Hellbound With You novel Chapter 776

Chapter 776 - Never my thing

"You're lying!" Alicia called out his bluff, looking at him like she was more than certain that what he said was a lie. "You were a doctor, a powerful leader before you faked your death. Your previous fake jobs required a lot of talking too. So don't give me all that hogwash. Tell me. Is it because of –"

She could not finish her last line as his hand slipped behind her and cupped her head. As he pulled her head down, she had no choice but to fall forward with the weight he exerted on her. But she already knew what exactly he was going to do so she responded swiftly and moved both her hands up as well and quickly covered his mouth, causing her to end up kissing the back of her own palm.

His gaze was intense as he looked down at her. But Alicia did not let him to continue intimidating her. She pressed her lips tight together and stared back at him with a sharp gaze without removing her hands. Their faces were so close together it was almost as though they were trying to stick their foreheads to each other's.

"You should really stop doing these kinds of nonsense, Ezekiel. Your little threats would not work on me." She said huffily.

She felt his lips stretch beneath her palms, knowing from the movements that he had just smiled. And she had almost instinctively pulled her hands off his mouth.

But then, her eyes circled wide the next instant as he had moved his head forward and licked the centre of her palm. Her hand was already right beside his ear. She literally retracted her hands so fast it was as if something extremely hot had scalded her.

A devious smile flashed across his lips. "My little threats won't work because you actually don't mind me kissing you?"

"Y-you pervert!" she exclaimed, finally snapping back to reality.

She struggled to get him off her, but Ezekiel did not let her out of his grasp.

"Let go of me this instant! And stop playing word games with me! I'm not a fan of wordplays, Ezekiel! And I'm telling you again, I would rather –" She ranted on, hoping that her continuous complaints would annoy Ezekiel enough that he would let go of her in favour for some peace and quiet. _{freewёbnoνel.com}

"What? You would rather die than kiss me?" He continued her statement, his eyes sparkling in challenge as he stared at her, waiting for her response.
