Love After a Steamy Affair

After rubbing their ears and temples together for a while, Gabriel let go of her and panted unsteadily as he pressed his forehead against hers.

She was also panting slightly. Her cheeks were as red as the morning glow, though she looked like a delicate flower blooming in the night, making her even more beautiful.

She steadied her breath and reached out to turn off the shower. “In the end, you’re the one who suffers. Tell me, are you losing out?”

Seeing the sly smile that flashed across her watery eyes, Gabriel took her breath away again.

This time, he was punishing her for gloating earlier.

When her legs went weak, he took the opportunity to put her into the bathtub. He also went in and the water in the bathtub overflowed.

Serenity accompanied him to take a bath after all. After coming out of the bathroom, her legs were still weak.

Lying on the bed, she heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom. She was worried about his health and shouted, “Don’t wash yourself in cold water. It’s not good for your health.”

A few minutes later, Gabriel came out of the bathroom while drying his wet hair.

Serenity looked at him and knew that he had taken a cold shower. “What if you catch a cold?”

“If I don’t wash with cold water, you won’t be able to sleep tonight,” said Gabriel with a half-smile.

Serenity’s face turned red, but she was still worried that he would catch a cold. She was about to go downstairs to get him some medicine and let him drink it in advance as a precaution.

“Where are you going?” asked Gabriel when he saw her putting on her bedroom shoes.

“I’ll get you some medicine. Drink some to prevent a cold,” said she.

When she walked past him, he grabbed her wrist. “No need. I’m not that delicate.”

“But…” What if he really fell sick?

“You still have the strength to walk, Serene?” He narrowed his eyes when he saw her hesitation.

He dragged out the last sentence with a deep meaning.

Serenity recalled the scene in the bathroom just now. Her face flushed red and she jumped onto the bed and crawled under the covers.” I don’t care about you anymore.”

Gabriel dried his hair and lay down beside her. He raised his hand to turn off the lights. In the darkness, her voice trembled slightly. “Don’t touch me with your hands.”

“Don’t be nervous. I just want to hug you to sleep. What’s there to think about?” He whispered softly into her ear.

Hearing his laughter, her ears turned hot. She buried her head in his arms and muttered something to blame him.

“You’re really annoying. Sometimes, you’re terrible.”

“Is it bad?” Gabriel lay on his side and looked at her.

“Of course,” said she with certainty and a nod.

“Then tell me, when did I become terrible?” His eyes darkened.

Serenity knew he was teasing her. She angrily said, “See? I didn’t wrong you.

You’re terrible now. You only know how to bully me.”

Hearing the laughter coming from his chest, she felt relieved and her tired eyes narrowed into a line.

Gabriel hugged her tightly. “I won’t bully you in this lifetime. And i won’t allow anyone else to do so either.”

As she was too sleepy, Serenity did not hear what he said clearly and fell into a deep sleep instead..
