Bab 168: “Darling... ”

The moment he said that, Elizabeth noticed her cheeks flush in embarrassment. Wasn't it too early in the morning to get reminded of all the dirty things they did last night!? She started to feel unsettled in her stomach as well. Also, why did he have to torture her with his naked torso!? He was being too much. 

"Hum… " she struggled to contain her shyness by quickly flipping her hair to the back of her ears with her hands. It was the messiest it had ever been. Still, she did not regret every emotion his ernest whispers and sensual touches birthed in her during their wild night rendezvous. 

Even though, her emotion at present was such that she was now beginning to see him in some kind of way… like someone who she no longer could hide anything from… completely laid bare to him, she put in her best to keep the affair of her respect for him intact;

"I--hum want to," she halted, doing her best to suppress her sudden desire to snuggle those killer lips of his.
