Kapitel 47: Chapter 47

The hot breath on my face, combined with the deep husky voice had me paralyzed and stunned for a second. I simply looked innocently at him, not understanding what he is saying. After a while, my face filled with instant confusion and realization. How would I know what Greg said? I don't understand that language.

"Shelly, I'm asking you something." he yelled in my face and stepped even closer. I noticed his nose flare as he stared down at me.

I involuntarily flinched in fear and my heart skipped a beat when his grasp tightened around my waist, pressing his hips into mine. His right hand reached up and held my chin to make me stare straight up into his eyes. I gulped once my eyes met his. Compared to his other hand on my waist, his slightly calloused fingers griped my jaw in a light hold. Why was Max like that was beyond my understanding.

"Uh, Max," I stopped to swallow the lump that formed before continuing but his hold around my waist tightened and I gasped in pain.
