Chapter 560
She didn’t need to say it. Rowan had already made up his mind that he would treat this child as his own.
He would never treat it poorly just because it wasn’t his blood.
Completely unaware that they were on entirely different pages, Elissa was about to say more when the man locked his blazing dark eyes on her. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he coaxed, “When did you sneak out to buy this? Trying to surprise me?”
Flushed red, Elissa pushed against him with all her might, but he didn’t budge an inch.
Staring at him like she was on fire, she shot him a glare. “I didn’t buy it myself! And… and it wasn’t meant to surprise you!”
It was meant to, originally.
But right now… she had genuinely just forgotten to take it off!
“Really?”
Rowan didn’t believe a word of it. Gripping her slender shoulder with one hand and cradling the back of her head with the other, he kissed her hard and deep, leaving no room for argument. Pulling back just enough to let their breaths mingle, he asked, “If it wasn’t to surprise me, then who was it for?”
“I go abroad for a few days, and you’ve fallen in love with someone else?” he demanded playfully.
“Who fell in love with someone else?”
Elissa glared at him. Just as she was about to explain, he seized on her words.
He smiled with dark amusement, like a fox that had caught its prey, leaning in closer. “If you didn’t fall for someone else, then you still love me, right?”
Under the dim, amber glow of the wall sconce, his sharp, striking features were cast in deep shadows. The way he smiled carried a lazy, seductive magnetism.
Having grown so comfortable at home, his shirt collar was open, giving teasing glimpses of his lean, muscular chest with his every movement.
The air in the room was saturated with an aggressive, masculine tension.
Hearing his words, Elissa’s heart trembled. She wasn’t going to be stubborn about this. Meeting his gaze with clear, watery eyes, she gave it to him straight. “Rowan, I’ve never loved anyone else.”
“Not in the past, and definitely not in the future…”
The rest of her words, along with her lips, were eagerly swallowed down by the
man.
Hot…
His entire body, even his breath, was scorching hot. Elissa felt like she was burning up.
She didn’t know how much time had passed when a sudden coolness hit her skin.
Her loungewear was stripped away, and the red lace lingerie soon hit the floor with a wet shatter, radiating a tension so thick it would make. anyone blush just looking at it.”
He had never been this desperate. He teased her relentlessly, leaving a trail of fiery marks across her skin, yet he dragged out the anticipation.
When his hand trailed lower, brushing against something even hotter, Elissa nearly broke down. Her delicate fingers clung to his arm as she whimpered a plea.
Her voice was so soft Rowan almost missed it.
When he finally caught her words, a shudder ran through him, the lust in his eyes impossible to hide. “Are you sure?”
“Mhm…”
Elissa was dying of embarrassment, but she truly missed him too. Her voice was barely a whisper “The baby is stable
Astong as you aren too rough, it’ll be fine.”
That night, Rowan carved her words into his mind.
He wasn’t too rough.
But it was wild.
Entirely, utterly wild.
The next morning, Elissa woke up feeling utterly drained. The memory of last night hit her, and she stiffened the moment she met the gaze of the man beside her
Noticing her tense expression, Rowan gently stroked her hair. “Uncomfortable?”
He had lost a bit of control last night.
But he was sure he hadn’t hurt her.
Elissa pressed her lips together. “N-No.”
On the contrary, despite her shyness, she had to admit it felt incredible.
He wasn’t the type of man to only care about his own release. Every single time, he
made sure she was fully satisfied first.
