When she saw Abraham suddenly pull away, she froze, her round, dewy eyes staring at him, looking pitiful and helpless.

Abraham’s warm fingers brushed the corner of her eyes. “Save that look for later,” he said in a low, suggestive voice.

“Huh?” Stella blinked, still a little dazed.

Abraham sighed, exasperated. Without another word, he got up and quickly left the room.

But as he turned. Stella caught a glimpse of him tugging his shirt down–almost deliberately as if trying to cover something…
