A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 3223

“Let go of me, Megan. I'll pour you a cup of water.”

Jake had always acted proud in front of Megan, but he had completely lowered his stance at that moment. He tried to pry Megan's arms away from his collar, but that only got her to hold on tighter.

“Don't leave me. Your body is so cold.”

Megan had already exhausted her inhibition during her struggles by the elevator doors. She was also fighting the strong aftereffects of the hard liquor, so at that moment, she was utterly at the mercy of her own instincts.

“Megan, wake up.”

Jake was usually calm and had incredible walls built around his heart. However, when he saw her blushing cheeks and glossy gaze, that wall shattered and caused a ripple in his heart.

He couldn't help reaching out for her, and he wondered what it felt like to caress Megan's soft cheeks.

His hand was hanging midair when he retracted it. I don't want it to happen like this, reminded the rational side of Jake's mind.

Jake was quiet when he sat at the bedside. He closed his eyes and tried to distract himself with other matters, but all his mind showed him was Megan's beauty.

Even Jake was surprised by it. When did she leave such an incredible impression on me?Or maybe... am I just desperate for her to come to rescue me from the emptiness inside and fill my heart? Is that why I am especially attentive to

her?

It didn't matter why Jake felt that way, though. Either reason was enough to surprise him because they hadn't known each other for long. Yet, he had already regarded her as someone from his past, and someone he cared about. He felt especially connected to her and wanted to have all of her and her future.

Jake's mind was in a wreck when he suddenly felt a sting near his ear. It was as if a mosquito had bitten him.

He couldn't help frowning a little. He turned around to look at Megan. She ambushed his lips.

A burning sensation spread from his lips and engulfed his entire body. Jake tried to suppress it, and his long eyelashes trembled a little. He kept his eyes open and looked into Megan's eyes.

Her gaze seemed glazed over. It seemed the drug had caused her lust to overwhelm every other thought and emotion.

No, we can't keep doing this.
