Xia Yuqing swallowed hard. Her heart pounded in her chest, torn between wanting to have the upper hand and the burning need he had awakened in her. The intensity of his stare made her feel exposed, vulnerable… but not afraid.
The anticipation, the hunger in his gaze—it was all so overwhelming.
Her fingers clenched the sheets beneath her. "I… I don't know."
Lu Jinchen exhaled, his lips curving into something dark and knowing. His hands slid up her thighs, slow, deliberate, his fingertips tracing featherlight circles against her heated skin. "Let me help you decide," he whispered, voice dripping with sinful promise.
Then, he pressed a lingering kiss to the inside of her thigh, his tongue teasing, his breath hot against her flesh. A violent shudder racked her body, her pulse hammering as desire coiled tight within her.
"Do you like this?" Another kiss, higher this time, his teeth grazing lightly.
"Y-yes..." she replied breathlessly.
