Late into the night, Ashlyn stretched and closed her notebook before keeping all the medical books she had been reading earlier.

She was about to head to her bedroom to sleep, but she realized that Jared had fallen asleep.

The man’s tall figure was all curled up in a ball on the rug with his head against the sofa. Although it was a weird position to sleep in, Jared seemed to be sleeping soundly. His breathing was even and he would sometimes grind his teeth in his sleep. Somehow, he looked like a husky that was guarding the doors.

Ashlyn crouched down and slapped Jared’s face a few times and said, “Wake up. Go sleep in your room.”

Jared opened his drowsy, drunken eyes and mumbled, “Mm…”

Ashlyn saw that he was staggering while he got up, so she quickly steadied him. Jared was dizzy from being drunk and couldn’t seem to steady himself. In the midst of it, they tugged and pulled on each other before finally falling on the sofa.

By the time Ashlyn came to her senses, she was already laying on Jared’s chest.

This bastard!

She quickly slapped Jared and ordered him, “Get up now! I shouldn’t have bothered with you.”

Right as Ashlyn finished her sentence, she felt the temperature in the room drop.

She had always been sensitive to her surroundings. Feeling confused, she looked up and immediately saw a man’s dark expression that almost blended into the night. His body exuded a murderous aura as if he might kill someone the next second.
