Chapter 1063

Seth looked at her flushed earlobes, the amusement in his eyes deepening.

Noreen bit her lower lip, imagining him focused on baking a cake.

Rationality told her to refuse, but a secret desire took root in her heart and grew wildly like vines.

Under his expectant gaze, she finally nodded.

The moment Noreen agreed, the joy in Seth’s eyes exploded.

Unable to contain his excitement, he pulled her back into his arms.

As soon as Noreen looked up, Seth lowered his head and captured her lips.

She could taste the cake.

It was true, it tasted different from hers.

It was very sweet.

She wasn’t sure if it was the cake that was sweet, or the kiss.

Either way, it was intoxicating.

People were constantly coming and going at the hotel entrance.

Yet this passionate, lingering kiss remained hidden in the shadows of the empty parking lot.

The kiss was light at first, like a feather brushing against her heart, full of cautious exploration and tender care.

But soon, the deep affection they had kept suppressed surged out like a tidal wave, turning fierce and desperate.

He kissed her deeply, gently parting her lips to taste every inch of her.

It was as if he wanted to melt all the years they had lost over the last six years into this single kiss.

Noreen’s mind went blank for a second, her hands instinctively gripping the front of his shirt.

She could feel the violent pounding of his heart against his chest.

Thump, thump, thump, it echoed in her ears and hammered against her own heart.

It was a long while before Seth slightly pulled away.

But he kept his forehead rested against hers, their hot, ragged breaths mingling together.

He stared at her swollen,

kiss-bruised lips, intense emotion swirling in his eyes. His voice was incredibly hoarse. “If I kidnap the birthday girl right now will the crowd upstairs tear down the hotel?”

Noreen was speechless.

*They definitely would.*

“Stop playing around. I really have to go back.”

After all, she was the star of the night. If she stayed away too long, it would cause a

scene.

Despite his impulses, Seth knew he couldn’t actually do that.

So he simply demanded a small reward before letting her go.

He leaned in, his warm breath fanning against her ear. “Give me one more kiss, and

I’ll let you go.”

“My lipstick is already ruined.”

But seeing the stubborn desire in his eyes, she caved.

She stood on her tiptoes, resting her hands lightly on his shoulders, and pressed a brief soothing kiss to his lips, as if calming a restless predator.

“There, are you satisfied now?”

She tried to pull back.

But Seth wasn’t about to give her an avenue for escape.

The moment her lips began to retreat, his large hand cupped the back of her head turning the gentle reassurance into something entirely different.

He took total control, his kiss deeply aggressive as he claimed her mouth, stealing

the air straight from her lungs.

It was no longer a quick, pacifying peck, but a torrential storm of raw desire.

He greedily devoured her taste and breath, dominating her senses with undeniable physical power.

Noreen’s knees went weak from the sheer intensity, forcing her to cling to his shoulders as he swallowed her soft whimpers.

Before the breathtaking kiss could reach its conclusion, Noreen’s phone let out a short ping.

Before she could even react, a second and third notification chimed in rapid succession.

She quickly pushed Seth away and pulled out her phone. It was Claire.
