Blackmailed For Vengeance(55)

“Get away from me Yanis… You can’t do this” her voice husky with emotion. He however, held her tightly, his hand firm against the base of her back, as he swayed with her on the dance floor. Looking down on her his face sombre he had said gently

“You left me little choice Lee, You wouldn’t answer any of the calls I left with everybody, not even those I left with Peter”

“What are you doing here” she whispered huskily in confusion

“They told me you were out of the country; I checked you were in Paris”

Yanis’s face was grim as he looked at her

“I’ve been trying to find you for weeks Lee, not even the damn paparazzi could find you …..so in the end I had to resort to a little subterfuge. You had quit your job and cancelled all of your other appointments so this was the only avenue left to me. I stayed out of the country until an hour ago only coming back at the very last moment.. I couldn’t take the chance you wouldn’t come”

“Why, Yanis” she said miserably “Just leave me alone, we have nothing more to say to each other, please just go away”

“I disagree Lee, we have a lot to talk about” he said gently, holding her tightly against him as she had closed her eyes to once more, even for that fleeting time feel herself in his arms. Miserably, she had felt her tears start to rise at the way her whole body yearned for him while knowing that she had to get away. After a few seconds she had become aware that he was slowly moving her towards the exit. Realising his intentions she had tried to move away from him as he had held her even tighter against him as she moaned gently feeling his hard body against her, causing all the old sensations to rise up within her.

Looking pleadingly into his face she had whispered

“Please don’t do this Yanis”

She watched his jaw clench tightly as he released her, before grabbing her hand to drag her out of the door. However, she had held back struggling with him, until with an exasperated sigh he had pulled her back into his arms kissing her. She had heard the flashing cameras, not seeing the flashes themselves, as the moment his lips had met hers, she had been lost, her head dizzy with the sensations he rose within her. Automatically her arms had wrapped around his neck, as she moved to the once place in the world she most longed to be, in his arms. As he released her, his eyes had been dark and full of such passion, before he had once more become determined and with a small moan he had grabbed her hand leading her out of the room as she had let him, walking with him in an almost trance like state.

It was only as they reached the lift and after he had punched in a floor number that she had once more come too.

“What are you doing… you can’t kidnap me” she cried in frustration

“Technically there is a whole room of people who will confirm that you left the room with me willingly” he said not meeting her eyes as he watched the floors slip away

She had stared at him with a panic welling up within her, as she wrung her hands by her side her face full of so many different emotions as she searched for something else to throw at him

“You promised that you would leave me alone… you signed a contract” she threw at him as the doors to the lift opened. As he grabbed her hand once again, pulling her forward to one of the rooms he had bit out

“So sue me” before opening one of the many doors on the landing, which had opened up into a large suite.

Finally they were alone, the two of them facing each other. Lee had tried to ignore his long lean muscular body so close to her that she only needed to take a step forward to feel his hardness fully against her. Swallowing hard she looked down at her feet, her arms wrapped around herself protectively, not willing to look up at him

“I can’t do this Yanis” she said her voice low “Please just let me go back to the party”

He however, had taken a half step closer to her to raise her chin with his finger so that he could look into her eyes. As she finally saw his face, she had gasped in shock, seeing just how drawn and tired he looked, his wonderful eyes lack lustre.

“I just want to talk to you Lee” he said gently

Lifting her finger to softly touch his cheek she had whispered

“You look so tired Yanis”

He had given her a small sad smile “So do you Cara”

Lee had shaken herself pulling away from him, and he was reminded for a moment of another man who had stood before her, who had done her wrong, and the memory had shaken him, knowing how she had refused to forgive him

“Please, there really isn’t much to say… Let’s just put this behind us and get on with our lives” she said quietly
