Jeslyn could feel his breath fanning her flushed face. The palpitation of her heart grew louder and faster as she anticipated his next point of action.

Jeslyn didn’t know why she felt relaxed in his arms. She didn’t know why her body was reacting this way, but all she knew was that she loved this and wanted him to go further.

She slowly closed her eyes as excitement washed over her in preparation for her first kiss. She felt his face getting closer and closer. His pointed nose brushed against hers and Jeslyn’s heart erupted into

chaos.

The thumping of her heart went for a roller coaster as the pattern distorted. It no longer beat in rhymes but was chaotically beating against her chest.

As the tip of his lower lip touched hers, an electrifying feeling coursed through her veins, making Jeslyn shudder against Maverick.

Maverick paused his action for a moment as his brows creased again. His hold on Jeslyn’s waist tightened. He felt her hold on his shirt as she fisted a part of the black shirt.

Maverick’s face darkened with every reaction Jeslyn was subconsciously showing to his touch. Why do they react alike? 2

Maverick broke his resolve and parted her soft lips with his.

Jeslyn gave him the same feeling. The sensation he felt when he was with that girl. Jeslyn had the same reaction when he teased her lips. Her reaction was also the same when he patted her lips. 6 As Maverick compared Jeslyn to the lady in his memory, his hold on Jeslyn’s waist tensed even more. Jeslyn moaned into his mouth, making Maverick go wild with emotions. He picked Jeslyn off the floor and walked to the couch.

Jeslyn wrapped her arms around his neck as she received the best kiss of her life. (2

Eh? She had never kissed before. 2

She never thought her first kiss would be this wonderful and never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that this cold demon was this good!

The feeling was overwhelming and the kiss wasn’t enough to quench her thirst. She needed more and all of him.

Maverick had thought his carnal feelings had died along with that woman’s disappearance until now. The reason he made the rule that Jeslyn could have his body as his wife was firstly, to confirm his doubt and secondly, to test if she can get his body to react to her, and here it was, doing more than Jeslyn was doing. 1)

Their kisses got heavy and demanding as the beast that had been locked out reared its head in Maverick, ready to cut the chains. Just when the hand roaming the crook of Jeslyn’s neck got to her chest, a soft knock was heard from the door. 2

Maverick paused and raised his head. His eyes were bloodshed, accompanied by desire. He turned to look at the door. The knock didn’t sound again, but he knew someone was there.

From the small screen on the door, Valen was standing outside with one hand in his pocket and the other behind him.

Maverick got off Jeslyn and glanced at her trying to seat up, then he said while brushing his shirt, “We are consummating our wedding tonight,” before and walked to his desk. 3

Jeslyn was left dumbfounded as she stared unblinkingly at him.

“C-consummate?!” she asked with her mouth forming an ‘O’, still Maverick ignored her to go pick up the remote to the door.

Valen burst into the room the second the door cracked open.

“You kept me waiting outside for 1 minute and 5 seconds and… What are you doing here?”

Valen was a little taken aback when he saw Jeslyn. He thought she was still sleeping and that was his reason for coming here.

Jeslyn’s excited heart heated up when she saw Valen. She had first gone to Valen’s room before coming here, but couldn’t find him anywhere, then a servant told her that Valen left the mansion. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Jeslyn put aside what her husband just said, got up, and strolled to Valen with her reddened face. She tried to touch the boy but he took a step back in a guarded manner.

Jeslyn sighed. She forgot they were enemies.

“Report got to me that you didn’t stop taking revenge on me when I was unconscious,” Jeslyn said.

“So,” Valen didn’t deny it.

“Do you know what happens to such children?” Jeslyn asked with a small smile forming on her lips. “What has that got to do with me?” Valen asked while his injured hand was still behind him.

“They are made to do the laundry…”

“You ungrateful weakling!” Valen yelled.

Jeslyn got a fright from his outburst. However, Maverick only glanced at Valen without saying anything.

“Did you just call me names?”

Valen rolled his eyes before he turned to look at his father who was writing.

“Dad, I’ll take my leave now,”

Maverick raised a brow, then shifted his gaze to Jeslyn before he flattened his lips. It was clear that he figured out why his son came to him, so he’s returning since Jeslyn was ok.

Hearing what Valen said, Jeslyn pulled Valen’s injured hand from behind his back and looked at the neatly wrapped hand. Jeslyn felt tears welling in her eyes but stubbornly didn’t shed them.

“Does it hurt?” Jeslyn asked in a soft voice.

Valen pursed his lips, but instead of answering, he tried to pull the hand back but couldn’t.

“This happened because of me, I’m so sorry,” Jeslyn sincerely apologized. She looked at the child’s stone-cold face but saw no pain in his eyes.

Jeslyn instinctively pulled the boy closer and hugged him tightly, surprising Valen who went stiff.

Maverick looked at them but ignored them. However, he was anticipating an outburst.

Valen hates body contact, especially with women, and his disgust for women who hugged him was over the top.

Valen once soaked himself in a bathtub of hot water filled with disinfectant because a lady he detested hugged and kissed his forehead.

That lady happened to be Piper, his Aunt, but still, Valen didn’t tolerate her or even pretended to be ok. 1

The moment Piper let him go, Valen took off his coat and threw it at Piper before running into the car to go home and disinfect himself. 1

Now that Jeslyn has done the same, what would be Valen’s reaction?
