Camila's face relaxed when she heard the price, letting out a sigh of relief. She brightened up, a playful grin spreading across her face.
“Phew, I was so worried! If that bracelet had cost thousands, I’d be too scared to wear it. I’d be heartbroken if I scratched it.”
Connor watched her mischievous expression and couldn’t resist giving her nose a gentle pinch, chuckling. “Silly girl, it’s just jewelry. Nothing is worth more than you.”
Camila nodded, her face glowing with a sweet smile.
Connor gazed at her for a few moments. “Can I get a hug?” he asked, arms open wide, playfully whining, “I need to recharge.”
Camila laughed, shaking her head.
Connor raised an eyebrow, stretched out his arms, and pulled her into a warm embrace, lowering his head to softly kiss her neck.
Camila felt a tingling sensation shoot through her body. She pushed lightly against Connor, surprised, her cheeks turning pink.
“Connor!”
He didn’t stop, leaving a visible mark on her neck before he finally pulled away, looking satisfied.
Camila glared at him, slightly annoyed. “What are you doing?”
Connor released her, a triumphant smile spreading across his face. He found her slightly angry expression utterly adorable.
Camila shot him a look and headed to the bathroom. In front of the mirror, she saw the mark on her neck left by Connor. She felt a mix of annoyance and a strange sweetness.
When Camila came out of the bathroom, Connor was leaning against the wall, looking smug.
