Chapter 35: Tribulation
Zach was dumbstruck by what Keira said and did.
Her lips touched his, but then she suddenly passed out in his arms and he was made to quickly catch Keira’s body to not let it slip onto the floor.
For the first time in his life, Zach did not know what to do.
For him, dealing with Keira at that moment seemed even harder than creating a strategy for a battle.
It was because of the handcuffs. He did not know whether to remain in their current position, where he was hugging Keira, or lay her down on the sofa.
The troublesome thing was that they were handcuffed, so it was impossible to properly carry Keira.
He looked around, but then he remembered that the key was in Keira’s purse, which was at the other side of the table.
His phone was in his right pocket. If he tried to get it, Keira’s body would slide down.
’Damn,’ he cursed as he studied how awkward they look right now. Even the buzzer to call the waiter was far and out of reach.
Zach sighed. He was not comfortable in their position at all. Keira was so close that he could feel everything about her, even her same scent from before which seemed to not left him.
Meanwhile, Keira’s face was buried on Zach’s chest, so the latter could not see how wicked her smile was.
