Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257: Tonight, she will help him

"Lala, is that how you are supposed to help Mommy?" Ella glanced at the kitty who was sitting innocently after taking a divine bite from the fresh fish that she had just cleaned.

Lala blinked her huge eyes.

Ella opened her mouth to scold her some more but before she could say a word, Riri stepped forward, shielding Lala behind him.

"_"

Ella fell speechless. This...

Eventually, she sighed and looked at them in amusement, "Forget it, I will let you off this time..."

Her words trailed off when she heard the sound of approaching footsteps.

The moment Ella turned her head away from Riri and Lala, she was pulled into a strong embrace.

Before Ella could recover her senses, Adrian lifted her up and placed her on the kitchen counter.

"Baby, when did you come back?" As she spoke, her gaze inadvertently shifted to his wrists.

Without waiting for his reply, Ella lifted one sleeve of his suit jacket and glanced at his bandages, "I think we need to change them."

"Mm, help me out."

One moment, Ella was still sitting on the kitchen counter but in the next moment, Adrian picked her up in a princess carry.

"Wait... wait... the food..."

Adrian turned off the stove with one hand and left the kitchen with huge strides.

The moment they reached the master bedroom, Ella spoke up, "Do you have a first aid box here? Or just put me down, I can get it from my room real quick—"

Adrian lifted her up in his arms, holding her straight this time as he pulled her in.

Her legs coiled around his waist.

"Or, help me with something else," The man leaned in, whispering against her lips.

Ella froze.

For a moment, she stilled in his arms.

And then, it took her a moment to spot that look in his eyes, hungry, ravenous...

Almost like... like he wanted to devour her.

The way he looked at her was almost intimidating but at the same time, it did something strange to her.

"I think... I think we should have dinner..."

"Feed me then."

Ella’s jaw dropped but Adrian did not remain still in his position.

He climbed onto the king sized bed and hovered above her.

For a moment, both of them did not say anything.

And the tension in the air thickened to a point that Ella could barely breathe.

She felt weirdly heaty everywhere and it made her squirm a little.

After a beat, she opened her mouth, "You just came back from work yet you are here with me, like this..." She pointed at the space between them, "One might think that I am on your mind the entire day."

Adrian leaned towards her as he opened his mouth, caressing her lips with every word he uttered "Where is the lie?’’

Ella’s eyes widened.

Before she could recover from his words, he leaned in and captured her lips.

Adrian kissed her like a man starved, lips crashing into hers with a hunger that made her gasp.
