Chapter 17 Reject Me

• “Maybe I should...” Xavier mumbled, his eyes searching mine for any sign of surrender. I closed my eyes, trying to block out the overwhelming desire that threatened to consume me.
• I can feel Xavier's breath on my face, his scent filling my senses, making it hard to resist his magnetic pull. But I still clenched my jaw, determined to stay strong.
• Even with my eyes closed, I can feel Xavier’s lips hovering dangerously close to mine, tempting me to give in to the undeniable chemistry between us. My heart raced as I fought the internal battle between logic and desire, unsure of which path to choose. I can feel as if any of us moved a mere inch; the tension between us would break and our lips would finally meet in a fiery kiss. The electricity in the air was palpable, making it difficult to ignore the intense connection we shared.
