I almost smile, taking out the carton to heat it up, only to find that the container is still hot. I ce the


    bag down, tempted to go question him why he left it, but am I ready to see him again?


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    It’ste too… but he’s obviously awake since the container is hot.


    Making up my mind, I quickly walk to the patio door, frowning when I look at the lock. It’s changed. He


    must have changed it… it looks far more secure now, and I noticed the sensors on the window frame.


    Better security…


    My heart thuds as I turn the key that’s in the door and step out onto the balcony, walking over to his


    side.


    Knocking on the door, I wait. The lights are off, but I can see the outline of a man sitting on the sofa, his


    head resting back. My heart races as I take in his denim jeans, his open jacket and once again, he’s


    shirtless underneath….


    Great.


    I look away as he walks over to the window and opens it. The first thing I remember is him leaving that


    night. Our argument shing in my mind once again, I said things I shouldn’t have, but so did he…


    “Did youe just to see my face?” he asks quietly.


    I purse my lips,ing back to the present.


    “I


    “No. I’ve seen your face far too many times.” I retort, crossing my arms. wasn’t sure if the food was a


    test or something. I mean, is it poisoned? Am I meant to be on alert?”


    “No, it’s just food,” he replies as if that was obvious and I frown, “One point for trying to impress me.”


    My cheeks burn as I stare up at him, trying not to look at his delicious abs that are a distraction. “I


    wasn’t. I don’t think I need to try to impress you, anyway.” I retort, tossing my hair off my face.


    “You don’t.”


    I look back at him sharply and he’s leaning against the door frame, looking annoyingly fine.


    “I thought as much.” I hum, ncing off to the side. “But it seems you might be trying to impress me… I


    mean, being so considerate and buying me food? I didn’t


    pin you as such a thoughtful guy.”


    But even though I’m trying to y it off, his intense gaze isn’t helping with this chemistry between us.


    “I’m not, but I don’t think my own way would work,” he replies, his voice low and deep, one that sends


    shivers of delight through me.


    “Oh yeah? What exactly is your way?” I ask softly, cocking a brow.


    His eye flickers blue as he pushes himself away from the doorframe. “How about I show you?”


    Suddenly his hands wrap around my waist, and I’m yanked into the room and pushed up against the


    wall beside the door.


    I gasp, as his body presses against mine, sending intense sparks through me, my entire bodying


    alive, and I automatically grab onto his shoulders, feeling giddy, aware of every part of his body against


    mine.


    “Zade…”


    “I’m not done…” he whispers and before I can even reply, his lips collide with mine, making my eyes fly


    open, but it’s only for a second as I melt into his touch, my mind going nk as wave after wave of


    pleasure dances through my entire body. The intense connection between us is stronger than any


    maic pull I have ever experienced.


    A sinful moan leaves my lips and I’m somehow kissing him back. He tastes of coffee and roasted


    hazelnuts and… I want more.


    His arms wrap around my waist, drawing us impossibly close, his lips move against mine as if starved


    of something for far too long, and time itself seems to momentarily cease to exist, and with a damning


    realisation, it hits me that I’m kissing him – kissing Zade Toussaint.


    And it feels so damn good.
