Chapter 727 What Will Become of Us?
Cherise burrowed her face into his back as she listened to the rhythmic thumping of his heartbeat, “Mm.”
Moments later, she took a deep breath. Her checks flushed as she murmured, “Darling.”
Damien nearly stumbled, and his figure instantly stiffened. After a moment, he gently put her down. He gazed at her intensely under the moonlight. “What did you call me?”
“Darling.” Under the moonlight, Cherise’s blush deepened as she met his gaze. “I haven’t uttered this word. in five years. It feels strange.”
“You’ll get the hang of it, Mrs. Lenoir. With that, he leaned in. One hand cradled Cherise’s chin, and the other was braced against the wall as he k*ssed her pa*sionately.
When their l*ps met, a click was heard behind Cherise. The entire institute was suddenly bathed in light.
As light flooded the room. Cherise instinctively shut her eyes. But with her eyes closed, her other senses heightened. She could feel every ounce of the man’s tenderness and affection as he k*ssed her.
