Let Me Stay The Night

Christina carefully explained Victoria’s side of the story to Nathaniel.

With a frown, she added, “Something still feels off to me. If Melanie’s initial target was you, why did she appear in Sebastian’s room instead of yours?”

She was intent on figuring out why Melanie had suddenly changed her plan.

Nathaniel promptly arched a brow in displeasure. His attention swiftly locked onto her mention of changing targets. He asked drily, “Did you want me to be involved with other women?”

His words took Christina aback, though she quickly recovered and shook her head vigorously. “Not at all.”

In fact, her demeanor took an immediate one-eighty as she declared, “Listen up, Nathaniel. If you ever cheat on me with another woman, I will divorce you and make sure you never see your children again. I’ll take your money and your children to find another man.”

A frightening expression flashed through Nathaniel’s deep gaze. He replied warningly, “I would never fault if anyone touches my woman, but I’ll hunt them down and make them wish they were never born.”
