Chapter 247: Taken

Levi’s POV

I waited for her to pull away. To say no. To call me crazy or remind me she belonged to my uncle.

But she didn’t.

She just stared at me... and for a second, I couldn’t even breathe.

She didn’t say anything.

Her lips were slightly parted, and her eyes looked unsure—but not angry. Not afraid.

I leaned in again, slower this time.

And when I kissed her... it was like something inside me snapped.

It wasn’t soft or gentle.

It was full of need. Hunger.

She gasped a little, and I felt her grip my shirt.

Her lips moved with mine, and a low sound left my throat—a moan I didn’t even mean to let out.

I pulled her onto my lap without thinking.

My hands went to her waist, then her hips, holding her close.

She pressed against me, and we kissed again—deeper, harder, like we couldn’t get enough of each other.

Her fingers ran through my hair, and mine moved to her lower back, then down.

I grabbed her ass, and she let out a soft moan into my mouth.

It felt like the world disappeared.

Just her.

Just this.

We kissed desperately. Our tongues tangled... fuck, it was so intense my stomach flipped—there it was, that rush of butterflies.

When we finally pulled apart, we were both panting.

Breathing hard.

Our foreheads almost touched.

She was still on my lap.

Her hands on my chest.

My arms around her.

We didn’t say a word.

We just looked at each other, like we didn’t know what we had just done—or what would come next.

I stared at her, my heart pounding like a drum in my chest.
