He suddenly called her name with profound solemnity.
Riley looked at Sebastian with earnest eyes. "Hmm?"
Sebastian extended his long arm and gently pulled Riley by the waist. "When you back away from a problem, it makes me feel like you don't have me in your heart at all."
"No, I just..."
She just lacked confidence in their relationship. But those words were too pitiful, and she didn't want to say them out loud.
Sebastian tightened his arm around Riley's waist, pressing their bodies closely together. He didn't force her to finish her sentence. "From now on, you're not allowed to back down when things get tough. If I'm unhappy, or if I mind something, you can coax me. I'm very easy to coax."
Riley's eyelashes fluttered, her nose stinging slightly. She had thought that carrying such a past doomed her to be a burden in a relationship. She was afraid he would despise her, which was why she instinctively tried to retreat at the first sign of trouble.
Seeing Riley remain silent, Sebastian raised an eyebrow. "What, you don't know how to coax?"
"I do." Riley wrapped her arms around Sebastian's sharply defined neck, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his lips.
He had taught her last time: kissing him was the best way to coax him.
The moment their lips touched, the longing that had been suppressed for so long exploded. Sebastian's arm around Riley's waist tightened abruptly, instantly turning the tables and deepening the kiss.
Riley responded earnestly, pouring more than half a month of pent-up yearning into the kiss.
Sebastian kissed her fervently, completely immersed, as if trying to make up for all the intimacy missing from those days apart.
The temperature in the room skyrocketed rapidly, and countless sparks of chemistry ignited.

Update please...
Its better when the female lead is strong. Nothing worse then reading a story with a weak main character...
