Chapitre 169: Just a married couple alone in a cave

"Yes, I'm here," She replied. Her pupils were dilated in the semi-darkness, and he stepped towards her. Now was not the time for anything more, but surely, a kiss wouldn't be out of line. She was so beautiful…

"At least I can't break this world," She whispered just as his lips covered hers. They were as alluring and warm as in the dreams, and at least twice as intoxicating.

Trace cradled her gently against him, testing out the waters of this new real-world physical contact.
