He stopped, raising his eyebrows 1 in blatant 2 disbelief. Then he flashed a wide, wicked smile. 他停顿下来，明显是难以置信地扬起了眉毛。然后他露出了一个大大的坏笑。
You really shouldn't have said that, he chuckled 3. “你真的不应该这样说的。”他轻笑着说。
He growled 4, a low sound in the back of his throat; his lips curled back over his perfect teeth. 他咆哮着，从喉咙深处发出一阵低吼声，他的嘴唇向后蜷起，露出了他完美无瑕的牙齿。
His body shifted suddenly, half-crouched, tensed like a lion about to pounce 5. 他的身形忽然改变了，半蜷伏着身子，紧绷得像一只即将猛扑过来的狮子。
I backed away from him, glaring. 我瞪着他，向后退去。
You wouldn't. “你不会这样做的。”
I didn't see him leap at me — it was much too fast. I only found myself suddenly airborne, and then we crashed onto the sofa, knocking it into the wall. 我根本没看见他向我扑过来——这一切太快了。我只发觉自己忽然间就在半空中，然后我们一起撞到了沙发上，把它撞到了墙上。
All the while, his arms formed an iron cage of protection around me — I was barely jostled. But I still was gasping 6 as I tried to right myself. 整个过程中，他的手臂一直像一个铁笼子一样保护着我——我没有受到任何冲击。但我依然透不过气来，努力想让自己在沙发上坐起来。
He wasn't having that. He curled me into a ball against his chest, holding me more securely than iron chains. 他不让我这样做。他让我蜷伏在他的胸前，缩成了一个球。他的铁臂紧紧地抱住我，比铁链还要牢固。
I glared at him in alarm, but he seemed well in control, his jaw 7 relaxed as he grinned, his eyes bright only with humor. 我有些担忧地注视着他，但他显然控制得很好，他的下颌松懈着，咧嘴一笑。他的眼睛很明亮，眼里只有笑意。
You were saying? he growled playfully. “你在说什么？”他开玩笑似的咆哮着。
That you are a very, very terrifying monster, I said, my sarcasm 8 marred 9 a bit by my breathless voice. “我说，你是个非常，非常可怕的怪物。”我说道，但我的讽刺稍有些瑕疵，因为我的声音依然有些喘不过气来。
Much better, he approved. “这就好多了。”他深表赞许。
Um. I struggled. Can I get up now? “呃嗯，”我挣扎着。“我现在能起来了吗？”
He just laughed. 他只是大笑着。
Can we come in? a soft voice sounded from the hall. “我们能进来吗？”一个柔和的声音在走廊外响起。
