When There Is Nothing Left But Love

This time, It seems like John had gained the upper hand over Ashton.

Originally, I figured that Ashton would rebuke. Instead, he rose to his feet and carried me in a bridal style. In the moment of surprise, my vision blurred as he scooped me into his embrace. Unconsciously, my hands found their way around his neck to stabilize myself.

“It’s a rare occasion that John is so eager to learn. As his honored guests, we should work harder,” Ashton addressed me with a serious look on his face.

“Huh?” I blinked up at him in utter confusion and shock.

The next moment, Ashton bent down and planted a gentle kiss on my forehead.

An electrifying feeling jolted across my body when he kissed me. At the same time, I heard John’s ragged breathing when he saw Ashton’s bold display of affection. “The two of you shouldn’t take things so far!” John yelled.

“We are about to take things even further,” Ashton replied as he gave John a disapproving gaze, “I wouldn’t recommend for you to follow us. I’m sure you can figure it out yourself. From now on, you won’t be receiving our help.”

With that, he turned on his heel and carried me upstairs.

As I caught a glimpse of John’s face when we turned, he had a petrified look of shock painted across his features.
