Let Me Stay The Night

Christina shared the coat with Nathaniel but dared not get too close to him for fear of making him wet.

However, the man simply wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his embrace. “Get closer. You’ll feel warmer taster.”

Christina hummed gently and lay her head on his shoulder. Immediately, the faint sandalwood scent on his body entered her nose, filling her with a sense of security.

The howling of the wind never stopped, and its blusters shook the house so hard it seemed as if it would collapse anytime.

“Achool”

Christina shivered. The cold was becoming more obvious thanks to the contrasting temperatures she was feeling, both on the inside and outside.

Hence, Nathaniel pulled her closer and rubbed his palm on her shoulder to create friction. “Are you cold?”

Her pale complexion made him frown with worry, and when his gaze fell on her drenched clothes, he feared she might catch a cold.

That was when an idea came to his mind. He gave her a gentle push to make some space and unbuttoned his shirt. Subsequently, he removed his white shirt and handed it to her, saying sternly. “Put it on.”

As she lifted her gaze, she was blessed by the sight of Nathaniel’s muscular and slender body. At the same time, a strong scent of male pheromones wafted into her nose. “Why are you giving me your shirt?”

Christina sneezed again. It was as if her body was answering on her behalf.

She knew there was no reason to go against her body’s needs. After all, she could return Nathaniel’s shirt once hers was dry.

Taking the white shirt from him, she said softly, “Turn around. Don’t look at me.”

Nathaniel chuckled softly when he saw how shy she was, but he obliged.

Only when he had turned away did Christina unbutton her wet shirt.

Her movements were so swift that it took her only a few seconds to get out of her clothes and into Nathaniel’s shirt. However, the shirt looked like a dress on her petite body.
