Chapter 71 Together

• As our lips part, Liam looks at me with a newfound intensity. He traces my lips with his thumb before leaning in and kissing me again. This time, the kiss is deeper, more passionate, as if a dam has burst between us.
• I run my fingers through his hair, pulling him closer to me. He tastes like wine and warmth, and I can feel the tension between us build with each passing moment. Even before I feel his hands roam my body, I can already feel him hardening against me, and it’s only making my desire ignite in response.
• So, I moan softly into his mouth, especially when his hands slip under my shirt and caress my skin. He lifts me up and carries me to the bed, never breaking the kiss. He lays me down, his fingers deftly unbuttoning my shirt.
