Seeing her nervous face, Sebastian chuckled and pecked her lips. Stel, who do you think would dare mess with w

Stephanie stayed quiet.

Sebastian ruffled her hair, rolled off, and wrapped his arms around her. “Silly girl, he murmured, his voice dripping with affection and a hint of frustration at her fear.

Stephanie smuggled into his embrace, finding a comfy spot to lean against. She knew there was no way she could poth Sebastian away now, so she just let him have his way.

It had always been like this since they were kids. In her world, Sebastian always had the final say.

He had always been the one calling the shots. Their relationship had reached a point where she no longer felt she could make decisions on her own.

Sebastian kissed her forehead, but it wasn’t enough, not even close. With just a touch, he was already craving more

Stephanie felt the change in him and tensed up. “Sebastian, I’m still hurt, she blurted out, calling him by his name in a panic.

Hearing his name from her lips, Sebastian couldn’t hide the smile spreading across his face. He never thought his name would sound so good coming from her. “I know,” he replied in his deep, smooth voice.

“Then why…” she started, but couldn’t finish. If he didn’t leave soon, things might spiral out of control.

Especially how he acted last night after being drugged, it was awkward yet forceful. It was clear he was just discovering the taste of it all.

Right now, Sebastian would only crave more, probably even beyond his own control.

“It hurt a lot when I just applied medicine,” Stephanie said quietly, seeing that he had no intention of leaving.

Sebastian raised an eyebrow. “So what do you suggest?” His deep voice had a hint of something off–kilter, like he was already struggling to keep himself in check.

“Huh?” Stephanie was confused. Of course, he needed to leave. She was still injured.

She looked up at him with tearful eyes. “I’m scared,” she whispered. But her pitiful expression only seemed to fuel the fire in his eyes.

“You’re such a delicate little thing,” he teased.

Sniffling, Stephanie replied, “It’s because you spoiled me.” She was afraid that if Sebastian got forceful now, she wouldn’t be able to escape.

Sebastian kissed her forehead again. “Yeah, I spoiled you. I spoiled you rotten,” he admitted, including her unru temper, which he’d indulged since they were kids.

“Then go back to your own room.” Stephanie pushed against his chest. There was no way they could sleep together. If they kept going like this, something would definitely go wrong.

She didn’t want to get hurt anymore. But Sebastian still had no intention of leaving. Just as Stephanie was about to insist, he
