Fear drained the color from Liam's face. He rushed forward, grasped her hand, and dropped to his knees. "Grace, please don't be angry! Hit me if you must, but please, don't be angry. I'm begging you!"

Irritation welled up within Grace, and she attempted to dislodge her hand, but Liam maintained a firm grip. He kept her hand pressed against his own cheek.

Overcome by panic, tears now began to cascade down his face, his eyes fixed upon her with a look of hopeful supplication.

"Let go, Liam." She struggled harder. "This trick doesn't work every time. I don't have the patience for this anymore."
