Chapter 329 Caught In The Act

Chapter 329 Caught In The Act

A slow, triumphant smile curved Cassian’s lips as he gazed down at Raven, savoring the sweet reversal of their positions.

Under Raven’s seemingly innocent gaze, he cast her a sidelong glance, his eyes brimming with layered intent.

His usually cool voice dripped with smug satisfaction. “What am I doing? What do you think I’m doing?”

Raven arched an eyebrow, catching Cassian’s gaze–the kind that looked at her as if she were a harmless little rabbit.

Her harmless little rabbit had suddenly transformed into a big, bad wolf. ‘Oh no, I’m so scared, she thought.

Despite her teasing thoughts, she studied him seriously for a moment. “Sweetheart, are you sure about this?”

“Hah.”

Cassian’s scoff was his only reply before he pinned her shoulders and pushed her onto the bed.

Leaning down, he claimed her lips in a kiss.

Raven felt the warmth of his lips and the deliberate intent behind his actions. She didn’t resist, in fact, her movements seemed almost calculated, as if she were enjoying the game.

Cassian took her response as silent consent, a subtle smirk tugging at his lips as his long fingers reached for the buttons of her shirt.

Just as his fingers brushed the first button…

The sharp chime of the doorbell suddenly pierced through the room.

Cassian froze mid–action.

He tilted his head slightly, frowning as he glanced at the door.

Assuming it was just room service delivering breakfast to the presidential suite, he decided to ignore it.

When he turned back to Raven, the smile in his eyes deepened noticeably.

Instead of leaning down to kiss her again, he mimicked what she had done to him the day before–lifting her cuffed hands and placing them behind her head.

The difference was that Raven didn’t cry out or ask for the cuffs to be removed like he had.

She simply smiled faintly, her gaze calm and unbothered.

In fact, there was a glimmer of curiosity in her eyes, as if she was intrigued to see just how far he would go.

That look inexplicably set off alarm bells in Cassian’s mind.

Suddenly!

The sound of a card unlocking the door suddenly came from the entrance.

Measured footsteps echoed through the suite, each step deliberate and unhurried.

In that instant, Cassian’s breath hitched, as if he had just realized something.

At the same time, the person who had entered stopped not far away.

Hiemaly’s icy voice sliced through the tension. “What are you two doing?”

The icy voice snapped Cassian back to reality.

He turned his head stiffly, only to see Hiemaly standing nearby, his expression gloomy.

‘Thank God I listened to Raven and got dressed,‘ he thought.

Otherwise, if Hiemaly had walked in on the scene as it was before, Cassian was pretty sure he’d have wanted to dig a hole and bury himself alive.

“Sweetheart, can you let me go now?” she asked.
