"My Rose, don't be such a tease. Bestow me a chance to share a dance with you too, my love. If you can excuse us, Henry. I need to have a dance with my woman." Mr. Atticus said, making me blink at him in shock.
Henry immediately left me, smiling menacingly as he left us alone. Leaving me in the lion's den all alone. And his woman? When did that even happen? I wanted to ask but refrained myself.
"Smile, Rose. People might start thinking I'm forcing you to dance with me." He said, twirling me around and I cleared my throat as the song changed.
"No-one is so desperate to know about us, Sir. If you're forcing me to dance with you or if I'm willingly here." I said and he pulled me towards him, my fingers resting on his chest as I looked into his eyes. Something felt different in them.
