Chapter 138: Hate To Want You 2

  Damian's POV -

  I smiled. "I have opened my door to you, the door to my heart, which I never did before."

  "Seriously?"

  "Would you like to progress to a more intimate level?"

  Her breath was taken away by the sexual magnetism I was projecting. Almost everything about me was a breath of fresh air for her.

  Emily sipped the champagne, allowing her heart to relax.

  I chided, "C'mon, don't go shy."

  "Do you make a habit of picking up women?" she inquired, her curiosity piqued.

  "No. I am a very picky person. Consider yourself an exception to my rule."

  Her heart pounded with the hope that it wouldn't be suffocated. "What makes you think you can make an exception of me?"

  My strong, purposeful fingers ran over her left hand. Under the light touch, her skin seemed to come alive. She resisted the urge to snatch her hand away, which would have been a silly overreaction.

  "Please join me for dinner."
