A Bird in the Cage

Chapter 20 Did You Miss Me?

The warning was effective. Catherine's arms and body were visibly relaxed.

"Good girl," Ryan snorted proudly.

His breathing was rapid, causing her to tremble involuntarily by his hot breaths. Her instinctive reaction to his touches disgusted her. Once again, she turned away, trying to escape from his kisses. Seeing that, Ryan forcefully pinned her down, not giving her a chance to avoid his kisses.

He wanted to melt and soften her until she willingly invited him to taste her. In response, she bit her lips, not yielding to him, but no longer resisting.

She was no longer as passionate as before. Before she attended his wedding, he vividly remembered how she had respond enthusiastically every time he stroked her like this. For some reason, he still wanted her to be the sweet and obedient young lady who had never resisted him.

Lowering his voice, Ryan whispered, "Did you miss

me?"

A simple sentence contained a deep affection. Catherine thought that she must have misheard him. He wasn't the type of man that had a soft heart.

He was like a excellent actor who performed passionately in front of people. That was why Jas loved him deeply, and that was also why she had thought that he might also have feelings for herself. The corners of her lips curled up as she mocked

him softly, "Do you think I'll miss a hypocrite? I'm not so pathetic, so stop asking me stupid questions."

Ryan's body stiffened, and then he chuckled.

"You look like you hate me. Is this because of Jas?"

"What do you think?" she rebutted coldly. She felt extremely disgusted when he heard him calling her best friend Jas'.

"Jas is happy and satisfied with her life. I didn't make her suffer, so you should really stop hating me."

"Is that so? If she knows that you're having an affair with her best friend, will she still be happy? She'll be heartbroken to death!" Catherine wasn't as calm and collected as Ryan. When she poured the words out loud, she was roaring in anger.

"Will you let her know about our relationship?" He was eerily calm when he questioned her with a smile.

"Of course not."

"Isn't that enough? As long as the both of us keep it a secret, she'll always be happy."

"Can't she feel it? Won't she be disappointed and sad when you come back ten days early while you're on a honeymoon? Jas is a sensitive person. Won't she doubt you?"

"Don't get so worked up, baby. You don't have to think so much. Just tell me what you want."

"Don't come to me again... Umph..." He had been staring at her chattery little lips the whole time, and before she could finish speaking, he interrupted her with a kiss.

He had missed the sweetness of her lips for the past few days, so when he began sealing her lips with his own, he could no longer control himself.

Like a hungry wolf, Ryan was dealing fiercely with his prey. He didn't allow her to resist nor give her a chance to breathe.

Her body inevitably reacted due to the short period of separation from him, but mentally, she resented him even more.

"Baby, just relax," he whispered in her ear, trying to draw her into lust.

"Don't call me that. It's disgusting. Just fuck me if you want. Stop lurking around like a cat trying to catch mice. It's annoying!" Catherine said coldly while turning away so that his hot breath wouldn't land directly on her face.

"It won't be fun if I came straight at you. I just want

to watch your complicated expressions before fucking you."

Furrowing her brows, she resisted him through gritted teeth.

She hated him to death! How she wished there was a knife so she could stab this evil b*st*rd to death.

However, she knew that verbally attacking him was way more effective than using a knife.

Sure enough, his face sank, brows furrowed, and his fists clenched tightly.

If she were a man, he would have punched her right in the face. This d*mned woman loved to challenge his limits, but he was going to make her succumb to him.
