Chapter 279 - Dating for real?! (1/2)
In that instant, Liam Jin froze feeling her tender, sweet lips touch his. For a second, he could not believe what was happening. He dreamt about it a million times and thought that it was just one of his hopeful wishes.
Hence, when his hand slowly run to Seraphina's hair and realized that she did initiate the kiss, Liam's unstable raging emotions slowly calmed down as he unhurriedly closed his eyes.
The kiss was supposed to be a quick light peck, alas, Liam still her head for a deep, long kiss; it was as if he was savoring every second and displaying his real d_e_s_i_r_e to her. Seraphina slightly flinched when Liam's lips moved and gradually took dominance. Yet, she neither moved away nor stopped him as she wanted to forget tons of problem; just this once. Thus, she heedlessly returned his passionate kiss though she almost forgot how and just follows her instincts.
Although Liam was being drowned with great joy and p_l_e_a_s_u_r_e when she responded and gave permission to do what he wanted to do for a very long time, Liam didn't forget the seemingly uncomfortable position of Seraphina. Hence, without breaking the kiss, he used a little force to pull her half body and make her sit on his lap.
Seraphina by instinct wrapped her petite arms around his neck and permit herself to be pulled like a little kid and sat on Liam's lap. They could feel their body heat rose with every passing second as the kissed intensifies.
Despite taking notice of other servants presence who sees them and immediately took their leave as if they were the ones embarrassed showing the brazen public display of intense affection -- Seraphina and Liam were unbothered.
The kissed last until both of their lips turned numb and a little swelled. Resting his forehead to hers, Liam chuckled. On the other hand, Seraphina lightly gasped for air as her breathing became ragged.
Hearing Liam's chuckles, Seraphina lightly bit her lower lips, restraining herself from laughing out loud. Thinking of the poor single hearts of the few maids that caught them, she found it funny how they scoot away as if their innocent eyes were tainted.
Lightly pushing Seraphina to see her slightly flushed face, Liam smiled tenderly at her adorable appearance. After all, it's his first time seeing her have this kind of expression. Normally, Seraphina only bears a bright expression and sometimes, a dangerous persona when caught off guard. God knows how many times it gave him restless night being reminded when Seraphina had those perilous gazes that were akin to a monstrous beast.
And then again, as usual, he neither said nor pried anything about it -- shrugging it all off and throwing the ambiguous speculation at the back of his head, because he only wants to see the beauty hidden inside her.
Scrutinizing his eyes, Seraphina could clearly see his lightened mood unlike earlier. From the past few days, Seraphina also noticed the difference in Liam's action and the indiscernible meaning beneath his eyes.
To her surprise, the surrounding of the hole had web-like cracks and only needed a little more push to widen its gap. Surely, she underestimated Liam and she overestimated her capabilities from shutting her heart.
Smiling back, Seraphina pursed her lips as she clears her throat and looks away as if she was too shy to say anything.
