章節 103: Jealous cubs

«Yet you always see them when you look at me,» Nate whined.

Lara was still in his arms, too comfortable to move away. His eyes were staring back at her, too honest for her to think twice about his words.

«I do see you,» she said. «I do notice you even when I don't want to. It's stronger than me.»

She owed him as much as her sincere feelings, didn't she? She could risk exposing her shameless self. The worst that could happen was him leaving, but he wouldn't have abandoned the pups.

And they were going to date, sooner or later. Was it wrong to feel attracted? Moreover, he was a free man. She wasn't doing anything wrong by playing all her cards with him.

«So, you don't dislike me?» he hummed, his face getting closer to hers.

«Not at all. On the contrary.»

He smiled, stopping his journey to her lips just to take one last glance at her face. She was so beautiful and so patient with him. And she was allowing him so close.
