Remembering Harmony (Billionaire)

2. Who Are You?

As Harmony stared up into Liam's eyes, which seemed to curiously scan her own while he towered over her, she whimpered during an attempt to break free from him, but she only whimpered more when she felt his hands on her arms tighten.

"It's you," he said. "I know it's you."

She wrapped her hands around his wrists and attempted to push him off with all her strength but was no match for him.

In that moment of fear, she noticed his forehead crease as he moved his face closer.

"Who are you to me?" he asked.

With a racing heart, she scanned his gorgeous features, but only wished to break free.

She also hoped her best friend, Blake, would show up.

It was only when she heard distinct chatter from the crowd that had started to form around them that she took her eyes off him to glance at them.

Wanting to leave, as she was never one who did well with being the center of attention in a crowd, she thought about how she could get away from him

"Don't look at them, look at me!" Liam shook her by the arms.

"You're hurting me," she said with a look of discomfort.

"I'm not letting you go until you tell me who you are to me."

"Please let me go."

"Just tell me who you are to me!"

She scanned his face once again, noticing his impatience and desperation to hear her response.

"I....I don't know you," she said.

"What?" He tilted his head with furrowed eyebrows.

"Hey!" Blake yelled.

Harmony could hear her best friend yell the entire time she pushed through the crowd, but was so stuck on Liam's reaction that he was all she could see. She noticed his chest rise and fall rapidly, and his wide eyes which seemed to not return to their normal size.

It was only when Blake hit Liam's arm that Harmony snapped out of it. She glanced at her best friend attempting a few more hits with gritted teeth as her short hair bounced around.

Motivated, Harmony made efforts to push him away, hoping that with Blake doing her best to set her free, she could finally get away, but the more she tried, the more his grip tightened.

When their combined efforts seemed futile, Harmony's knees were almost giving up on her, especially because of how he continued to focus only on her despite Blake shaking and pushing him.

"How could we not know each other when you're all I've been thinking about?" Liam asked, breathing loudly. "Does that make sense to you?"

"I already told you that I don't know you so please get away from-"

Suddenly, she noticed Liam getting pulled back from behind and when she looked, two buff men in suits were trying to get him away from her, but he didn't make it easy for them and yelled for them to stay away.

The more aggressive he became, the more his hands squeezed her arms and when she winced, Blake moved behind her and wrapped her arms around her and pulled.

As Liam continued in his fight to not let go, Harmony looked to the side when Justin rushed to her and smiled at her despite the situation.

"Hello, Miss, I'm Justin and I'm sorry about Liam."

"Get these guys off me!" Liam grunted.

"How about you let go of my friend!" Blake yelled with her arms still around Harmony.
