Zephyr’s eyes contained nothing but the delicate girl.

Cordelia gasped, blushing red. She was shy and afraid as she pleaded softly, “Honey, no!”

Zephyr’s gaze was delirious with a smirk.

The ardor spread like wildfire in the room. As the moonlight spilled through the floor-to-ceiling window, it illuminated the clothes scattered on the floor as well as the two bodies on the bed.

Zephyr slowly cracked his eyes open early in the morning. Seeing that Cordelia was still sound asleep in his arms, he could not help smiling and kissing her lips. He carefully pulled his arm out and got out of bed to call the reception, asking for breakfast to be sent to their room.

Cordelia turned around lazily on the bed, the space next to her jolting her out of her sleepy daze.

“Darling?”

She got out of bed to look around barefooted. As Zephyr came in from the balcony, she walked right into his embrace.

“What’s the matter?” Zephyr smiled, stroking her hair. “Why are you in such a hurry to look for me?”

Cordelia scrunched her nose and looked up at him judgingly.

“Did you smoke on the balcony?”

Well… Zephyr felt beads of sweat forming on him.

He tried with a chuckle. “Honey, I’m already smoking a lot less now. I know that you don’t like the smell…”

“It’s not that I don’t like it. Smoking isn’t beneficial to your health at all!” Cordelia nagged seriously—Zephyr let himself get nagged as seriously too.
