The moon slowly rose in the inky night sky.


    When they were back at the manor, Jasper went to his study to do some work. Alyssa bathed alone


    and did some simple skincare. Without even blow-drying her hair, she stood on the balcony and let the


    breeze apany her as she was lost in her thoughts.

    In her mind, Justin''s words kept reying, and she sifted through his words carefully as if she were


    using a fine-toothb.


    Justin was too much of a mystery.


    In her opinion, she felt that she was adept at reading others. When Jameson was love-bombing her, no


    matter how attractive his personality or features were, she still saw through everything and tore his


    mask to shreds.


    But from Justin, she couldn''t sense a hint of animosity. Instead, he was gentle and charming, like a light


    spring breeze.


    What truly caught her off guard was his willingness to try out the new drugs for Lauren''s sake. Even if


    his intentions were not entirely noble, this gamble was a bit too risky.


    Alyssa''s brows were deeply furrowed as a million thoughts ran through her mind. "Justin, who are


    you?"


    Suddenly, a passionate and tender embrace enveloped her from behind, his arms tightly circling her


    waist.


    "My love, why didn''t you blow dry your hair when I''m not around?"


    Jasper suddenly appeared behind her. His sharp chiny on her shoulder as his warm breath spread


    over her neck, reddening her skin. "What would I do if you caught a cold? If you''re not feeling well, I


    would feel so sad."


    "When did youe over? You scared me." Alyssa whispered. His teasing made her feel ticklish, and


    she squirmed in his arms like a kitten.


    "A penny for your thoughts? You looked so preupied." Jasper kissed her earlobe.


    "I was thinking of your brother." Alyssa was still absorbed in her thoughts, and carelessly, she blurted


    that out.


    Jasper''s heart plummeted from cloud nine to a thorny ravine. His gaze darkened, and his kissing


    turned to biting as if he was punishing her.


    "Ah, it hurts... Ouch!"


    Alyssa was roughly flipped around, and her chin was cupped in a strong grip. Her eyes were forced to


    meet his deep, inky ones. Her heart skipped a beat.


    His gaze alone made her knees go weak, and she started shivering.


    "Lyse, who did you say you were thinking of?" Jasper''s chest heaved, and his hoarse voice made her


    shudder.


    "Y-You know I didn''t mean it that way... Ah!"


    His fiery kiss attacked her lips, and his tongue wrested control over her.


    Alyssa''s tongue waspletely subdued by Jasper, aching and numb. Tears squeezed out of the


    corner of her eyes as her back was propped against the balcony railing, unable to move at all.


    She realized that Jasper was a little unhinged today, and she couldn''t help but feel unnerved.


    However, before she could delve deeper into her thoughts, his ravaging kiss addled her mind, making


    her head feel heavy. Her only piece of clothing, the rose-pink silk robe, slid down her smooth


    shoulders. It stopped at their waists, which were almost melded together.


    Under the silvery moonlight, her pale, wless body was like a tender flower bud blossoming in his


    passionate embrace.


    Jasper''s final thread of sanity snapped.


    His calloused hands kneaded her left side while he took the right side into his mouth.


    "No. I. I just bathed." Alyssa couldn''t help but arch her neck as ecstasy and pain swirled inside her.


    "Then bathe again, I''ll help you."


    Jasper held her waist. His white button-up was still neat and unwrinkled, but his pants already dropped


    to the floor.


    Without another word, he eagerly merged his body with hers, bucking wildly and without restraint.


    Alyssa''s eyes were teary as her arms hooked around his neck. Her body convulsed again and again.


    The cold night breeze skimmed across her exposed back, starkly contrasting the fiery heat of their


    lovemaking. It was exhrating and torturing at the same time.


    "Jas. Jasper. I''m cold."


    Alyssa''s body was damp with sweat, but her lips were quivering. She looked into his unbridled gaze


    with pleading eyes. "Let''s go to the bed. To the bed, alright?"


    "Are you still thinking about him? Are you going to think more about him? Hmm?" Jasper''s eyes


    glowered at her, not even answering her.


    He felt like he was going mad.
