Observing Nora's helpless expression, Pedro Langley curved his lips slightly and subtly leaned closer to her.
Almost whispering, he asked, "Do you really have to hide?"
His low, hoarse voice lingered in the air, and she could distinctly feel his breath on her exposed skin, causing a ripple of discomfort.
