Chapter 157 Another Nightmare
“If you didn’t catch my eye, why would I be in a relationship with you?” Quinn said.
“Um… Would you hate me if I did this?” Julius‘ lips moved slightly as he spoke. He pulled her closer to him and leaned his upper body toward her.
His other hand simultaneously wrapped around her waist, as if he was afraid she would create distance between them.
His lips lightly brushed against her lower jaw.
Quinn stiffened, looking into Julius‘ eyes filled with intense longing.
“Quinnie, I want to kiss you,” he murmured. His voice, typically calm and polished, now carried a faint, husky edge.
Quinn blinked.
They were already dating, and more importantly, she had feelings for Julius. Sharing a kiss was perfectly natural.
“If you don’t like it, you can reject me anytime. I won’t force you.” Julius‘ tone sounded more like a humble plea.
Watching his lips, tracing down her jawline, gradually nearing her own, Quinn didn’t push him away.
She could feel that his hand resting lightly on her waist was subtly shaking.
He’s not nervous, is he?
He’s the head of the prestigious Whitethorn family, a man who holds power in Jexburgh. Is he actually nervous about kissing a woman?
His lips gently met hers in a light kiss, filled with such caution, as if he were handling a precious treasure.
But the moment was brief, almost hesitant, as though going any further might cross a sacred line.
Just as he pulled away, Quinn suddenly reached for his collar and leaned forward, taking the lead and kissing him herself.
“Open your mouth.”
Julius was taken aback for a moment, but he obediently opened his mouth nonetheless.
And just like that, she kissed him, in her own unique way.
After the kiss, Julius‘ ears turned a faint shade of red. He stared at Quinn, dumbfounded. “Why?”
“Because you’re my boyfriend. I want to kiss you. Is that reason enough?”
Julius‘ eyes lit up. He felt a rush of sweetness overwhelming his taste buds. Then, a charming smile surfaced at the corners of his lips. “Enough.”
“Can I go back to my room and sleep now?” Quinn asked.
