Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 267

I felt like my whole body was on fire. It was as if I had a fever. I recalled scenes from the last time I teased him and remembered what Lisa had said as I looked at his restrained, almost ascetic face. "Brandon, have you ever slept with another woman?" Even though he had said he never had a girlfriend, I decided to ask again just to be sure.

Brandon's gaze deepened. "No."

That word made my heart tremble. "Do you want to?"

His jaw tightened, and the next moment, my vision became dark as I felt the overwhelming sensation of his lips pressing against mine. By the time he was breathing heavily, I already had my answer.

But instead of continuing, he pressed his forehead against mine and said, "How long are you going to test me? Or do you just want to torture me?"

Seeing his suppressed desire and the way he clearly wanted me but was fighting to hold back, I cupped his face. "Do you really want this? Is this desire purely for me?"

As I asked these questions, I was once again reminded of how deeply Chris' casual words had hurt me when he said he wasn't interested in me.

"Yes," Brandon breathed heavily, "only for you."

Upon hearing this, I closed my eyes and felt that something in my heart had let go.
