Ayla had her arms around Draven’s neck. When her lips brushed his, his body stiffened for a split second.

The next moment, Draven locked an arm tight around her waist. Just like that, Ayla went from leading to being held.

Her kiss had only been light, like a quick touch. But when Draven pulled her closer and leaned into her, that simple, childish kiss turned into something deep and full of heat.

Her lips hurt a little as he kissed her harder, impatient and urgent. She lost control and opened up without meaning to, and he took over completely. Ayla felt how strong and commanding he was. It was like he had waited for this kiss for a very, very long time—and now he was almost out of control.

With no way to fight back, a small spark of fear rose in her chest. The kiss was too forceful. too overwhelming. She couldn’t breathe. Her mind went blank. Yet at the same time, it washed away the fear and panic left behind from being taken and threatened by Troy. All she could feel was her heart pounding like thunder.

Draven was kissing her.

He kissed her hard.

Ayla closed her eyes.

The helicopter quickly changed direction. Troy was no longer in sight.

Shawn cleared his throat.

Ayla’s arms tightened around Draven’s neck, her fingers gripping the hair at the back of his

head.

Finally, Draven snapped out of it and ended the kiss he had wanted for so long.

He liked it.

But it wasn’t enough.

Draven looked at Ayla. His sharp, hungry gaze fell on her flushed lips, then slowly moved up to her eyes.

His eyes were still dark and heavy. After holding her gaze for a moment, he pulled her into his arms again. Since they were sitting, there was no height difference. Their chests pressed together in a full, tight hug.

His lips brushed near her ear, his voice low and quiet. “Don’t panic. This was just for show. For Troy.”

If he could, he would kiss her ear and her neck right now. Make her skin prickle. Make her tremble because of him.

But he forced himself to hold back. Again and again.

The sound of his voice and the warm breath by her ear made it go numb.

Ayla thought, Was it really just an act?

After a flicker passed through her eyes, her gaze slowly calmed.

Draven.

She silently said his name in her heart.

By his ear, Ayla whispered, “Once things settle down, I’ll come find you.”

The hug didn’t last long. When they pulled apart Draven took her other hand.

The wrist Troy had dragged was already dark with bruises. Draven didn’t dare touch it. Just seeing it made his face turn grim. When his eyes dropped to the wound on her knee, his expression darkened even more, anger and pain mixed deep in his gaze.

Shawn didn’t dare look over. He really hadn’t expected playing matchmaker to nearly get himself killed.

Putting aside how dangerous it already was to set them up, he had been the one who took Ayla to a second place to drink and relax. That meant her safety was on him. After all, she had left with him.

And yet, right under his nose, she had been taken away by her ex. Yes, her ex. That alone was stepping on a landmine. Honestly, it would’ve been better if anyone else had taken her. His buddy hated anyone with the last name Winston

And to make things worse, he had gone onto the Randalls’s turf to get her back. Now he also had to deal with that pack of lunatics.

Shawn dumped all this bad luck onto Will. What kind of trash intel had he given him? And wasn’t Will Draven’s assistant? How could he not see that his boss liked Ayla? What an idiot.

The helicopter headed for the nearest landing pad and touched down soon after.

Everyone got off.

Shawn was panicking. Normally, he could joke around in front of Draven all he wanted. But now he knew better. “Draven, and… Ms. Keaton, you should get to the hospital right away”

Draven was injured. Ayla was hurt too.

Shawn liked pretty women and couldn’t stand seeing them hurt. He got angry on the spot. “Is Troy even a man? Picking on a woman like that? Neither of them seemed eager to respond. Shawn quickly switched gears and asked Ayla with concern, “Are you okay?” He pointed at his chest, meaning her emotions.

In Shawn’s mind, if Winnie had been the one kidnapped, she’d be crying in his arms by now, scared out of her mind.

Ayla might be different, but she was still a woman. And when men like Troy or Draven lost control, even grown men would feel fear. There was no way Ayla was completely fine.

He urged again, “Draven, calm her down. Why do you look so stiff? You’re gonna scare her…”

“I’m fine, Mr. Shawn,” Ayla said calmly. She didnt look shaken at all. Her emotions were steady. Comforting her almost felt unnecessary. Shawn raised a brow in surprise.

Ayla is really cool.

“Is Noah okay?” Ayla asked.

Shawn’s eyelid twitched. “… He’s fine. He was sent to the hospital.”

“Let’s

go see him.”
