Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1058

King gently ruffled Isaac's hair, his mood light enough to bring a faint smile to his lips.

"Go ahead and eat. I'll be down soon."

Isaac scanned the room one more time, then nodded slightly. Once the child and the sleek panther had left, King shut the door and returned to the bedside. The person in the bed was cocooned under the blanket, leaving no gaps.

Brielle didn't move, wishing she could just disappear at that moment. But remembering her purpose, she reluctantly extended a hand to grasp his wrist. "Let's finish this."

She threw off the blanket only to find the man had fallen asleep on the bed. A spark of excitement flashed in Brielle's eyes. She quickly propped him up, caressing his hand against her cheek.
