The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 596

His kiss was no longer the domineering, wild passion of the night before. It was gentle, soothing, like a balm.

Thalassa felt her body went soft.

Lysander's large hand cradled the back of her head, holding her pliant body steady.

Kissing her sweet, yielding lips set his blood ablaze.

His hand started to move lower.

Suddenly, the piercing ring of a cell phone broke the silence.

It was Thalassa's phone, vibrating in her pocket.

The cell phone's ring seemed deafening in the intimate, hushed space.

Startled, Thalassa opened her eyes wide. In front of her was Lysander's magnified handsome face. His skin was taut, and each pore was visible. His deep breaths fanned her face, moist kisses peppering her skin, his Adam's apple bobbing.

At that moment, Thalassa was acutely aware of every detail of Lysander's kiss.

The charged atmosphere spread throughout the car.

The incessant ringing of the phone tore at Thalassa's nerves.

Her heart pounded like a jackhammer, her breath hitching.

Thalassa's hands trembled as she tried to push him away.

Sensing her feeble resistance, Lysander nipped at her lips in punishment.

The bite was just painful enough to serve as a lesson but not enough to draw blood.

"Ah..." Thalassa's head spun, the pain making her frown, her discomfort growing.

Just when she thought she couldn't escape him, Lysander released her. His eyes were glistening as he watched her. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, his voice husky, "Answer it."

Thalassa's eyes were misty, her breath shallow. She propped herself up on the car door, half-lying on the car seat in a vulnerable position.
