Chapter 83: Draw Me
Lilia was silent, stunned by what he had just said.
Had he just called her his beloved? She could not think straight.
The words echoed in her mind, tangling with her thoughts, making it impossible to focus. Her heart pounded in her chest, the heat of the moment settling over her like a thick fog.
Before she could process it, Zethan pulled her into another kiss, his tongue teasingly brushing against her lips before slipping deeper, tapping her tongue and licking. The slow, deliberate movement sent a shiver down her spine.
"Mmgh~"
Lilia moaned against his lips as he deepened the kiss, her body reacting on its own. That sound—soft yet intoxicating—did something to him. His brain shut down at the melodic sound that left her lips. It was like a song only he could hear, a tune that played just for him.
His hands followed, exploring the soft skin of her bare curvy waist before sliding up to cup and squeeze her breast. His touch was both gentle and possessive, sending waves of heat through her body.
Then, reality came crashing down.
Her eyes widened in shock.
She couldn’t believe what she was doing. The kitchen, of all places, was where she had let herself melt into his touch. Just as the weight of the moment hit her, Zethan suddenly pulled away.
"What’s wrong?" she asked breathlessly, her lips still tingling from the kiss.
