Marrying the Man in the Dark

To her surprise, Damien suddenly stood too close to Cherise. They were so close that her lips brushed against his face when she turned.

Sparks flew between them.

In the next moment, Damien pressed Cherise onto the sofa, kissing her passionately.

“Cherry,” he said affectionately. “We’ve been apart for a day. I miss you.”

Cherise appeared incredulous. She pushed him away, rejecting his kiss. “Really? It’s only been a day.”

“It’s true,” Damien replied, looking at her with his deep–set eyes. Cherise could even see her blushing face reflected in them, which made her blush even harder.

“We were inexplicably separated for five years. I’ve spent five years yearning for you. I want you to make up for it twice as much every day.”

Having said that, he didn’t even give her time to catch her breath before kissing her passionately.

The air between them became charged with ambiguity and tension. Cherise was immersed in his lingering kiss, unable to free herself.
