Chapter 226: Too brutal
Maxim shrugged a shoulder, trying to appear calm while he studied her expression. It was not that he was taking advantage of her but it was just he was too mesmerized to keep his eyes, hands, and feelings to himself.
If given a chance, he would plaster her to him and never let go.
He did not how she felt about certain small things like sleeping together, waking up to the sight of each other’s face, stealing some time out for some random dates, or just plainly having a meal together. To him, they were all a privilege.
There was a time he held so many dissatisfactions with his life.
Back then, he had known she was special but he did not think that she was all that he wanted. He lived every day with his ambitions and he knew the things he wanted and the things he had to get in the future.
Yet now, as he watched her glare at him while trying to fight the small smile threatening to break on her face, he felt like he would willingly give up anything and everything for this woman. Just to wake up to the sight of her adorable glare, sweet smile, or her confused face, he was more than willing to flip his whole life around.
Those urges were so intense that they shook him, and terrified him that he would no longer be the same without her again.
And the thought of it suffocated his chest...
All those negative thoughts dispersed in thin air when Diana cupped his face and kissed his lips softly.
As the blanket fell, he could feel her lush curved against his body and the scent of roses enveloped his senses.
But her kiss was too short. Too fleeting.
