The Love From Vengeance

63: ONCE AGAIN

ARIEL’S POV

The day had gotten dark, and here I was, sitting down in Luke’s bedroom, clad in my soft and comfortable night robe. The wedding had finally come to an end, and I was once again Luke’s wife. I was back to the billionaire.

Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Luke emerged from the steam–filled bathroom, his body adorned only with a towel snugly wrapped around his waist. Drops of water went down his drenched hair, giving it a tousled, seductive appearance.

The sight of his well–sculpted abs peeking through the fabric of the towel was undeniably appealing. In that instant, he exuded a captivating charm that was hard to resist.

Luke’s presence in the room was magnetic. His captivating gaze locked with mine, and a mischievous smile tugged at the corners of his lips. The allure of his rugged masculinity was impossible to ignore.

But I quickly turned my face away. What the hell was I thinking? I shouldn’t start taking my mind too far.

I glanced at Luke once again, and he was still staring at me. I don’t know, but it seems like he’s waiting for something to happen. What in the world was going on in that mind of his?

At the moment, he had the looks, the charm, everything, but I was trying my best not to fall for his trap.

One glance at him, and his broad shoulders were flawless. He gave me that million–dollar smile, but no way. I wasn’t going to let his looks control me.

But honestly, it was really hard to withstand. He was indeed a beauty to behold, with those dreamy eyes and a body like a god. It had been a long time since I had seen his chest, and I was quite stunned. Lost in this beauty now.

As Luke took some steps forward, I turned my face away, not wanting to get swayed by his

looks.

“I thought you were sleeping,” Luke said, standing in front of a mirror. He dried his hair up with a small towel, and he flung it away.
