The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 83

Chapter 85

As Sophia and Alex lay side by side on the bed, a pillow barrier neatly dividing the space between them, an uneasy silence settled in the room.

"Sophia," Alex began softly, breaking the quiet.

"We've been sharing passionate love, and I've seen all of you. Don't you think this barrier is pointless?"

She didn't respond.

"Isn't this a bit childish? We're both adults."

Still, no answer came.

"Are you already asleep?" he whispered, his tone tinged with a hint of teasing.

Sophia fought the urge to reply, nearly blurting out, 'Yes, so please be quiet,' but she remained steadfast, pretending to be asleep.

"Alright then," Alex murmured after a moment.

"By the way, the medallion you returned to me... it's the only connection I have to my parents. Thank you for that."

Her heart softened at his sincerity.

Raised to always express gratitude, she felt a tug to respond but resisted, keeping up her facade.

After another pause, Alex spoke again.

"Sophia, the truth is, I'm actually quite wealthy and influential. If you ever need anything, just let me know. I could help make your dreams come true."

She rolled her eyes internally. “There he goes again,' she thought. 'Always bragging.'

Suddenly, Alex began to recite softly:

"We are ever the aloof and silent lovers,

passing each other in dreams."
