    In a dimly lit room , two figures were entangled on the bed sensual moans and groans could be heard as the sound of flesh-slapping filled the room. The rigorous sexual activity was interrupted by a vibration, the male groaned and the female hissed in between labored breathing.The male turned to his right to see his phone beaming and vibrating on the nightstand, with one last groan he made to pull out but the female could hear none of it as she circled his waist with her legs locking him and pulled him back in to her biting her lower lip seductively .Whining and grinding her sex against his making him groan in pleasure and forget about the phone for the moment as they immersed themselves into the drowning passion of lovemaking.He smirked at her boldness,the next thing she knew his bare hand was already curled round her waist tightly branding her like a hot searing flame.

" Chloe's words were very clear and decisive, showing no signs of reluctance rather she seemed eager to do it and be over with " I have the same hunch too , still can't can't wrap my finger around the fact that she has something on Liam.I wouldn't say he was threatened because Liam can't be threatened.
