The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1126

Thalassa's heart was a storm-tossed sea as she gazed up into Lysander's deep, enigmatic eyes. In their depths, she could see the swirling tempest of desire he fought to restrain.

It was like that electrifying night five years ago when, amid a symphony of thunder, he pressed her beneath him and sealed her lips crazily as flashes of lightning played over their entwined bodies.

Now, looking into Lysander's sharply chiseled face, Thalassa's emotions catapulted back to that night— she was trembling and panic-stricken, her pulse racing, her body ensnared by an unknown peril.

The only difference was that five years ago, she only faced the peril of her body being conquered. But now it was her heart.

Lysander's hot breath brushed incessantly against Thalassa's face. His powerful presence accelerated her heartbeat and nearly stopped her breath.

His penetrating gaze locked onto her as he noticed the flush that crept over her cheeks. All of a sudden, her feminine scent invaded his senses and brought every cell in his body to life.

His body was beyond his control just like what it did five years ago.

Lysander swallowed hard, leaned down, and captured her lips with precision and force.

"Mmm..." Caught off guard, Thalassa's eyes widened as his lips melded with hers; a tingling sensation spread rapidly through her body and turned her blood into honey.

Lysander's kiss was dominant, intense, a siege upon her senses. Soon, Thalassa's breathing was entirely at his mercy. The air thinned around her. With her free hand, she instinctively pushed against his chest, but the scorching contact made her fingertips twitch and her whole body shudder. Her heart alarmed, and she hastily retreated her hand with fear.

Sensing her sensitivity, Lysander's body ignited with a burning heat. Supporting the back of her head, he kissed her more fiercely. Their breaths mingled heavily in the charged air.

In no time at all, Thalassa was left dazed and breathless; her mind was a foggy haze struggling for air.

Only then did Lysander release her and let their lips part with a lingering connection. His damp mouth traced a path along her cheek to the tender skin behind her ear, his breath teasing her and making her neck twitch. Her breath was so hitched as she gasped for air.
