Suddenly, the atmosphere transformed into a hazy ambiguity, a misty veil
descending upon them. Willow's gaze met Jasper’s, and the man instinctively
drew her into his embrace, a protective gesture against her potential fear.
Then, her grip tightened around his waist, a true reflection of her genuine fright.
In that instant, their faces hovered mere inches apart as the rhythm of their
breaths was a tangible bridge between them.
Her eyes and brows glistened as if touched by the kiss of rain, emanating a liquid
luminescence that momentarily stole his breath away. Despite the dimness of the
room, his eyes burned with undeniable intensity. At this moment, her breaths
became shallow as she wrapped her arms around his neck and lifted her face
slightly as a silent invitation for him to kiss her.
Meanwhile, Jasper struggled to restrain the tempest of emotions coursing
through him. Amidst the dim light, his tall stature enveloped Willow in the corner
of the room, akin to a wolf asserting its claim over territory, resolute in not letting
her leave and preventing others from prying.
A nervous gulp traced down her throat, ensnared by the heady symphony of
pheromones that enveloped them both, drawing her inexorably closer to the
man’s inviting neck. On the other hand, his breath hitched, his resolve finally
yielding as he gently cupped her chin, guiding her with tenderness as his slender
lips met her flushed ones.
After having suppressed their desires for too long, this kiss erupted with fervor as
soon as it began. However, Willow was slightly taken aback as an undercurrent
of sweetness and surprise swept through her, overwhelming any uncertainty.
Every fiber of her being was tightly held in the man’s embrace as his passionate
kiss consumed her. In this corner, amidst the dimness, they carved out a small
world-a sweet sanctuary untouched by others.
Time appeared to lose its hold as their lips intertwined until an inquisitive stray
cat leaped onto the windowsill outside, breaking the enchantment and capturing
the attention of Jasper, who held the blushing young woman in a fervent
embrace.
As she was pressed against his sturdy chest, her face turned a shade of pink as
her breaths quickened. She spoke softly, “What's the matter?”
“Meow!” The little cat outside seemed equally startled, meowing frantically. Then,
he sighed. and said, “Just a little cat.”
Willow's lips curved into a smile, but their haven was abruptly illuminated again,
exposing their intimate moment. Flushed with embarrassment, she buried her
face into Jasper’s embrace, feeling self-conscious after the intensity of their kiss.
However, his fingers caressed the back of her head as his chin lightly grazed her
hair. A silent sigh escaped him, a mixture of contentment and shared
vulnerability.
At that moment, Willow's phone rang. Jasper gently released his grip on her on
the couch, saying, “You should take that call!” With a quizzical intrigue, she
contemplated who might have called her at this hour. Retrieving the phone, she
was taken aback to find her father on the other end.
“Hello, Dad!" Her words flowed from her with a poised composure. “Willow, where
are you?" Her father’s voice held a hint of concern.
“I'm... at a friend's house.”
“Come home early.” “Dad, is something wrong?” Willow immediately sensed that
her father was keeping something from her.
“I just received a notification that a group of mafia members has entered the
country and has targeted the family,” Elliot divulged. At this, her expression grew
serious. “Okay, Dad, I'll come home early.” After hanging up the phone, she
turned to the man behind her. “My dad wants me to come home early.”
“All right, I'll take you home,” Jasper said, guessing what her father had
discussed with her. “When will we be able to meet again?” Willow asked with
reluctance.
