Chapter 100: Under The Influence

I sat on the edge, grabbing his hand. I beamed warmly, even though I knew I wouldn't get an answer from him. I raised my hand, stroking his hair to the side to see his fine-looking features. This man never failed to amaze me with his confront. His long lashes were enough to attract any woman. I played with it, hoping he would wake up and stop me since he hated it when I made fun of his lashes, but nothing happened.

I sighed in defeat, biting my tongue to stop my emotions from bursting out. I placed his hands above my chest, where my heart was beating. I breathed in, letting the oxygen go through my lungs.

"I'm sorry for leading you into this situation, my love," I whispered, stroking his chest.

"I didn't want this to happen, believe me. I just wanted to help you, to give us another chance to live and have normal lives."
