Sylvia's POV:
The temperature in the narrow space grew hotter. Rufus and I were wrapped in a tight embrace, and I could hear his rhythmic heartbeat ringing in my ears.
Rufus put his arms around my waist and pressed his forehead against mine.
"Why wasn't I able to smell your scent?"
I raised my head and shook the bell around my neck. "Because this bell can hide one's scent from even their mate."
Rufus gently touched the bell and smiled. "Hmm... Interesting."
I remembered what happened a while ago and how Rufus' men might have seen me in the outfit. My face flushed with embarrassment. "Don't laugh. I'm so embarrassed. It's all your fault."
Rufus touched my head gently. "Don't worry. No one saw you."
I looked at him and pouted. However, his comfort made me feel better.
Rufus pulled me into his arms again and whispered, "Let's go out."
I leaned forward and pressed my head against his chest. "Why? It's nice here. Just you and me." Rufus chuckled and stroked my hair. "It would be more comfortable outside."
I understood what he meant. A blush flamed my cheeks. "Isn't it more convenient to talk here? We can hear each other even if we speak in a low voice," I said, feigning innocence.
"It's dark in here. I want to see your dress. Everything happened too fast. I couldn't see it properly," Rufus whispered in my ear.
"No. I'm going to change it."
With that, I tried standing up. But Rufus pulled me into his arms. "Then let's do it here."
"Are you crazy? How can we..." Before I could finish speaking, he pressed his lips against mine.
His body ground against mine, making the bell on my body chime. I wrapped my arms around his neck and straddled his crotch. I couldn't resist rubbing against his erection.
