The light and shadows danced on the two figures who were entangled. Lauren’s tiny frame trembled in


    his arms.


    She did nothing at all, but her innocence was a deadly attraction for Landon, who had breached the


    first


    base.


    Under the influence of the alcohol, he went all out. Lauren watched a sh across her eyes before


    feeling


    the weight of a man on her.


    Her body sank deeper into the couch, turning her into an imprisoned bird.


    Landon started breathingboriously, but he continued kissing her aggressively and toying with her lips.


    At that moment, the female singer on the stage sang in a low and sultry voice,


    “I’ve been watchin’ you for some time


    Can’t stop starin’ at those ocean eyes


    Burning cities and napalm skies


    Fifteen res inside those ocean eyes


    Your ocean eyes…”


    auren was dizzy


    from all the kissing, and her eyes were glossy.

    “Mmph …” She struggled to breathe, then started twisting and turning underneath him.


    His eyes were burning from a new wave of desire she had just triggered, like a famished beast.


    Despite being drunk, he held on to hisst inch of conscience, noting that Lauren was his best friend’s


    sister.


    He not only had to refrain from touching Jasper’s wife but also had to keep his distance from Jasper’s


    sister.


    Before he lost control, he reluctantly removed himself from Lauren. A strand of saliva lingered between


    their parted lips.


    “You… You… Lauren’s eyes were in a daze. Intoxicated from the kiss, she was unable to think straight


    or


    speak.


    “Just wanted to test your im from before.” Landon narrowed his eyes and wiped away the saliva on


    the


    “You bullied me… You


    “So, have we proven your other statement? Do you think I’m made of water or something else?”


    Suddenly, a wave of drowsiness washed over Lauren, and she struggled to keep her eyes open.


    He kissed her on the forehead and coaxed her, “Go to sleep. Tell me your answers tomorrow.”


    Lauren, who had been animated a few minutes earlier, surprisingly drifted off to sleep. As she dozed


    off, she heard the faint, enchanting voice of a songstress singing.


    “I’ve never fallen from quite this high


    Fallin’ into your ocean eyes


    Those ocean eyes..


    Zoe busted open the door to the lounge with a loud bang. Landon’s half-dressed friends paled at the


    interruption as the escorts squealed and hid in the men’s arms.


    “Who the hell are you?” demanded one of the men, pointing a finger at Zoe. Landon had protected her


    well by keeping her identity under wraps, and her departure for Yoarkley at a young age meant that not


    many in Sna City recognized her.


    Zoe, who was already incensed, was further enraged by the question. Without a word, she grabbed an


    empty wine bottle from the table and swung it at the man’s head.


    The bottle shattered with a crash, eliciting screams from the women and leaving the men gaping at


    Zoe.


    “Son of a bitch!” Zoe’s eyes were spitting fire. She looked like she was ready to take on anyone.


    “And where are you from, you crazy bitch?” The other two guys rose to their feet and spoke out for their


    poor friend.


    “Wow, things are certainly heating up in here! What are you doing to my sister?” Landon emergedzily


    from the balcony, lifting a soundly asleep Lauren in his arms.
