Chapter 545 Welcome Home
Neither of them spoke. They only stood there, looking at each other for a long moment.
Darius’s eyes were flooded with tenderness that refused to fade. With a soft laugh, he lowered his head and pressed a deep kiss to Thora’s lips.
One of Thora’s arms braced against the car. The instant his tongue slipped past her lips, she used that leverage to push forward and pin him against the vehicle instead.
Her fingers locked around his neck and shoulder. The usual cool detachment fell away, and she turned the tables without hesitation, taking control and breaking through his defenses step by step.
The force of it made them sway slightly. Their legs tangled together on instinct, their breaths intertwining, hot enough to set the air on fire.
A flicker of amusement crossed Darius’s eyes. Quietly, he freed one hand and pressed against the car door. It slid open at once.
He let himself fall backward, still gripping Thora tightly by the waist, and dragged her into the car with him. They landed heavily on the seat together.
They were both tall, and most of their long legs were still hanging outside the car, but the intimacy inside never paused for even a second.
Thora stayed just as fierce as before, almost greedy in the way she took his warmth and his breath.
But Darius gradually shed that first edge of dominance. His kiss turned lingering and gentle, his tongue brushing against hers with exquisite care, as if he wanted to pour all the longing of the past two years into this single kiss. Inside the car, quiet, intimate sounds rose and fell.
At last, after what felt like forever, Darius pulled back with obvious reluctance. He looked at the emotion Thora couldn’t quite hide in her eyes, at the way she still tried to hold herself in check despite it. That restraint made her more alluring than ever.
He slipped his fingers through the loose strands of hair falling over her shoulder, his voice so gentle it seemed almost to melt.
“Welcome back, my Thora.”
Thora looked at him. Light shimmered in her deep eyes, and the corners of her lips lifted into a faint but unmistakably real smile.
Yes. She was back.
It turned out she had missed him even more than she had realized.
At the same time, outside Thora’s villa, Howard had lost count of how many days he had spent standing at the
gate, waiting for her return.
He hugged a broom listlessly and let out a long sigh,
“Day 750 since Ms. Green left. I miss her. I miss her. Another day without Ms. Green coming home.”

Her hands moved swiftly. In no time, she had assembled the parts. Then she pressed the hidden. mechanism beside the wardrobe, and the wall slowly slid aside to reveal a massive cabinet. It was practically a miniature armory. Heavy weapons, light weapons, cold steel, everything was there.
Thora placed the weapons she had just assembled inside, then sealed the mechanism again. After checking the time, she lay down on the bed to rest.
