After cleaning up, Justin was worried that she might overexert

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

gave off a warm scent mixed with his sweat.

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

eager kitten.

as his lips brushed her forehead.

usually keep yourself quite clean. How come you didn’t bother to take

Bella pursed her lips, feeling warm inside.
