His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 115

After finishing their meal, Tessa nudged Stephen toward the door, her cheeks tinged with a rosy hue.

"Alright, Stephen, time to go. I made plans with Naomi and Sienna to go shopping, so I won't have time to entertain you today."

Stephen stood his ground, his gaze tinged with a trace of hurt. "Have you already grown tired of me?"

At nearly six foot three, he was a solid wall, completely unshakable. No matter how hard Tessa pushed, he didn't budge an inch.

She pouted, her voice turning coquettish without even realizing it. "Of course not! How could I ever get tired of you? But this is a girls' day out. Having a big man like you tagging along might not be the best idea."

Stephen raised an eyebrow. "What's so inconvenient about me coming? I can carry your bags. You three are definitely going to shop till you drop. How much can those tiny arms of yours even hold?"

Tessa huffed in exasperation. "Ugh, just go already! I still need to do my makeup—I don't have time to deal with you."

Stephen's eyes sparkled with amusement. "I could do your makeup for you," he teased.

Tessa scoffed. "Yeah, right. You'd probably make me look like a ghost."

She softened her voice, coaxing him as if he were a stubborn child. "Alright, alright. I'll come find you tonight, okay?"

"Promise?"

She nodded earnestly. "Promise. Why would I lie to you?"

Stephen finally relented. "Fine. Call me when you're done shopping. I'll come pick you up."

"Okay."

…

Inside Sienna's private villa, laughter erupted like a chorus of bells.

"Tess, don't be shy! We're all friends here—spill the tea! Does Stephen really have issues in that department?"

Naomi was laughing so hard she had to clutch her stomach, tears glistening in her eyes. "Sienna, you won't believe this—last night, my brother told me Tess got drunk at the bar and told everyone that Stephen was… well, not very capable down there! I nearly died laughing! Tess, you're an absolute legend!"

With that, she pulled out her phone. "And guess what? My brother sent me a video. You have to see this."

She tapped play and held the screen up for Sienna.

"When Stephen came to pick Tess up from the bar, she wouldn't let go of him. She even asked for kisses—right there, in front of everyone!"

Naomi smirked, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "Wow, Tess, I had no idea you were this bold when you're drunk! We've been friends for years, and this is the first time I'm seeing this side of you."

"Wait, what?" Tessa's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the video. "The guy I was clinging to last night… was Stephen?"

On the screen, her intoxicated self wrapped around him, her voice so sweet it made her skin crawl.

With a sly grin, Naomi leaned in. "So, tell me the truth… does Stephen really have issues in that department?"

Tessa's blush deepened, and she immediately denied it, "Of course not!"

"I see," Naomi drawled, a teasing smile curling at her lips as she gave Tessa a knowing look. "So, does that mean he's really that good? Come on, Tess, don't lie—did you two... you know?"

Sienna's eyes widened in shock. "Tess, have you—"

Tessa's embarrassment skyrocketed. "Ahhh! Naomi, you're so annoying! Why do you keep asking about this?"

Naomi flashed a mischievous grin and caught Sienna's eye.

Sienna met her gaze, and the two exchanged a sly, knowing smile.

Setting her phone aside, Naomi leaned in closer, tilting her head. "So? Did you two really cross that line? Come on, spill the details—how was the first time?"

Sienna remained silent, but the curiosity dancing in her eyes spoke volumes.

Meanwhile, Tessa looked like she wanted to crawl into a hole. "There's nothing to talk about—"

"Wait, so you two actually went there? No way!" Naomi slapped her thigh, her eyes wide with shock. "That was fast!"

Sienna chuckled softly. "I mean, it's not that surprising. Tess has been back for a while now."
