Chapter 513 Billionaire's Lies

• As the soft light of the city lights dripped in through the window, creating long shadows on the floor, the tension between them intensified. Saben's smile was gentle, yet there was a undeniable fire behind his eyes as he gazed at Clarisse. His heart pounded, realizing that what they were about to experience transcended the physical. It was all of it—the years spent waiting, regret, love and suffering that had led them here.
• Clarisse met his eyes, her breathing speeding as her fingers ran along the edge of his jaw. She had been waiting for this moment for what felt like an eternity, and now, as they stared at each other, the world just seemed to hold its breath for them alone. The only thing to be heard was the racing of their hearts, both pounding in unison, both aware that tonight would be the beginning of something entirely different.
• Saben's hand moved to the small of her back, drawing her close. His touch was soft and possessive, as if he was attempting to catch up on lost time. She could sense the beat of his heart against his shirt, hard and insistent, mirroring the need rising in her. The air between them vanished instantly, and she felt his body heat surrounding hers.
