Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)

Chapter 154

Chapter 154 Just This Once

Suddenly, Dominic grabbed Bella and pulled her into the room. "If you don't want me to leave, just say it. Stop acting all sad like we'll never see each other again."

As soon as he finished speaking, he kissed her as if it were the most natural thing in the world. It was a kiss that came effortlessly, like something a couple might do without a second thought.

This time, Bella didn't resist. She thought to herself, "Just this once, I'll let myself give in..."

On the bed, her hands were pinned above her head. He liked it that way.

When she realized what was about to happen, her face flushed deep red. Her lips were soft and glistening, while the blush on her cheeks spread to the tips of her ears.

When she buried her face in her arm, her delicate features were outlined in the soft glow of the room, as if captured perfectly in a painted portrait.

Maybe it was the look in her eyes that mesmerized him, but Dominic lowered his head and playfully nipped at her chin, making her heart race. When he pressed his body down against hers, Bella moaned. At that moment, she couldn't help but feel a deep affection. It welled up inside her when she looked into his affectionate gaze.
