“Why are we stopping so suddenly?”


    As Lindsey’s mind wandered, Domenic cornered her against the wall at the back of a building.


    Night had descended.


    Also, everyone had gone home, and this secluded nook saw no passerby.


    The chill moonlight bathed the ground in its luminance.


    Lindsey found herself enveloped and ki*sed by Domenic in this quiet nook.N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    She leaned on his shoulder, her strength seemingly drained, surrendering to his overwhelming passion and body heat.


    With one hand, Domenic held her slender waist while the other meandered restlessly inside her garments!


    “Wait.


    Let’s find another ce.


    ” Lindsey grasped Domenic’srge hand, breathless.


    Her reddened eyes, misty and bashful, were a potent allure to him.


    Domenic’s eyes bore intensity.


    Subduing his desire, he rearranged her clothes to cover her delicate body from the night cold.


    His fervent breath lingered near her ear.


    The mingled heavy breaths of the two frolicked wantonly in the tranquil ambiance.


    He enfolded her in his robust embrace.


    Their separation had been brief, but their longing for each other immense.


    Lindsey reciprocated, clinging to his firm back.


    Resting her head against his broad shoulder, she asked in a husky tone, “How is your grandfather? Is he feeling better?”


    “Not well.


    I have to keep himpany a few more days.


    ” Domenic released Lindsey and pressed her shoulders.


    His striking eyes seemed especially piercing in the moon’s glow.


    “Why did you mention being followed? Tell me about that.


    ”


    Recounting the evening’s events, the light in Domenic’s eyes dimmed progressively.


    He discerned numerous sets of eyes surveilling themtely.


    Rupert harbored suspicions about Lindsey and himself.


    “I’ll get to the bottom of this swiftly.


    ” He ruffled her hair with hisrge hand.


    “Avoid deserted these days.


    And immediately notify me if anything amiss arises.


    ”


    “What will you do? Is it perilous?” Lindsey wrapped her arms around his waist, her eyes fraught with concern.


    “Shouldn’t we involve the authorities? There’s a streak of peculiar incidents recently.


    ”


    “What else has urred?” Domenic asked seriously.


    Lindsey disclosed her encounter with Professor Lopez at the research center.


    “Professor Lopez…” After a brief pause, Domenic nced at Lindsey.


    “Remember, tell me of such incidents in the future.


    Know that I am always by your side.


    I’lle through for you anytime.


    ”


    The Walsh Group backed this research facility, but few people knew about it.


    Should Lindsey divulge her quest for a specific drug, Domenic could procure it expediently.


    “Okay, I know,” Lindsey replied in a docile andpliant tone.
