Jasper widened his eyes.

Truthfully, from the moment Alyssa entered the room, he had noticed that something was bothering her.

Hearing her question at this moment alarmed him.

He wrapped his muscular arms around her waist as he puffed his chest out.

He stroked her waist gently and asked, "What happened, Lyse? What's with that question out of the blue?” "Jasper, I-I..." A troubled look filled Alyssa's face.

"It's alright if you don't want to tell me about it.

We're lovers, partners, but you don't have to force yourself." Jasper seemed to have a realization.

He pulled her in even tighter and rested his chin on her shoulder.

He nuzzled her longingly.

"My dear Lyse, you'll always have the highest degree of freedom and liberty.

"Even though we're lovers and partners, you still have the right to keep secrets.

I will not interfere or cross the line." Such consideration from Jasper made Alyssa well up with tears.

She buried her face in his chest and started sobbing.

Distrust gnawed at her, making it hard to confide in others.
