Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 503

“It’s just a game. Are you really scared of this?”

Hearing the crowd’s teasing, Nancy didn’t want to appear weak. She lifted her chin defiantly and replied, “Who says I’m afraid? I’m just thinking about who to kiss, alright? How hard can that be?”

Nancy figured she would just pretend to kiss someone and trick the group. It wasn’t like she really had to go through with it.

“Woohoo! Nancy is so courageous. She’s not like the others who are so shy and hesitant!”

“Yeah! Let’s go, Nancy! We’re all waiting for a show.”

With the encouragement ringing in her ears, Nancy had no choice but to stand up and head toward the exit of the private room. She silently hoped she would run into a woman outside so she wouldn’t have to pretend to kiss a man for this dare.

“Nance.”

Just as Nancy Stepped out of the room, she spotted Jacob rushing toward her, and her

expression froze.

Jacob caught a whiff of the alcohol on her and frowned. “What are you doing, drinking so much?”

“Nancy, why are you just standing here? Don’t forget your dare to kiss the first man you meet! Hurry up!”

Inside the room, everyone was too drunk to recognize Jacob and continued urging Nancy on.

Hearing this, Jacob’s expression darkened further. If he hadn’t arrived in time, would Nancy have really gone through with kissing some random guy?

Seeing his displeased demeanor, Nancy blurted out, “He’s not good enough!”

Not good enough? Jacob’s eyes narrowed and he smirked dangerously. “I’m not good enough? Nancy, your back isn’t hurting anymore, is it?”

“Shut up!” Nancy’s face flushed a deep red, disbelief washing over her as she gaped at Jacob. She couldn’t believe he said such brazen words.

Jacob had spoken quietly enough for only the two of them to hear, but the crowd in the private room began urging her on again.

‘Nancy, what are you doing? Don’t forget what you have to do. A bet is a bet!”

Flustered, Nancy exclaimed, “I want to change my partner!”

“Who do you want to exchange me with?” Jacob’s eyes narrowed further, the air around them growing tense with danger.

“That’s none of your business!”

Thinking about how he had been cold to her lately made Nancy even angrier, and she snapped back defiantly. “It’s just a game! I have the right to decide who I want to play it with.”

“You can play with me,” he said coolly.

Jacob’s expression darkened as he removed his gold–rimmed glasses from the bridge of his nose. The calm demeanor he usually maintained vanished, replaced by a palpable aggression. Nancy felt like prey being stalked by a wolf, fear creeping into her heart. Instinctively, she wanted to run, but before she could take a single step, a strong pair of hands gripped her waist tightly. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

Before she could react, her chin was tilted up, and Jacob’s heated lips descended upon hers.

Nancy’s pupils dilated in shock. She was too stunned to respond.

“Be good, Nance. Open your mouth,” came Jacob’s alluring voice in her ear. For a moment, she was entranced and obediently parted her lips.

The next second, Jacob’s kiss turned fervent and demanding. Their lips and tongues entwined as he stole her breath away, leaving her powerless to resist.

A soft moan escaped Nancy’s lips as she struggled to keep up with the intensity of the kiss. Instead of letting her deepened their connection. The sounds of their kiss echoing
