Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1461

Cornelia was a whole lot shorter than Jeremy, so when she was trying to dry his hair, she had to stand on her tiptoes, just about brushing her nose against the corner of his mouth.

He shifted his head slightly, and his lips landed on the tip of her nose. The sudden affection startled Cornelia, who was focused on drying his hair, and she instinctively tried to back away. But Jeremy was having none of that. He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her into his embrace.

Cornelia blushed and gently pushed him away. "I haven't finished drying your hair. Stop it."

"I just want to hold you, kiss you," Jeremy said, his head dipped, soaking in her scent, finding her lips, and pressing a gentle kiss on them.

It was a soft kiss. Cornelia felt as though a feather had brushed against her lips, ticklish. After what seemed like forever, he pulled away. His voice was so rich and velvety as he said her name, "Cornelia..."

Cornelia loved it when he said her name. It was like the most beautiful note in the world coming from his mouth, not just pleasing to the ear but intoxicating.d2

She snuggled into his arms, her face upturned and looking absolutely gorgeous. "What's up?"

Her cheeks were flushed, her voice sweet as honey. Unable to resist, Jeremy kissed her again.

A kiss was not enough, he wanted more but he knew that she had just had a c-section and they couldn't make love. Jeremy suppressed all the urges rushing through him. "I'll take another shower."

As he was about to leave, Cornelia grabbed his arm, her cheeks instantly red. "Are you really uncomfortable?"

Jeremy's voice was a bit husky, "I'm fine."

Cornelia looked at him. "Can I... help you with that..." She looked absolutely mortified as the words came out. Thankfully, the lighting in the room was dim, so he probably couldn't see it clearly.
