Chapter 318

Even so, when Ashton was lying beside me and hugging me, I could feel his kiss getting more passionate. Obviously, he had been holding it in for a while.

I tried to back off, but I was already on the edge of the bed. Moving more would make me fall, so I pushed him, but he held my hand. I frowned when I noticed his hand was coming up my shoulder. “Ashton..”

“Be good. Don’t be scared.”

I held his hand down. “Sorry, but I can’t.”

He smiled and kissed me more before trying to lure me into it. “It’ll be fine. We can take it slow.”

Realizing that he must have misunderstood me, I was speechless for a moment. Nonetheless, he noticed it a short while later. He looked at me, surprised. “When did this happen?”

“Tonight.” It took all I had to say that.

He went out of the bedroom, leaving me alone in the bed, not knowing what to do. Before I realized it, he had come back with a bowl of ginger carrot soup and a bowl of chicken soup. That surprised me.

“Mrs. Eriksen made some chicken soup for you. Have it before you sleep,” he cooed as he tried to feed me.
