Chapter 127 Xanthea flashed a mischievous smile at Queenie, her pale fingers tracing a path down from Orion's neck, slowly sliding under his crisp suit jacket to his white shirt. With a gentle flick, she undid the top button, revealing a bright red bite mark beneath.

Queenie's face turned ashen when she saw the mark, the color matching Xanthea's lipstick perfectly. It hit. her like a thunderbolt, leaving her rooted to the spot in shock, Was Xanthea really Ori's girlfriend? Had they already slept together?

The intensity of that bite mark spoke volumes.

"Is that right, Ori?" As Xanthea's fingertips grazed another bite mark along his collarbone, her voice carried a hint of playful coquetry, her allure nearly palpable. Anyone would be ensnared by her charm.

Yet, Orion remained unmoved.

Seeing Queenie so devastated, Xanthea almost pushed away the dull man in front of her.

Unexpectedly, a strong hand gripped her slender waist and pulled her into a fiery embrace. "Hmm." "Yes." Orion's features were taut, his eyes tinged with a fierce red. Even his monosyllabic reply was gruff and hoarse, his body trembling with a tingling sensation, as if about to explode from her teasing.

He clenched his teeth, his brows furrowed as if struggling to maintain his crumbling sanity. How dare she provoke him so openly, wasn't she afraid he'd lose control and take her right there? "Ori." If Queenie had held any sliver of hope before, it was now shattered at the sight before ber.

"How could this be, how could this be!" Xanthea was nearly suffocated by his overwhelming embrace, frantically pushing against his chest but to no avail.

Hey! Was he trying to play along or was he trying to kill her? Failing to break free, she stepped hard on his shoes several times and twisted around until he finally released her.

She was catching her breath, about to speak, when Orion suddenly grabbed her hand and planted a kiss on it. Xanthea froze, her eyes wide in shock- Unable to withstand the onslaught of emotions, Queenie covered her mouth and ran out the door sobbing, "Wahhhhh." 1/2 Chapter 127

How could this be? How could this be! Ori had truly fallen under the spell of this temptress! As a man so famously indifferent in matters of the heart, he kissed a woman so passionately in public! "Click."

The sound of Leonard snapping a photo with his phone brought the stunned Xanthea back to reality. She swiftly pulled her hand back, staring at Orion as if he were crazy, "What are you doing?"

Orion slowly lifted his gaze, a trace of amusement still lingering in his m desire-filled eyes, "Ms. Nightshade, didn't you wantto play along with your little ?" Chapter 128
