Chapter 1088

The instant their lips met, a wild, pent-up emotion surged through Thaddeus's chest—so fierce it threatened to drown him, pounding straight to his head.

Evadne lay beneath him, her body soft and yielding against the sheets. His kiss was clumsy, hungry, desperate, and she could feel heat rising up through her as his mouth claimed hers. Tears shimmered in her eyes, glistening like dew.

At first, she struggled, her breath coming in erratic gasps-yet it didn't take long for her resistance to melt into longing. She arched her back, small hands clutching the lapels of his sharp suit jacket, and surrendered, kissing him back with matching intensity.

Their mingled breaths formed a symphony of desire.

Thaddeus's dark eyes traced the delicate bridge of her nose, lingered on those luminous eyes, growing deeper and more intense with every heartbeat.

In the hush of the night, their tangled bodies spoke in silent devotion.

Suddenly, the shrill ring of a cellphone shattered the spell.

Both of them startled as if waking from a dream. At that same moment, a jolt of blinding pain ripped through Thaddeus's head, radiating down to his fingertips.
