Chapter 71

Our mouths were so close together that they almost made contact.

"From what I can remember, you needed me and wanted me; I just had to be yours." I sighed in a sensual manner as my sight shifted seductively from his eyes to his lips and back again.

Cedric did nothing but stand there for a second while looking directly into my eyes. After that, in a single, forceful, and desperate motion, he grasped the back of my neck and kissed me passionately.

The kiss threw my hormones into overdrive, and I couldn't stop smiling.

After he shoved us up against a tree, I took advantage of the opportunity to encircle his waist with my legs.

As he proceeded to kiss the back of my neck, I let out a low groan. I opened my eyes, and the first thing that caught my attention was the warmth of his neck.

Within my thoughts, I could hear his quick, enthusiastic pulse beating like a drum.

I instantly grasped his face and turned his attention to me by doing so.
