Chapter 38

“I don’t know…” Silvia’s face was red, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. Her whole body was burning up. Neil grabbed her chin and said, “Look closely! Who am I?” The pain in her jaw briefly brought Silvia back to reality, and she struggled to open her eyes. “You’re… Neil…” After he got the answer he wanted, Neil kissed her on the lips. Then, he held her waist as he deepened the kiss. Silvia felt like she was flipping between scorching fire and freezing water. The night was still young. … When Silvia woke up, her body ached, and she let out an unintentional groan. Something hit her, and she quickly opened her eyes. With Neil’s handsome face right before her, she knew that last night had not been a dream. She rubbed her throbbing temples, and her headache grew even worse. Neil was lying down beside her, and he woke up when he sensed her movement. Their eyes met, and neither of them spoke right away. Silvia tried to speak, but she realized that her throat hurt.
