Chapter 30 Thirty


    As he kissed her deeper, he dropped his hand to her neck, caressing her soft skin, annoying its feel


    beneath his fingers. His hand moved lower to her shoulder, which was bare but for the straps of her


    camisole.


    He went past the straps to her bare arms, stroking her skin lightly. She shivered in his arms, and he


    wondered whether it was a reaction to him or the cold.


    Her hands, which were now clutching to his shoulders tightly, pushed him back and she tried to


    disengage their lips. But he only pulled her closer, now teasing her lips with his tongue. She gasped


    and drew in a breath through her mouth, and it was only then that it urred to him that she was out of


    breath and wanted a break.


    Before he could give her a little space–with full intention of resuming the kiss right after–the two jerked


    apart as the car suddenly skidded to a halt. Jacob quickly wrapped his arms around Isabelle to keep


    her from falling off the seat and red at Kevin.


    “I’m sorry, sir. I almost ran into a cat and had to brake suddenly,” Kevin exined, turning to look at


    him. When he saw the position the two were in, he turned his head away quickly. “We have arrived,” he


    added meekly.


    In the backseat, Jacob could barely control his anger. Things were going so well until the sudden


    braking ruined the mood. “I’ll make sure to deduct fifty percent of your sry to help stray cats,” he shot


    back at his driver.


    At the mention of a sry cut, Kevin met his boss’s eyes in the rearview mirror, but the re that met

    him had him bending his head quickly. He gulped and thought twice aboutining. Quickly, he left


    his seat to go open the backseat, not wanting to displease Jacob anymore.

    After leaving the car, Jacob carried Isabelle up to their apartment and into her room. He ced her


    gently on her bed and then headed to the bathroom to draw her a bath. He figured that a lukewarm


    bath would help her feel better and fall asleep restlessly.


    After setting up the bath, he went back to her bedroom to get her. However, he found that she had


    already fallen asleep. She was no longer mumbling about the temperature or stirring, and her face


    looked serene. Seeing that she was no longer in difort, he decided there was no need to bath her.


    It was alright if she could sleep soundly like that.


    Jacob reached for the nket, meaning to tuck her in. But before he could, he stilled, captivated by her


    face. It was almost unreal that a few minutes ago, he had held that face in his hands and kissed her.


    Her red and swollen lips were all that remained to show what had happened between them.


    He ached to reach forward, touch those lips, maybe give her a goodnight kiss. But he fought against


    the urge. Kevin’scklustre driving might have interrupted the heated moment in the car, but it hadn’t


    put out the fire that had ignited in his veins. Now that he had had a taste of those lips, felt how it was to


    hold her in his arms, he knew it would be difficult to restrain himself around her.


    Sighing, he leaned forward and started covering her with the nket. What he didn’t expect was for her


    to suddenly wrap her hands around his waist and drag him down to the bed.


    He stumbled onto the bed, and before he could make a move, she threw a leg around his hips, trapping


    him like a ko clinging to a tree. He looked at her face in shock only to find that her eyes were still


    closed as she slept peacefully.


    He swallowed hard and thought of how to extricate himself from her hold without awaking her. How


    could she look so serene in her sleep while still tempting him with her actions?


    As he looked down at her, however, his eyes fell on her cleavage, which was exposed in her current


    position, and his brain took a vacation. While he lost all thought, his body reacted immediately.


    Suddenly, it was as if minutes hadn’t passed since they were locked in each other’s arms in the car.


    The desire he had been trying to suppress the past few minutes rushed back, and he groaned as his


    member hardened in his pants.


    Instead of pulling away from her, he was drawn to her sexy figure, and he found himself returning her


    embrace, wrapping his arms around her body. His hands skimmed down the side of her camisole,


    dipping into her slender waist, and touching bare skin at the waist.


    A low groan ripped past his lips as he leaned forward and pressed his lips to her neck, unable to hold


    himself back any longer.
