn's pupils contracted in shock.

She recognized them. Alexander had used them to test if she could make a sound. After a few tries, he lost interest.

She understood he wanted her to use them to please him now.
