Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Their gazes met in the murky glow of the bathroom.

And Jarrod saw the undisguised hatred in Nicole’s eyes.

The way she looked at him, it was as if she wanted to tear his flesh off his bones.

It was only then that Jarrod realized this was the real Nicole, no disguise or pretense.

Nicole’s loathing for Jarrod was as undiluted and resolute as it could be, an engulfing fire that left no space for uncertainty.

Jarrod’s smirk was like a beacon of detached amusement, illuminating his lips with a mix of charm and mischief.

“Well… Is that the kind of Look you give someone you want to kill?”

Nicole was past the point of mincing words.

It wasn’t like Jarrod didn’t know she hated him.

“What else could it be?” Nicole retorted coldly.

“Do you expect me to look at you affectionately as if I’m in love with you? I’m in love with the thought of you being six feet under.

”

Jarrod reached out and stroked her chin with his index finger.

He frowned slightly and said, “You are always defiant.

Tell me.

How would you like to be punished?”

Nicole brushed off his hand and sneered, “Do you think you can still intimidate me? I’d better die sooner than yield to a man like you.

”

“Really?” Jarrod replied, his voice taking on a darker hue.

He brought her hand to his lips, his eyes never leaving hers.

“Nicole, don’t provoke me.

You know the consequences,” he said softly, a hint of threat in his voice.

But Nicole didn’t show any signs of fear.

Instead, she got angrier and snapped, “What do you think you’re doing?”

“Quenching my thirst,” Jarrod replied bluntly.

He wasn’t after her assistance in bathing him.

Being a man with such fierce desires, years of abstinence were taking their toll.

He needed to quench his thirst, one way or another.

The water temperature in the bathtub was still high, but Jarrod’s body was even hotter.

It was like a furnace that threatened to consume them both.

Nicole was taken aback for a moment.

She didn’t expect him to say such a thing shamelessly.

She felt so disgusted that she wanted to throw up.

Jarrod held her hand even tighter and said in a hoarse and seductive voice, “Just stay still.

I won’t enter you.

”

The tension in the bathroom grew thicker.

Nicole was like a puppet, following Jarrod’s words.

Fortunately, he kept his promise and did not enter her.

A low growl broke out from his throat.

He was so overwhelmed by his desire that he couldn’t help biting her neck gently.

He ki*sed her hair and whispered softly, “Let’s not fight anymore.

You don’t have to love me back.

But please, allow me to love and cherish you.

Let’s give us a shot.

”

Nicole was utterly shocked.

How could Jarrod be so ridiculous? She was at a loss for words for a moment.

Jarrod thought she took in his words and added in a soothing tone, “Nicole, Listen to me.

I will love you the way you Loved me before.

Just give me a chance to show it to you.

We still have a long life ahead of us.

We can take it one step at a time.

”

With a gentleness that was unlike him, Jarrod made an earnest plea to Nicole.

Nicole couldn’t help but chuckle at his words.

Long life? One step at a time? Where on earth did Jarrod get the audacity to say these words? After trampling on her dignity, belittling her self-worth, and plotting to kill her family, why didn’t it seem easy for him to say these things? How dare he coax her like this!

Nicole’s silence led Jarrod to believe she was considering his words.

He didn’t hold her that tightly but embraced her from behind, inhaling her scent.

Jarrod dreaded the thought of losing Nicole.

Aware of her intent to harm him, he was still drawn to her irresistibly.

Jarrod was clueless about love.

Only in Nicole’s presence did he sense it, but he missed it.

He admitted his mistakes and the consequences, yet couldn’t bear to release Nicole.

He was ruthless.

Only death could hinder his persistence.

Nicole’s love wasn’t necessary for him.

His love for her was enough.
