The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 320

Holding hands seemed intimate enough to me. “Trobably 

Instead of arguing. Zane mused, “Anna, lying comes with a price. He’ll keep pursuing you 

Zane suddenly realized that Steven’s presence was a great excuse to get closer to me. 

I bit my lip. Honestly, I wanted nothing more to do with Steven, so I could only look up at Zane “What would convince him for good?” Suddenly, he pulled me onto his lap. I tried to stand, but he held me flandy. Then, Zane whispered seductively, “Just demonstrating ” 

“Okay, I get it blushed, trying to rise. 

But Exte wouldn’t let go, “Why are you blushing so hard? Didn’t Steven ever hold you 

I nodded. “No. Since he didn’t love me, we only held hands and hugged. Nothing more.” 

“Really?” As Zame questioned me, he could not help himself anymore. He cupped my face and pressed his warm lips to mine. The sudden kiss left my mind blank. 

Instinctively, I tried to push him away. But Zane het my back and did not want to let go. Strangely, I did not mind has kiss at all. 

Sending my acceptance, he deepened the kiss this was his first kiss ever, and he never knew kissing someone he loved could feel so great. Finally, he released me when I needed air. Staring at Zane, I asked in a daze, “Is this necessary for pretending?” 

Zane answered firmly, “Of course Lovers have passionate moments, and this makes it believable” 

That made sense. I touched his face gently. While his cold eyes softened with laughter, it felt as if I was the only one he could see at that moment. He let me touch him all I wanted. Then, I gave him a quick kiss Surprised by my initiative, he traze briefly 

But I pulled back almost immediately, so he chucked in a loving tone. “You’re learning” 

“course“leaned on his shoulder. It’s all for show I really want Steven to give up.”
