As the gauze was pressed against her face, Thalassa felt a cool sensation, along with the melting ice seeping onto her lips.
She then understood that what he was holding was an ice cube thoughtfully wrapped in a piece of white gauze.
Indeed, applying an ice cube directly to the mouth might result in the lips getting stuck to the ice and losing a layer of skin.
Thalassa stayed still and accepted his ice treatment.
He was considerate enough to wrap the ice cube with gauze.
He also remembered her casual words about using the ice she said before, and even fetched the ice himself to apply on her.
Thalassa sat upright and motionless, allowing Lysander to support her head with one hand while the other held the ice cube, applying it to her lips with a mild motion.
Without giving much thought, she drifted her gaze towards him. He looked at her with focus and his deep eyes fixated on her lips. His lush, long lashes cast two shadows under his eyelids. That, along with his striking nose and sensual lips, all formed into an irresistible charm.
His deep, masculine breath brushed against her face due to his concentration, carrying a familiar scent of sandalwood.
As Thalassa watched him and felt his breath, her heart suddenly pounded like a drum; her blood was heating up.
Suddenly, Lysander's eyes met hers. The moment their gazes met, Thalassa's heart quivered. She instantly averted her eyes to pretend she had not been looking at him.
Her gaze darted elsewhere in nervousness as her eyelashes trembled slightly.
Lysander noticed the blush creeping up on her cheeks; his throat tightened and his eyes darkened.
Her every move, even her flushed face, could easily stir his body's reaction.
Out of consideration for the kids’ present, he didn't make any further moves. He swallowed hard and held back.
After finishing applying the ice, he took the ice cube and left the room.
