Chapter 61

• Dante walked back into the bedroom, his expression softening as he saw Aria standing by the glass window. However, when his gaze fell on the silk nightgown she was wearing, his expression darkened instantly. He strode towards her angrily, his face inches from hers. "I said NO CLOTHES IN THIS ROOM!" He growled angrily, his hands balling into fists at her sides. "Take it off." His voice was cold and commanding.
• He grabbed the strap of the nightgown instead of the collar, his fingers wrapping around it tightly as he pulled her closer. "This thing is not allowed in my bedroom," he hissed, his face red with anger. "Take it off right now before I rip it off myself."
• Aria flinched at his harsh words and rough grip on the nightgown strap. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes from the sudden fear and anger in his voice. She quickly tried to step back, but his hand tightened around the strap instead of letting go. "I said TAKE IT OFF."
