Anika had just finished washing up and was already in her pajamas in the second bedroom and walked to the master bedroom next door.

The bed in the master bedroom was large and soft, as Zac had stated, and could easily accommodate two people.

They turned the heater on inside the room.

Zac took Anika into his arms as she lifted her thin blanket and lay on the bed.

They kissed and hugged each other frequently after their trip, but they did not sleep in the same bed as they did today.

Nobody said anything.

Zac leaned over her and tilted his head slightly to turn off the yellow bedside lamp.

The room was pitch black.

When Zac turned off the lights, Anika closed her eyes.

But the scene stayed a calm and silent exchange of glances.

In the night's silence, his sense of touch intensified.

Zac cradled her in his arms after turning off the lights.

Zac's body pressed against her, and a warm sweat slowly trickled down his face.

It was as if a feather fell down on his heart.

A feather that was so light that it gives him thrills.

Zac and Anika had some wine at the banquet.

Their noses couldn't discern the faint aroma of wine lingering in their breaths.

The wine's scent heightened slightly, as did his temperature, as his hands wrapped around her waist became hotter.

Anika felt a little uncomfortable and attempted to move to change her position.

He paused for a few seconds before he completely stopped.

"Don't move” Zac said, his voice low and muffled.

"You're hugging me a little too tightly.It's getting a little hot” Anika grumbled.

Zac loosened his grip on her.

He then retrieved Anika, who had moved away from him slightly.

When Anika moved to the villa, he laid on the bed and imagined the future.

But now, it was hard not to hug her tightly, but it was even harder to let her go.

Anika opened her eyes in the darkness, sensed his stiffness.

"Are you uncomfortable?" she asked.

"What do you think?" Zac said as his jaw tightened.
