When Asher focused again, the small table was fully laden.

Stir–fried greens, beef, fragrant white rice, and a bowl of soup.

“You’ve made so much,” Asher said with a gentle smile. “What kind of soup is this?”

“Chicken soup with Chinese yam.”

Thalia lifted the bowl, carefully blowing on a spoonful before offering it to Asher. “Try it.”

Asher smiled, lowering his gaze, but suddenly his expression froze.

“What happened to your hand?”

Thalia’s right index finger had a blister.

She tried to hide it, but it was too late. “I… just burned myself a bit in the kitchen. It’s nothing, just a small

blister.”

Asher’s eyes reddened. “Does it hurt?”

Thalia shook her head. “Not at all.”

After sipping the soup, Asher gently took her wrist, lowering his head to softly blow on the injured spot.

After a few moments, he looked up at her, his eyes filled with concern. “You’re lying. Burns always hurt.”

Thalia’s eyes reddened at the corners. “It really doesn’t hurt. Compared to your injury, this is nothing.”

Asher reached up to softly pinch her cheek. “When you’re hurt, I feel it too. Even a small injury is too

much.”

Thalia pressed her lips together, her eyelashes fluttering as she inadvertently slipped into a softer tone. “Asher…”

Her gentle voice was impossible for Asher to resist.

He pulled her closer, kissing her smooth forehead, her flushed cheeks, and finally her soft lips.
