Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 197: Yet, she was nearly paralyzed with fear. She had no desire to endure such disrespectful treatment again. Her whole life had been derailed by what happened that night. Milton gazed at her with a lustful intensity. His piercing stare frightened her. Because of this, Candice closed her eyes, refusing to look at him. After struggling for a time, she finally gave up. If he wanted to have sex with her, he was free to do so. She could probably endure it until morning. She would have to take it as another wound and move on. It wouldn't kill her.

So, Candice waited with her eyes closed, expecting him to penetrate her. Nevertheless, nothing happened. Despite his intense yearning, Milton restrained himself with his waning mental strength. He rose and sat back down on the sofa. He needed to avoid her at all costs. He craved her desperately in that moment, but he knew the feeling would pass. The stress from the torture seemed as if it would break his body completely. Still, he did his best to rein himself in, determined not to take her by force. A mistake had been made once, but it was one he could never afford to repeat.

What he truly wanted was for her to accept him of her own free will. Leaning against the sofa, Milton continued to pant. The events replayed in his mind. Why had the spray taken so long to take effect after he was sprayed? It seemed impossible that it hadn't worked until now. Only one possibility remained: he was hurt and bleeding. The pain had intensified as he drove her back to his house. The effect of the spray had been delayed by the pain.

Milton immediately understood the reason for it all. He removed the gauze from his arm and ripped open the wound. He lowered his arm, and bright red blood dripped onto the sofa and floor. It looked ominous. The sharp pain jolted him back to reality. He finally felt able to release the overwhelming urge that had been building within his entire body. His breathing slowed somewhat. He feared that if he let Candice go, she would relapse. He was determined to prevent that. He convinced her to stay with him because he trusted himself to keep his desires in check.

He felt safest with her under his care. Milton needed to remain sober. So he deliberately worsened the wound. . . .
