Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 135

Joycelyn’s petite, fair face was filled with quiet frustration as she tried to free her hand from Ellison’s firm grip. The disdain in her expression was undeniable.

Ellison chuckled softly, his low voice resonating like a gentle hug in the air. “Careful, there are steps. Take it slow.”

Ellison kept her hand firmly in his, his grip steady yet teasing, as they strolled toward the cruise ship together.

As they walked, his fingers toyed with hers in a subtle, almost playful manner, as if their earlier exchange had been nothing more than an intimate joke shared between a married couple.

The attendants deeply bowed as the duo approached the steps, welcoming them onboard.

Ellison’s demeanor seamlessly shifted back to his usual calm and commanding presence, radiating an air of quiet authority.

Draped in a perfectly tailored black suit that fluttered subtly in the cool breeze, Ellison exuded an aura of refined elegance and noble restraint

Yet beneath the polished exterior lingered an undeniable edge of roguish charm, a captivating fusion of sophistication and mischief that was as alluring as it was disarming.

Earlier, Lucy had advised her with a sly smile, “Men can be beast in bed, and that’s just their nature. As long as they’re gentle and considerate, it’s nothing to worry about.”

Joycelyn had to admit that Ellison was thoughtful, attentive, and undeniably responsible in bed. ‘Perhaps his constant cheeky remarks weren’t worth getting worked up over, she thought.

“Are you tired?” Ellison asked as they climbed the steps.

“Not really,” Joycelyn replied.

Ellison smiled faintly, his lips curving ever so slightly. “A hot bath later will help you relax. The flight must have been tiring.

His voice, deep and smooth with a husky edge, seemed almost hypnotic. It was the kind of voice people joked about–one that could make someone fall for him on sound alone.

Joycelyn’s mind raced as she replayed the events on the plane. Elison’s tone was subtle yet suggestive, making her question whether his words were truly innocent.

“What’s so funny?” Joycelyn shot back, her rare defiance laced with embarrassment.

Joycelyn wouldn’t have dared to respond so boldly if she hadn’t felt that he was deliberately bringing up the flight. As his subordinate, she was acutely aware of the disparity in their statuses.

While she could occasionally indulge in acting spoiled around him, she’d never forgotten her places

Ellison raised an eyebrow, clearly amused. “You, of course,” he teased.
