Chapter 148
148:
Collin’s expression remained calm and collected. “Not yet, but I’m a fast learner. I hope you’ll give me the chance.”
His voice lowered slightly as he added, “Since you can learn to massage me, I can certainly do the same for you.”
Linsey was taken aback, a strange feeling bubbling up within her.
It was a feeling of warmth and tenderness, like a gentle spring breeze caressing her heart.
Later that evening, after freshening up, she sat down in front of him, a sense of anticipation hanging in the air.
Collin lowered his head, his gaze drawn to the delicate curve of her neck.
Her skin was so smooth and delicate that it seemed as though even the slightest touch would leave a trace.
“Have you been feeling any soreness or discomfort lately?” he asked.
Linsey considered his question for a moment before pressing her shoulder. “I’ve been spending a lot of time hunched over my drawing table, and my shoulders are a bit sore.”
Collin nodded in understanding. Without hesitation, he placed his broad hands on her shoulders.
The instant his hands made contact with her skin, Linsey’s heart skipped a beat.
She instinctively held her breath, the warmth from his hands seeping through the thin fabric of her pajamas and onto her skin.
Linsey tried to maintain her composure, silently chiding herself for her flustered reaction. It was just a massage; there was no need to get worked up over it.
Collin’s touch was initially hesitant.

Concerned about causing Linsey pain, he used a gentle touch as he massaged her.
“Am I hurting you?” he inquired.
Linsey shook her head, a blush rising to her cheeks. “I can’t really feel anything.”
He gradually increased the pressure, and she felt the tension in her shoulders and neck begin to ease.
His touch was firm yet gentle, each movement deliberate and precise.
The warmth radiating from his hands was comforting.
Soon, she felt her entire body relax.
“Is this better?” he asked, his gaze searching her face.
A satisfied smile spread across Linsey’s face. “That’s amazing. I feel so much better,” she replied, her voice filled with gratitude.
Reassured, he continued the massage for another ten minutes before asking, “Do you have any other sore spots?”
“My lower back is a little sore too…” she responded thoughtfully.
He immediately moved his hands to her lower back.
A tickle surged through her, causing her to tense up.
“That tickles!” she exclaimed. “Don’t touch me there!”
She lurched forward, nearly falling off the bed.
Collin reacted quickly, catching her and pulling her back into his embrace.
She froze, her heart racing as she felt his body against hers.
“Careful now,” he whispered, holding her close.
He chuckled at her flustered expression. “Why are you so ticklish? I barely touched you. If you’re this sensitive… what are we going to do in the future?”
As their eyes met, the underlying meaning of his words hit her. A blush crept up her cheeks, and she mumbled, “Oh, you’re terrible!”
