With Lucas by her side, it felt as though Aurora had endless strength.
It was exactly because of this that she felt she had grown so much compared to before.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Lucas leaned in closer, his intentions crystal clear.
Startled, Aurora quickly pressed a hand to his chest. “I just had my makeup done, and besides…”
Her eyes flicked forward, signaling that the assistant was still in the driver’s seat.
Ian, ever tactful, raised the divider without needing to be told.
As an assistant, handling unexpected situations smoothly was essential–otherwise, replacement came quickly.
Meanwhile, Lucas caught her protest, caught her hand at the wrist, and bent close to her ear.
His lips curved as his deep voice murmured, “Rora, don’t worry, I’ll be gentle.
“Afterwards, I’ll fix your makeup.”
His whisper brushed against her ear, and Aurora’s lashes trembled. Her eyes shimmered, and paired with
his devilish looks and that low, sultry tone, he was like a siren drawing her in.
In the end, Aurora nodded, surrendering to him.
When it came to Lucas, she had no self–control.
It was as if the very word didn’t exist for her.
Realizing that, Aurora wanted to bury her face in her hands.
When had she become like this?
And yet, when it came to Lucas, she accepted it willingly.
As her thoughts scattered, his lips were already on hers.
Just that soft touch was enough to make her heart twist tightly.
At first, she closed her eyes and simply began to return his kiss.
After all, Lucas was the man Aurora loved. Faced with his tender touch, she had no defenses at all.
When she finally responded, Lucas‘ eyes opened slightly, a spark of excitement flickering within.
He liked taking things slow, watching the little lamb wander right into his trap bit by bit.

And when she was completely caught–that was when he savored the sweetness.

Sure enough, just as Aurora was marveling at his gentleness, the next second he shifted into a fierce
advance.
Aurora’s eyes flew open wide. Seeing the intoxicated look on his face left her stunned.
She tried to push at his chest–her makeup had just been done, and she still had a banquet to attend.
One look at her would be enough for anyone to guess what she’d been doing.
But the more flustered she became, the more exhilarated Lucas grew.
He caught the back of her head firmly, leaving her no chance to pull away.
In the end, Aurora gave up. A man’s strength was already hard to resist, especially Lucas‘.
She couldn’t budge him an inch.
Taking advantage of a breathless pause, Lucas released her lips only to murmur against her ear, his breathing uneven, “Honey, kissing requires focus.”
Aurora had just parted her lips to speak when he claimed her mouth again without missing a beat.
She sighed inwardly. Though helpless, this was the man she loved, so she let him.
Only when she was nearly breathless did Lucas finally let her go, though reluctantly.
Their foreheads pressed together, both of their breaths unsteady.
