Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 634

"He's got a death wish."

Hudson narrowed his eyes, a violent storm brewing in his dark gaze.

Nora nodded rapidly. "He also threatened me. He said if I told you about his identity or the deal, he'd destroy the Ivory Pill..."

She paused, adding with utmost seriousness, "So we need a solid plan. We have to put on a show for him."

Hudson looked down at her earnest, rambling expression, and the murderous intent in his chest instantly melted away.

The next second, he leaned in and captured her lips.

He kissed her deeply, thoroughly, savoring the taste of her with a seductive tension that left her breathless and dizzy.

When he finally pulled back, their foreheads rested together, their breaths mingling. "My wife is so smart..." he murmured, his voice husky.

Nora shot him a mild glare, but her gaze inadvertently drifted downward.

She froze, and a second later, her face erupted in a fiery blush.

"...Hudson!"

"Hmm?"

"How are you..."

She pointed a trembling finger toward his lower half, the tips of her ears burning hot.

A single kiss and he was already like this?

He really had zero self-control.

Hudson glanced down, then looked back up at her, a faint, entirely unashamed smile playing on his lips.

"I can't help it. You smell too damn good. It's not my fault."

"..."

Talk about blaming the victim!

"We have the Venison Feast in a bit," she stammered. "How... how are you going to go out looking like that?"

Hudson chuckled low in his throat. He leaned in, his breath brushing the shell of her ear, sending a flurry of shivers down her spine. "Then take pity on me, honey?"

Nora bit her lip. "I... I sprained my ankle."

"I know." His voice dropped an octave, laced with a wicked, teasing edge. "You won't have to move a muscle."

"..."

Nora was so flustered her ears were practically glowing. It took her a long moment to squeeze out a response. "You... handle that yourself."

Seeing her curled up, looking as though she wanted to bury herself in the cushions, Hudson's smile widened. He leaned back against the sofa and actually reached for his belt buckle.

But his dark eyes stayed glued to her face. "Then watch me, honey..."

"..."
