Never Too Far Novel

When Shirley returned to the room, Zacharias suddenly made a request. “Could you wash my hair? It’s so itchy.”

She was taken aback. She observed the man, who had been hospitalized since his injury. Considering his usual cleanliness, he must not have had a proper bath or washed his hair for some time.

“Alright, I’ll get a basin of hot water,” she said.

She fetched a basin of water, and he reclined on the bed. His striking face came into her view.

With her palms, she scooped some water and dampened his black hair. As her delicate fingers moved through his strands, it felt like a feather gently brushed against his heart.

Zacharias lying posture exposed his neck, showcasing his seductive Adam’s apple. His thin lips were slightly pursed, and his eyes, beautifully shaped and glistening, held a captivating radiance. He seemed like an enchanting male fairy.

Shirley’s gaze met his eyes briefly. Then, she glanced at his slightly upturned lips. For some inexplicable reason, her heart skipped a beat.
