After cleaning up, Justin was worried that she might overexert

herself, so he gently carried her to the dining room for dinner.

He had been busy all day, and his usually pristine white shirt now

To Bella’s surprise, she felt a little lightheaded. Instead of finding it

unpleasant, she nestled her nose against his chest, sniffing like an

eager kitten.

“What’s this? Are you trying to eat me?” Justin teased her with a smile

as his lips brushed her forehead.

Justin simply replied. “I didn’t have the time. I’ll go wash up after we finish eating.”

Bella pursed her lips, feeling warm inside.
