Chapter 47 Being Honest with Each Other

Before long, we were both naked. Ethan's kiss was more intense than the storm outside. Something felt off about him.

That stormy night, we went wild in the bathroom. I thought I might die from his madness.

Afterwards, Ethan carried me to the bed. The thunder still roared as he pounced on me again.

I didn't know how long it was before he finally collapsed beside me, his breathing slowing down.

In the morning, the pain in my body reminded me of last night's craziness.

I turned to see Ethan's sleeping face close to mine. He looked tired but still handsome.

Knowing it was my first day at work, I carefully moved his arm, trying not to wake him.

As I was fastening my bra, he suddenly grabbed my hand. I turned around, shocked to see him awake.

Seeing his half-exposed chest, I remembered last night and felt anxious. He grabbed my hand, steadied me, and helped me with the clasp.

I quickly got dressed, but he hugged me from behind. Ethan rested his head on my shoulder, his messy hair tickling my face.

"Did I hurt you last night?" His voice was husky.

I didn't answer. From the window reflection, I saw he was completely naked and froze.

He gently kissed my ear, saying, "I'm sorry. I'll be gentle next time."

His touch made me weak, which was frustrating. I turned my face away. "Stop it. It's my first day at work, and I don't want to be late."

He let go and said, "I'll drive you."
