A flush of heat washed over Tiana. She snapped her head up. "I-I wasn't thinking that! Y-You… stop talking nonsense…"
The playful smile vanished from Leo Joyce's face. His expression was a little serious as he looked at Tiana, and his tone was somewhat low and husky. "But I am."
Tiana stared at Leo Joyce in astonishment.
'Be his woman? It was true that she liked Leo, but… but they weren't married yet…'
Seeing Tiana's dazed expression, Leo Joyce's lips curled into a smile. He leaned down and pressed a kiss to her red lips. "Silly girl."
'As long as Tiana didn't agree or wasn't willing, he would absolutely never lay a hand on her.'
'Although, just a moment ago, he did have the urge. He was desperate to make her his completely, to erase any thought she might have of leaving him, but he would never actually go through with it.'
'What he wanted was for her to give herself to him, wholeheartedly and willingly…'
