Jonathan ran his hand through Estelle’s hair and planted a gentle kiss atop her head, nudging Mike, the driver, to pick up the pace.

Mike thought to himself that, given the city traffic, he was doing the best he could.

But when the boss gives you an order, you don’t argue. All you can do is to deploy every driving trick in the book and weave through the traffic like a pro.

Once they arrived at the Bright Commercial Center, Jonathan didn’t bother to wake Estelle. He simply scooped her up and carried her out of the car.

A gift box slipped from her grip, but he caught it without a second thought and took it up with them.

Once getting inside the apartment and closing the door behind them, Jonathan had no reservations left.

He sat Estelle on the entryway cabinet, his fingers tracing her slender waist as their kiss deepened with urgency.

Estelle was exhausted. It wasn’t just Jonathan who had been losing sleep these past ten days. After chatting all night with Magdalen and being rudely awakened at dawn, she’d only managed three hours of shut-eye. The lack of rest throughout the day had taken its toll.

She kissed him back with eyes fluttered closed, not wanting to push him away but also reluctant to emerge from the fog of sleepiness. Languid and charming in her drowsiness, she lingered in that haziness like a dozing cat.

In the darkness, Jonathan’s breathing grew heavier with each breath; his longing had been suppressed for so many days.
