Chapter 319

The heavy rain continued pouring until the middle of the night.

At 1:50 am, Vespera roused from a deep sleep. She was too exhausted to lift a finger. A lazy satisfaction lingered on her face. Her skin felt as if it were coated in glue. This made her wary of sticking to the sheets with every move, leaving her uncomfortable and desperate for a shower. She squirmed slightly, like a caterpillar.

"Don't move," a voice murmured, as the arm draped over her chest pulled her closer, and a gentle kiss was placed below her earlobe.

"Where do you think you're going? This is your home."

Vespera's cheeks flushed a deep red. She wasn't planning to leave.

"I just want to take a shower," she admitted.

Dominic opened his eyes and gazed at her.

"I'll help you," he offered.

"No, it's okay," she quickly replied. "I don't need a shower anymore!"

If he "repaid" her one more time, she felt she might just perish. It was more than enough for her. It seemed like all the estrogen in her body, which should have been balanced over the years, had been balanced all at once.

Vespera clung tightly to the bedsheet. "I... I don't want to shower anymore. I want to sleep!"
