The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1091

Chapter 1091

Theo gently stroked her head, saying tenderly, "That's the right reaction; you're doing great."

It had been a while since she last saw him, and she was beginning to feel uncomfortable with his closeness.

Ellinor furrowed her brows as she looked into Theo's eyes, "When did you come back to the country? Why are you suddenly here?"

Theo looked down at her; his tone was lazy and strangely appealing, "I got back on a flight last night. You're asking why I'm suddenly here? Would I be here if you hadn't run off here like a naughty little thing? Don't you want to see me?"

As he spoke, his warm breath gently brushed against her cheek, leaving her feeling ticklish. Her face turned red, but she didn't look particularly happy, "So is this your way of surprising me?"

Theo gave a simple nod in response.

Ellinor knitted her eyebrows together, "I appreciate the gesture, but I must tell you that I don't like surprises. Can you let me know in advance the next time you come back?"

She genuinely disliked surprises. She preferred to have clear outcomes, disliked guessing, and definitely didn't enjoy getting startled.

Theo opened his arms wide, pressing her tightly against his chest. He rested his chin in the crook of her neck, deeply inhaling her scent as if he couldn't get enough.

"Alright, next time, I'll let you know in advance."

Ellinor struggled for breath in his embrace. She put up a small fight but was unable to make him let go. After deciding not to resist anymore, she asked with a frown, "I have another question."

Theo rubbed his chin against her delicate shoulder, "Go ahead."

Ellinor asked in an annoyed tone, "Where are my clothes? I remember going to sleep in my pajamas last night; how come they were gone when I woke up?"

"Not yet, not yet..." Theo didn't let go of her; instead, he held on tighter.

Ellinor was starting to get impatient, "I need to change and freshen up, then have breakfast! I'm really hungry now!"

Theo's voice was tired, but he tried to sound gentle, "I arrived at the airport at 2 a.m., then spent an hour getting to you. I barely got any sleep. Be a good girl and lie with me a bit longer. I'll take you to have something yummy later, okay?"

Ellinor felt sleepy, almost as if she were affected by Theo's fatigue, but then she remembered the woman's voice from the phone last night.

Her sympathy for him vanished instantly.

"I've had enough sleep; lying down any longer will make me uncomfortable! If you're tired, you can lie down and rest by yourself!" Ellinor struggled a bit, hoping to free herself from Theo’s grip.
