This contrast between his usual abstinence and the fiery words he now spoke created a stark and alluring temptation.

His breath teased her car, causing her sensitive skin to flush.

Matthew’s eyes darkened quickly as his fingertip touched her face, experiencing the expected softness.

As his lips were about to meet hers, Aurelia pushed him away.

It was easy to get mesmerized by his allure. Though she felt a bit dazed under his gaze, she wasn’t ready

“I haven’t showered yet. I’ll go shower. You… you go enjoy the hot spring first,” Aurelia stammered, pushing Matthew out of the bathroom without daring to look at him.

Matthew, sull caught in a wave of desire, was suddenly pushed out.

It was like she was guarding against a thief.

His half–lidded eyes still held traces of desire as he looked at the locked door.

Normally, she seemed fierce and bold, quick to praise herself, but the next moment, she retreated into her shell.

She had agreed to his proposal that afternoon without hesitation, probably not realizing what being a real couple entailed.

Matthew’s mind conjured up images of Aurelia’s flushed cheeks and trembling eyelashes, causing his Adam’s apple to bob once more.
