章 70: Chapter 70: She Almost Lost Control

Edie stiffened, his dark eyes flashing to her face. Her heart is beating rapidly with excitement. His scent and heat, the warmth of his magic, the heavy sensations of being so close to him, she almost lost control.

"Well?" he said, his voice was so deep and cold.

Immediately her face was flushed with embarrassment. She looked away to avoid any contact with his eyes, "Don't get so close to me, I am getting hot." Stuart pinched her lower jaw and raised it gently.

"Why did you not want to be seen with me?"

He approached her so closely, and their proximity seemed too intimate. Edie lost the ability to think. His troubled gaze came back to her face, pacing from her eyes to her lips.

"I.....I"

"Edie" Someone was calling her name. She pushed him away immediately. She turned around and saw Rhoda Hayes staring at them with her big eyes.
