Chapter 87 Will you stay with me tonight

William’s jaw tensed. “So you thought you would take on two wolves yourself? What were you thinking, Doris!” “I didn’t have time to warn you about them ” “I don’t care if you don’t have time!” William shouted. Doris flinched. How could he be mad at her? She just saved him! How dare he even raise his voice! “I don’t regret what I did. It’s pointless to make me try.” Doris lifted her chin. Here, he was just a man. There was no crown on his head or authority behind his words. Inside she knew she would always be a maid, but she was not about to be talked down to for saving him. William stared at her for a second that turned to minutes. She refused to break eye contact, she would not back down this time. William took a step towards her but she stayed right where she was. He took another as if to test her. She gave him a look that almost dared him to come closer. She should have known that he was never one to turn down a challenge. William crossed the room in three long strides and gathered her up in his arms. She didn’t get a chance to gasp before his mouth was on hers. He kissed her as if he was angry and wanted her to know it. Doris felt like a rush had woken her up. She closed her eyes and kissed him back despite the waring that blared in her head. 2 He lifted her a bit off her feet and pressed her harder against him. She gripped the fabric at his shoulders and moaned against his mouth. William made a strangled sound in the back of his throat before he pressed her up against the wall.

His large hand gripped her thigh and hiked her legs up around his waist so he could kiss her better. She gasped as he held her up with one arm and forced her mouth back to his own with the other. Her mind turned dizzy with a confusing desire—what was she doing? The thought left her head the second he bit down on her lip. She suddenly wanted all of him at once-every piece of him as her own and she didn’t care what he did to her after A knock broke them apart like shattering glass. He set her down instantly and moved  several feet away from her as if he would rather be caught dead than be caught holding her like that. Doris stumbled a little and gripped the wall to right herself. Her vision grew blurry, she swallowed her shame and straightened her clothes. 1 What… what on earth had gotten into her? How could she allow him to kiss her like she was just another one of his lovers? Look what he had done Why didn’t she want him to stop? William caught his breath and went to open

Their judgements should have no weight on this village.” Enzo looked William over. “Did they hurt you?” William rolled his eyes to the ceiling. “No. Who’s to say they won’t try again? What if they go after Doris next?” “If they did they know what the consequences would be. They don’t want to be the next prey in our hunt.” 1 William didn’t look the least bit satisfied.
