Just as he had said, Nichs was easy to coax. I wrapped my arms. around his waist, my lips softly kissing his chin.


    In a deliberately seductive voice, I said, "Then help me sell the shares of Jones Corporation. I looked up at him with sincere eyes, asking, "Will you do that for me?" I even wiggled his waist as I pleaded with him


    "Then beg me" He wasn''t any better than me. His voice was husky, filled with desire. Though he was talking about the shares, I could always detect another meaning in his tone.


    I immediately softened my voice and said, ''Honey, please?"


    A whileter, for some unknown reason, perhaps turbulence, the ne began to shake uncontrobly. We held each other tightly, our fearful breaths uncontrobly seeping into each other''s ears. Afterward, everything seemed to spiral out of control I didn''t remember how I had fallen asleep, but when I woke up again, we were already at the hotel, and Nichs was lying beside me


    He propped his head up with one hand while using his phone with the other Mature men exuded an endless charm when they were focused on their work


    That sense of control and concentration, untroubled by any problems, was unique and unmatched by anything else


    But what captivated me was not his shrewd and intelligent demeanor, but his bare chest marked with love bites. The pink marks extended down to where I couldn''t see requiring me to rely solely on memories ofst night to recall their position.


    The thin nket covered only half of his chest, failing to hide the chiseled muscles of his abdomen, which I could tell felt amazing even without touching.


    I smiled lightly, realizing that my childhood crush on him wasn''t without reason. I propped myself up and gently bit his forearm." Honey, good morning."


    He put down his phone, turned to me with azy and rxed smile, and tapped my nose with his finger.


    "It''ste, but I didn''t want to disturb you since you were sleeping so soundly. Get up, and I''ll have someone bring breakfast."


    He moved to lift the nket and get out of bed, but I pressed his hand down and asked, "Honey, are you busy with work?"


    He didn''t answer me. Instead, his eyes grew dark and greedy." What? Are you not hungry?"


    His gaze seemed to cast a spell over me, instantly reminding me of everything that had happenedst night.


    On the ne, in that never-before-experienced setting, everything. had stimted our senses. His eyes made him look as if he wanted


    to devour me.


    I took a deep breath, trying to suppress the strange feeling, and replied, "I''m fine. I usually don''t feel hungry right after waking up. It takes about an hour before I start wanting to eat." His intense stare made me a little nervous, and I found myself talking more than usual. "But I can eat now too. You don''t have to feel hungry to-"

    Before I could finish, he suddenly flipped over and pinned me down, a wicked grin on his lips. He leaned down and nibbed on my earlobe, his warm breath tickling my ear.


    His voice was sexy and enticing as he uttered, "Then let''s get some exercise first. This hotel''s lunch is excellent. I guarantee you''ll be starvingter."


    I narrowed my eyes slightly, my fingers poking at his defined abs provocatively. "I''m in great shape."


    Heughed heartily, rolling off me as he continued, making the bed shake with his mirth.


    Suddenly, all the ambiguous tension between us dissipated. I was inexplicably annoyed, pulling the nket around me and sitting up to re at him.


    "Is it that funny?"


    I must have hit his funny bone because he continuedughing." When I was in high school, I got a gym membership with some ssmates, and the next day, I saw you on the treadmill." "You recognized me?" I was fully geared up. Although I had deliberately followed him back then, I hadn''t expected to be spotted. I had hoped for a chance encounter.


    He ruffled my hair with a hand on top of my head andmented, "You still look like a midget on the treadmill."


    When Nichs first started high school, I had just graduated from elementary school and was about to enter junior high.


    Although I wasn''t particrly tall, I wasn''t short enough to be smaller than a treadmill. Hisment was a bit of a blow to my self-esteem.


    I threw the nket aside and lunged at him, nning to cover him and give him a good thumping, but I was subdued halfway through.


    He pinned me down and tickled me with his fingers. We tussled for a while until he forced me to beg for mercy.


    Later, when my stomach protested loudly, he held me close. We exchanged a look and burst intoughter.


    That day and the following days, Nichs and I had no chance to leave the hotel and explore the ind. To test my physical endurance, he took it upon himself.


    We exercised in the morning, at noon, and even at night. I couldn''t pinpoint what was wrong, but it seemed like this was how a honeymoon should be.
