章節 139: Perfectly fine

All the stress and tension that Gavriel had been keeping so tightly constrained inside him was released through a violent shudder as he crushed her hard against him with that one hug. Deep groans and curses escaped from his lips as his shaking fingers slid from her back into her glorious silvery locks. His large palm curved over her skull and then dragged her head back before his mouth moved feverishly over her face, planting hot little kisses wherever it landed.

"Damn it all to hell, Evie. Gods," he whispered as he drew in a shaky breath. She could no longer see any sign of that incredible calmness he was exuding just a while ago. He sounded like a total mess right now, before her as he kept her caged tightly in his arms, as though he had just gone through the scariest moment in his life. 

"Holy hell." He muttered again and Evie lifted her head to look up at him. Seeing his face still frowning with concern, she then lifted her hands and caressed his face.
