Chapter 25

• Zipporah could barely flex her fingers from how weak she felt, so her anger came unwanted as she could do nothing but jab an unbelievable look at the man spread seductively before her. The urge to climb him and slip her legs around his gripping thighs was at war with her brain which wanted to slap him silly till he understood that her say matters especially in decisions that affected her life.
• She shifted her behind away from his middle, setting a quick distance between them which Adam didn’t seem unpleased about. In fact he proceeded to rake his long legs off the bed and stretch them towards the door. She couldn’t believe him, he was about to walk out without a word. She tried to stand but her knees bucked her back to the bed.
• He stood at the door for a few seconds before a knock was heard and he opened to his butler. She rolled her eyes at herself, of course his magnificent hearing had heard whoever was coming before she did. She couldn’t hear what they were saying and Adam’s unresponsive expression didn’t help her at all. He only shook his head and muttered something before closing the door on a retreating Albert.
