This time, Aurora Blaine truly experienced the feeling firsthand...
The first two times she avoided it, and he thought she didn't like it, so he didn't insist. Today, her actions surprised him.
He let go of her until she was almost suffocating.
Aurora Blaine steadied her breath and, with a small hint of complaint in her voice, said, "You crushed my flowers..."
Holding the flowers in her hands, his sudden action caught her off guard, causing the bouquet between them to be somewhat deformed in its wrapping.
Maverick Knight took the flowers from her hands, his deep, hoarse voice tinged with allure, "I'll buy you more later, sweetheart."
He set the bouquet aside, casually tossing it onto a shelf by the entrance, his dark gaze never leaving her throughout the process.
With no flowers between them, he took her hand, intertwining their fingers.
Then, their breaths mingled once more.
...
...
Aurora Blaine partially dried her hair and sat on the sofa playing with her phone.
