THE AIR AROUND HER STARTS TO THICKEN and Aubrey gets uncomfortable, being close-up with Kai. She reaches her hands behind, trying to loosen his grip once again, "What the hell are you doing? Let me go."
Kai only wraps his hands tighter on her small waist. The action makes her gasp, feeling tingles go up her spine; she can't tell if it's from the cold or his touch. She dares not look up into his eyes so she just stares at his hands, focusing on loosening his grip.
