On this side, after Maxwell and Mona finished kissing, Mona shyly settled into the passenger seat, not wanting to meet Maxwell's gaze.

At first, the initiative was in her hands. She just wanted a quick kiss. But soon, Maxwell took control, and she found herself completely lost in the moment. He pulled her into the passenger seat and closed the car door.

She thought it was over, but Maxwell leaned in for another kiss, this one even more passionate. It felt like he was trying to consume her entirely. Well, she had started it, so she could only accept it.
