He didn’t mean to laugh, but he did, sharp and almost bitter as he watched her part her lips like she expected Leo to kiss her again. He wanted to, not because he had the desire to kiss her again, but because he wanted to watch Miss Malfoy war with herself. Half expecting her to step back at that point, his own lips pressed into a frown the moment she opened her mouth — the woman was always sharp witted, and he hated that her words caught him off guard.
Leo forced out a chuckle, his thumb brushing against the soft skin of her cheek. “The world exists purely for my entertainment, and I take whatever it is that I want.” Blue eyes flicked up to her face, his body unmoving as she smoothed out the crease of his jacket. “I’m not sure anyone would want to marry you anyway, not when you keep having moments like this.” He murmured quietly, bringing his lips closer until they ghosted over hers. “But I’d like to see you try to ruin me. We could make it a game, who can ruin the other quicker.” She might be able to play the victim, but he was a high ranking ministry official with a clean record — who was to say she wasn’t playing him to get some form of status?
“Tell me you don’t want this, Estelle.” Leo skipped over all formalities. The hand on her hip drew her in closer, but Leo didn’t dare kiss her. She was going to have to want it, but now he found that he did want it simply because she wasn’t quick to give into him. Well played Miss Malfoy, well played.
