The sound of rushing water came from the bathroom.

Celine was in the middle of her shower.

Adam stood by the window, which he had opened to let the cool night air sweep in, hoping it would cool down the restless heat burning in his chest.

But the fire within him burned even stronger when he thought of Celine's mature, seductive figure.

Memories of those passionate nights they shared three years ago came flooding back, making his self-control waver.

He missed her terribly.

Soon, the sound of running water stopped. Adam closed the window just as the bathroom door opened.

Celine walked out.

Since the sleepwear from earlier was completely inappropriate, she had picked out one of Adam's white dress shirts from the cabinet inside.

The oversized shirt hung loosely over her petite, curvy frame, leaving her legs bare with only a pair of white slippers on her feet. Her long, dark hair was slightly damp, cascading over her shoulders.

She looked like she'd just stepped out of a dream-an irresistible ambrosia.

Upon noticing Adam's staring, Celine immediately glared at him. "What are you looking at? If you don't stop, I'll gouge your eyes out."

Adam smirked. "Why so fierce?"
