Chapter 253
In the bedroom, the dim light of the table lamp east a romantic glow on the picturesque scenery.
Grace made an effort to regain her composure, taking advantage of a brief gap to skillfully flip her upper body. With her hands and elbows pressing against his collarbone, she prevented him from approaching again.
Her chest heaved up and down heavily, gasping for breath after his punishment just now.
Caught by the coldness in her gaze, Eder’s handsome face wrinkled, his eyes reddened at the corners. His black pupils glistened, showing a hint of distress. “Grace, are you trying to suffocate
me?”
Grace witnessed the expression of helplessness on his face for the first time, and her heart skipped a
beat.
“Grace…”
After struggling for a few seconds, Grace succumbed to his exquisite acting skills and his irresistible charm. “Turn off the lights! And don’t leave any marks on my neck!”
Eder smirked triumphantly and switched off the bedside lamp with a crisp sound.
Moonlight seeped through the gaps in the curtains, casting scattered beams on the bed, obscuring the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
A night of intimacy.
Morning came.
Grace had slept deeply throughout the night. She was awakened by Eder’s kiss.
When she woke up, she found him lying beside her, his hand propping up his head, elbow resting on the pillow. His thin lips curved into a sensuous smile, and his deep, mesmerizing black eyes stared at her unwaveringly.
“Did you sleep well last night?”
Grace glanced at him, rolled over, and continued to sleep. “I’m exhausted, I’m sleepy.”
Eder embraced her waist and moved her closer to him, resting her head in the crook of his arm.
She didn’t resist, and soon fell asleep again, in a daze.
