Capítulo 45: Closeness

Natalie stuttered slightly, caught off guard. "I was just checking to see if you were doing it right and won't ruin my vegetables."

Seeing her riled up once more, only prompted him to tease her more.

"Maybe you liked my hands," he suggested with a smirk, "and who knows what else you were thinking."
