The moment my tongue connected to his finger, Carter and I froze, caught in the sudden sensation.

He quickly withdrew his hand.

I remained still in the posture where my lips slightly parted, unable to respond.

It felt like the sensation of his fingertips still lingered on my tongue.

His fingers, though pale with prominent bones, were beautifully shaped. But the inner side was rough, as if hardened from work..

So when I ran my tongue over them, it wasn't smooth-there was a slight grittiness to it

"S-sorry. I didn't mean to, I quickly apologized, mortified by my rudeness.

"It's fine," he replied casually, though I could clearly spot a blush creeping from the base of his ears down to his neck.

His skin, already pale from years of staying indoors, turned an unmistakable red at the slightest hint of color.

My eyes instinctively drifted to his neck, and my mind wandered-was his whole body blushing, too?

That alabaster skin, touched by the faintest pink, would surely be irresistible.

Realizing my own thoughts, I snapped out of it. This was dangerous!

When I was with Luke, he relied on me, and I had grown used to taking care of him.

We had been together since childhood. Over time, our relationship lost its romantic spark, becoming more like family.

The two of us lived like an old married couple, with no excitement left in our lives. Besides, with our busy. work schedules, I rarely had any intimate contact with him.

But with Carter, although we had known each other for years, we had never spent much time together.

I wasn't sure if it was the novelty of it all, but suddenly, found myself imagining things about him.

That couldn't be a good sign. I quickly looked for an excuse to leave.
