Chapter 1205
Zayden had Sadie cornered, knowing all there was to know.
Acold dread enveloped Sadie. She tightened her grip on the armrest, but the
shiver was unyielding, making her tremble from head to toe.
Zayden’s soft laugh broke through, and he leaned in, trying to comfort her.
“Don't worry too much; I've got it covered. I've sent someone to handle the
details.”
Sadie sat rigidly as he shifted closer, his voice taking on a gentle persuasion.
“Forget the past and be the Sadie I want by my side.
With me around, these Little ghosts won't haunt you.”
His words made it clear to her; she was ensnared in his web. The weight of what
he could disclose to Holden pressed on her, and she felt the walls closing in.
Her resolve weakening, she reached for Zayden, her voice barely above a
whisper.
“I've tried to do as you asked. Please, don't spill my secrets to Holden. I can't
lose what I've built. 'm begging you.”
Zayden brushed his fingers over her cheek, locking his gaze onto her.
“I promise. Just play by my rules. Haven't I kept your secrets safe till now?”
Relief washed over Sadie momentarily, but Zayden wasn’t done.
“But first, prove you're with me,” he said.
Sadie said, “I've done everything you asked. Isn't that proof?”
Zayden’s only response was a chuckle, taking another puff from his cigar and
letting the silence linger.
Sadie felt a tightening knot in her stomach, trying to read the enigma that was
Zayden.
As the minutes stretched, she recalled everything he had done so far, and,
mustering courage, decided to play her cards. With a sultry smile, she traced her
fingers up his arm, ending at his neck, pulling him closer with an inviting look.
Zayden was about to ask Sadie to bug Holden's study. Yet, he hadn't seen this
brazen move coming. Their faces were mere inches apart, and a heady mix of
cigar smoke and her intoxicating fragrance enveloped them.
Raising an eyebrow, Zayden pulled her even closer. Responding to his move,
Sadie softly grazed her lips near his.
Zayden hadn't planned for things to go this direction, but presented with such a
tempting situation, how could he say no?
Moreover, this would be a subtle slight to Holden.
Drawn into the allure of the moment, their restraint evaporated.
