Chapter 1088

Adam shifted his position and pulled Celine onto his lap to straddle him. “I’m not scared of pain. If you want to bite me, then bite me.”
He kissed her again.
Celine felt her whole body go weak. The moment he started unbuttoning her clothes, she pushed him back. “No!”
Adam looked at her with a deep, heated stare. “Don’t say no to me.”
Celine was worried. “Your body
“If you’re that worried, then stop wasting time. I’ve been wanting this for a long time.”
Celine hit his chest. “So you came looking for me just for this?”
“Yes. Is there a problem?” he asked.
She tried to hit him again, but he caught her in another kiss.
Then, Celine suddenly remembered she was pregnant. She knew being three months along meant it was safe, but she still worried he might get too rough.
She pressed a hand on his shoulder. “Wait.”
Adam kissed the tip of her nose. His voice was low and rough as he asked, “What now?”
“Don’t be too rough,” she replied.
Adam smirked. “Since when did you get this delicate?”
“If you don’t agree, then forget it.”
“Okay, I promise. I’ll say yes to anything right now. Celine, kiss me.”
He waited for her to respond.
Celine wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.
Celine didn’t know how much time had passed when she finally collapsed against his chest, covered in a light sheen of sweat. Adam’s shirt was rumpled, and his breathing was still unsteady.
Neither of them spoke. That quiet embrace after their passionate moment felt more precious than anything else.
After a while, Celine said, “I need to go.”
Adam kissed her forehead. “I’ll take you home.”
She refused. “No need for that. We’ve already been together for a long time tonight. I really need to go.”
Adam pulled her close. “Celine, I want to take you home and fall asleep with you in my arms.”
Her chest tightened. As long as the Heartstring Venom in Adam wasn’t cured, there was no chance for them.
The happiness they just shared now brought just as much pain.
Celine pushed him away and bent down to grab her clothes.

Celine felt a small discomfort in her stomach and instinctively placed a hand on her slightly rounded belly.
Adam pressed close from behind her. “What’s wrong with your stomach?”
She didn’t want him to know she was pregnant, so she shook her head fast. “Nothing.”
“Then why are you holding your stomach?”
Adam placed his hand on her belly
and gently rubbed it a couple of
times before saying, “Celine,
Kol
gained some weight havent you?”
She had felt touched at first, since it was technically his and the twins’ first contact.
But that warm feeling died the
moment he asked that snapped her head toward him el:
“You’re the one who gained weight!”
Adam laughed while still touching her stomach. “I’m serious. You’ve got a bit more here.”
He even pinched the soft spot on her belly.
“Stop that! What are you doing?” Celine smacked his hand away.
Adam pulled her into his arms and buried his face against her neck. “Celine, come home with me.”
