She melted into the rare tranquility and comfort, letting herself fully relax. Connor watched her, his heart aching with tenderness at how tired she looked.
He moved closer, crouching gently beside her and gazing at her with warmth in his eyes. Feeling his presence, Camila slowly opened her eyes and met his.
"Feeling worn out?" Connor asked softly, concern evident in his voice. Camila nodded slightly. She barely parted her lips when Connor's gently pressed against them.
The kiss was soft yet profound, brimming with all the love and tenderness he held for her. Camila's heart raced, and she closed her eyes, losing herself in the moment.
Just as she was getting swept away by the kiss, Connor pulled back and sat up on the couch, looking down at her. Camila's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Connor took in the sight of her sprawled on the couch, her hair cascading around her, her eyes sparkling like morning stars, misty and incredibly alluring. After a moment of silence, he swallowed hard, feeling a surge of uncontrollable longing.
"I need a shower," he murmured, his voice husky with restrained desire. Camila nodded, her cheeks flushing. She noticed...
Feeling flustered, she fanned her heated face, but it didn't help. Taking a deep breath, she stood up and opened the balcony door. The cold wind hit her face, tousling her long hair and dress, bringing her back to reality.
She stood there for a while until she shivered from the cold and finally closed the balcony door to return inside. Connor emerged from the bathroom, water droplets clinging to his hair, making his sharp features even more striking.
Drying his hair with a towel, he walked over to the couch and saw Camila nestled there, scrolling through her phone with a faint smile on her face.
