Chapter 12 A Fatal Kiss
Now that she'd decided to make this place her home for the time being, Victoria would make Room 202 her own bedroom.
She took all the stuff out of her suitcase and put them away one by one, then she adjusted the desk lamp, the bed, and the wardrobe to the positions she was used to.
After that, she picked up her phone and checked it. It was already 10:12 p.m.
Victoria was not hungry though she didn't have dinner. But she felt sticky all over after having sweated a lot, so she went for a bath.
The villa had three floors.
There were 201 rooms and 16 bathrooms on the second floor.
Victoria randomly went in the bathroom closest to her bedroom.
She didn't realize that she had forgotten to bring the clothes to change until she finished the bath.
Before she went in the bathroom, she found the second floor was all empty, and expected no one else there, so she wrapped a towel around her private parts and left the bathroom barefoot.
"Crack!"
There suddenly came a clear sound.
Victoria looked towards the sound and the next second, she saw Edmund.
To be exact, it was Edmund who was in underwear only!
The moment Edmund showed up at the door of Best Medicine, Victoria noticed that he was in good shape.
Unexpectedly, his body shape was so perfect!
The lines were clear and tough, and the size of the muscles was just right, as if it was containing infinite strength.
He had just taken a bath. His thick black hair was wet, with a few crystal water drops dipping down his delicate and smooth skin.
"Are you done staring at me?"
Edmund said in a rather magnetic and cold voice.
Not until then did Victoria realize that she had been staring at Edmund without a blink. Then she lowered her head to hide it.
She was red in the face.
"Sorry, I didn't know you were in the opposite bathroom. Excuse me."
She said and tried to get out of there.
After all, she was in a panic, and the floor was slippery. Accidentally, she slipped, and immediately threw herself towards Edmund.
It just happened so fast.
Even someone as smart and quick as Edmund, didn't realize it.
Victoria pushed him on the chest, and he took a step back. Bang! His broad back hit the wall hard.
Soon afterwards, Victoria threw herself into his arms tightly!
"Ah... Sorry!"
Victoria freaked out!
She pushed Edmund away in a hurry, trying to turn around and run away.
However, her feet were wet. As soon as she took the step, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"Ah!"
She instinctively wanted to grab something that could help regain her balance.
In this way, she naturally put her arms around Edmund's neck.
The bath towel around her had dropped on the floor.
It just couldn't be more embarrassing! Victoria's mind went blank.
She didn't notice that at this moment, Edmund's eyes were not as cold as usual, but as hot as fire.
The moment she threw herself on him, Edmund had planned to push her away in disgust.
However, when he felt her delicate skin with his, and smelled the unique fragrance on her, he was turned on and went out of control.
He had a stronger desire more than ever!
It seemed he had lost himself.
Instead of pushing her away, he grabbed Victoria by the waist and held her tightly in his arms.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips.
When Victoria somehow realized it, she saw Edmund's perfect lips coming near and kissing her right on hers.
"Hmm..."
They kissed each other passionately.
Victoria felt her heart racing and couldn't calm herself at all.
Meanwhile, she was wondering why Edmund was kissing her.
He kissed her more possessively before she could ask him why.
The kiss was so hot and seductive that she couldn't resist it.
Victoria lost herself in the kiss, as if she was in a nice dream.
In the dream, the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming. The birds were flying and the butterflies were dancing. It was so beautiful that she wouldn't feel regret if she couldn't wake up from this dream again.
"Um!"
Victoria couldn't help to moan lightly in the wild kiss.
Edmund had carried her in his arms, exchanged their positions, and pressed her against the wall.
To Edmund, the faint fragrance on her was even more disturbing than the poison of that night, and it had completely turned him on.
He was totally out of reason. The only thing he wanted to do was do what he had done to the girl night.
His indifferent eyes looked bloody red.
He held Victoria's waist hard, and was about to have her.
All at once, there came the wind.
Bang! A door nearby slammed shut in a gust of wind.
The loud noise brought Edmund back to his senses in an instant.
"Go away!"
Saying it, Edmund pushed Victoria hard on her shoulders.
Victoria, who was leaning against the wall, bumped into it violently and felt the severe pain all over.
But when she looked at Edmund, who was so perfect, she still hadn't fully woken up.
"Huh, Victoria Collins! Indeed, you are good at seducing men."
The majestic and dignified Edmund, whose lips were flame-like after the hot kiss which he had just devoted himself to, looked a little naughty on his extremely handsome face.
It made him look even more charming!
It made him look even more fatally tempting!
Victoria was stunned.
What? Did she seduce him?
For God's sake! He had kissed her first...
However, she parted her lips and tried to talk back, only to find that she was still too breathless to speak.
"Like I said, I have no interest in you. Your little tricks won't work on me. Stop wasting your time."
Edmund had come to his senses. His eyes looked indifferent as usual, but from somewhere deep in his eyes, they were still shining like stars.
His voice sounded cold and kind of hoarse.
"I'll let go at that this time. I swear to God that I won't go easy on you if you dare seduce me like a whore again."
Saying it, he went back into the bathroom and slammed the door.
Finally, Victoria got it.
It turned out that Edmund had mistakenly thought that it was not a coincidence that she ran into him out of the bathroom, but her way of seducing him!
In his eyes, she was always a bad woman!
In this case, why did he kiss her first?
The only possibility was that he was warning her in that way.
Normally, geniuses think differently from ordinary people.
And Edmund was a business genius!
Or, to Edmund, kissing a woman was a way of warning?
Otherwise, why did he kiss her so hard?
Huh! It was funny!
Thinking of this, Victoria felt relieved.
She stood up with the help of the wall.
Until then, Victoria's lips were still aching, and her heart was still pounding. That kiss had truly impressed her!
Victoria had to say that Edmund was way too charming.
His charm was like drugs.
It was deadly, but extremely tempting.
She knew clearly that it was dangerous to fall in love with a man like him.
In the next one hundred days, she must stay alert and not let herself fall for him!
