Page 98 of My Ruthless Opponent

“Are you trying to pick a fight, princess? Is that it?” His eyes are searching my face as if he doesn’t know why I’m upset. Men!

“That’s something you do,RJ.” I stomp on his leg with my stiletto.

He doesn’t wince and narrows his eyes at me. Though there’s something else in them. Fire.

“I think you have a lot to say, Hannah.” Oh, so I am Hannah now? “Why don’t we sit and talk in our suite like adults after the first round is over, hmm?”

“Maybe I won’t be in the mood to talk by then.” I tilt my chin in defiance.

“Oh, I know how to get you in the mood.” He smirks before letting me go.

Clutching me by the shoulders, he turns me before slapping my ass. “Get ready, we have a date in half an hour.”

My jaw is on the floor as he saunters off to God knows where.

I sneak a glance at Archer. His eyes are still trained on me. He arches a brow.

I give him a smile and march toward my table.

You’ll pay, Raleigh Jackson. No one spanks Hannah Cooper and lives to tell the tale. I am going to destroy you!

Chapter Nineteen

Iforce myself to relax when I feel him coming behind me. His arm comes around my waist. He pulls me to his chest, his lips brushing my temple. I immediately stiffen.

“Hannah… just relax. Imagine you are all alone with Raleigh.” The photographer forces a smile as he lowers his digital camera for the third time.

Relaxing in the arms of the devil is beyond my ability. I am livid. So fucking furious I could bash Raleigh’s head in the glass wall I am currently facing.

We are in one of the oceanfront suites with a huge lanai. For Raleigh’s Date concept photoshoot.

I insulted him for lurking around my set. I should’ve known the bastard would try to get even.

I had all my people in place, everything was ready. Lights, camera, and reflectors.

I even had my team hire actors for a montage shoot of a family playing in the pool.

Music was playing as the child actors and the adults were acting like the happy family on a vacation.

I was impressed by my team. They had filled the pool with flamingo, unicorn inflatable floats as well as rainbow donut tubes. And made the pool area lively.

The actors were also doing a fabulous job.

I was getting nervous by just watching them act with so much ease.

After their photoshoot and videos were shot, it was my turn. With Raleigh. I was in our suite fishing out my blue one-piece halter neck bathing suit when Raleigh barged in.

“There’s a problem.”

“What is it?” I didn’t bother to face him. Because every time I glanced at him it reminded me of this morning and how he ignored me.

My feelings were hurt. And I wanted to act like a bitch to him.

“The people I had hired for my date concept photoshoot are here.”

“So?”

“They are early. I can’t make them wait for hours.” That made me whirl on my heels.
