"I am not looking smarmy in a night gown! You've barged into my flat while I was sleeping! Do you think I just sleep in my clothes?" Annabell slammed her hands down on the table under her and slid the glass away. "You're asking for my help and I've been asking you all night to give me a good reason to trust me. You realize you haven't done that once? You're a bloody good kisser but that doesn't mean I'm going to jump to my feet and swoon after you! Oh, no, I've got no idea what sort of women you are used to dealing with but that is not the kind of woman I am! I'm not some pretty face or young girl who is going to jump without a very, very, good reason to do so."
Annabell leaned forward to meet him, brown eyes set ablaze as she stared right into his eyes. "So, start proving why I should jump, clever boy, or leave. Because I'm not going anywhere until you do."
