Chapter 126: Her Heart Raced *
When the trace of warmth touched her lips, his lips pried open her teeth, and his slightly warm tongue entered her mouth as he kissed and sucked on it. A warm sensation blossomed in her entire body.
Abigail widened her eyes, and her breathing stopped at that moment. Her hand clenched on her lap, and the strength in her body seemed to have been pulled away in an instant. Even the gap between breaths was wholly taken away.
Her heart raced like never before, even when she was still together with Ryland.
The air in Abigail’s chest was practically squeezed out. She wanted to breathe, even if she had to put some distance between them. However, Sawyer’s hold on her head made it difficult to pull away from him.
The gradual lack of oxygen made Abigail force herself to push him away. Just as she felt that she was about to faint from the lack of oxygen, Sawyer finally gave up on his deep, passionate kiss. The warm tip of his tongue gently swept across her lips before he slowly released her lips.
After the intense kiss, she felt like she was drowning. Her watery eyes locked on him as she tried to catch her breath. Her heart raced again when he gently rubbed his thumb over her unusually cherry-colored lips.
"I miss you so much, Abby," He whispered, their foreheads touching. "I’m terrified of what happened to you last night. All I can think about is flying back to see you. Every second, minute, and hour that passes feels like torture..."
Hearing his words, Abigail could imagine how stressed he had been the night before. "I’m sorry—"
Sawyer gently pressed his lips against Abigail’s to cause her words to linger on the tip of his tongue. She felt the warmth of his tongue dancing in her mouth once again. Rather than resist, she returned his kiss with equal passion.
