My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0211

Marcus had to send a message to Camille, letting her know that Valerie had had a bit too much to drink and wasn’t in any condition to go home. Naturally, he didn’t mention What had happened between them. He promised they’d be there carly in the morning to pick up Serenity since they were planning to go out.

What had happened wasn’t just a fleeting encounter he wanted something lasting, just like he was already a part of Serenity’s life.

I know you might not approve, but… His thoughts trailed off as Valerie began to stir, slowly waking up. She sat up, and her eyes landed on Marcus, sitting shirtless on the bed. Her first instinct was to up to cover herself.
