The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 353

Chapter 353

When people started chanting, "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" Alex felt his pulse quicken.

He stared into Sophia's beautiful eyes, captivated by the soft glow on her flawless face.

He loved this woman with every fiber of his being, deeper than he'd ever loved anyone before.

But tonight, she was drunk, vulnerable, and worse-she was supposed to marry someone else in a matter of days.

As much as his heart begged him to kiss her right there, Alex knew he had to do the right thing.

"No," Alex whispered gently, fighting against his own desire.

Instead, he swept Sophia into his arms, lifting her gracefully in a princess carry.

Her delicate frame rested comfortably against his chest, sending warmth through his body.

"I'm taking you back," he said firmly, trying to ignore how good it felt to hold her so close.

Sophia struggled slightly, beating softly against his chest.

"Let me down, Alex! If you don't love me, don't touch me!"

Alex tightened his hold, ignoring her protests.

"I'm not letting you go," he said, stepping toward the street to hail a taxi.

The disappointed crowd around them groaned loudly, their hopes dashed by his refusal.

But Alex wasn't here to please them. His only concern was Sophia.

The taxi pulled up swiftly, and Alex gently placed Sophia in the back seat, intending to let her go alone.

But then he looked at her-her face flushed, eyes half-lidded, lost in a haze of alcohol and emotion.

She was vulnerable.

Too vulnerable. There was no way he could leave her like this, not tonight.

"Where are you headed?" asked the driver.

"The best hotel in Paris!" Sophia shouted drunkenly, leaning heavily against Alex.

"Four Seasons?" the driver clarified.

"Exactly!" Sophia yelled with determination.

Alex raised an eyebrow. "You're staying there?"

Sophia nodded, eyelids fluttering closed as she clung tightly to Alex's arm, refusing to let go.

The ride to the hotel was brief, the city lights passing swiftly.

As they arrived, Sophia stirred slightly and murmured, "Penthouse," barely awake yet holding tightly to Alex's hand.

Alex swept her into his arms once more, holding her in a protective princess carry as he stepped into the opulent lobby of the Four Seasons, every eye turning toward them as if the moment itself belonged in a storybook.
