He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 363

Hearing Stella's question, Jarrod couldn't help but grit his teeth. "Why would I willingly tell someone who clearly didn't remember a single thing about me that we met years ago?"

To make matters worse, not only had Stella forgotten him, but her heart had been completely devoted to Logan.

With Jarrod's overwhelming pride, there was absolutely no way he was going to bring it up.

Stella easily guessed exactly why Jarrod was annoyed. Staring at his handsome face, she leaned up and pressed a kiss to his jaw, murmuring, "Husband," in a soft, coaxing tone.

At that word, Jarrod's breath hitched. His eyes instantly darkened with an intense, predatory heat. That was the first time Stella had willingly called him 'husband'!

A fire ignited in Jarrod's veins. All he wanted was to crush Stella against him and completely claim her. In one swift motion, he flipped her onto her back and pinned her against the sofa. "Do you have any idea how seductive you are right now?"

How was one word seductive?

Stella quickly pushed her hands against his chest. "Don't! You barely slept last night, and we need to go to the hospital to check on Yvette."

Jarrod effortlessly pinned her wrists above her head, his voice rough and ragged. "None of that matters."

Before she could protest, Jarrod captured her lips in a deep, crushing kiss!

Instantly, Stella's senses were overwhelmed by his crisp cedarwood scent. The hands that had been slightly cold just moments ago were now burning hot, slipping under her shirt and tracing her skin with a demanding, trembling intensity that made her heart pound.

Her hands, which had been pushing him away, slowly went limp, unconsciously curling into the fabric of his shirt. A dizzying rush of heat and emotion surged through her veins, leaving her breathless.

The morning sun filtered through the sheer curtains, casting a soft, golden glow over their tangled bodies. The only sound in the room was their increasingly heavy breathing, as all the lingering terror, anxiety, and blooming affection melted entirely into the kiss.

Ultimately, Jarrod didn't get to 'finish the job.' Arthur called with an emergency at The Fuller Group that required Jarrod's immediate attention.

Jarrod pulled away, thoroughly frustrated, and held Stella close, completely unwilling to let her go. "I finally understand why ancient kings abandoned their thrones. All I want to do right now is stay in bed with you."
