Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 889

The more Aspen thought about it, the more convinced she became. "Seth, I have something urgent to take care of. We'll talk next time!"

Without waiting for his response, she turned and left in a hurry.

Seth tilted his head, watching her graceful figure disappear. His tongue flicked across his lips as a smirk formed.

"A top-tier beauty… aside from her chest being a little on the small side, she's damn near perfect. But even though they're small, they're perky—just the right size to fit in my hands.

A slow, greedy grin stretched across his face. Women like Aspen could not be rushed, especially ones with powerful backgrounds, but he was not in a hurry. With his status as a Haywood, it was only a matter of time before he had her naked, completely at his mercy, savoring every inch of her.

"Heh, well, well… Ms. Aspen, calling me first? That's rare," Andrew teased.

Aspen did not have the patience for his usual antics. "Andrew, do you have Kenny's son, Michael?"
