Chapter 71

Third person point of view

Sinui hastily placed both palms on her cheeks. "Persephone," He called out, while she was still struggling. "Persephone!" His voice was louder now.

She looked at him. "Ssh," He hushed her, growing nearer to her and then placing his forehead against her. "Take a look for yourself….."

His breath was subtly fanning her lips, and his eyelashes were tickling hers. Persephone had never been so up and close with Sinui before, she imagined that if she ever looked at him rather closely she would see the hidden errors in the features of his beauty.

But with her feathery eyelashes tickling his, and her chocolate eyes peering so deeply into the ethereal bottle green of Sinui's, she seemed to be more aware of every outline and wonderful angle that made up the model-like features of Sinui— and frankly it was an amazing sight to behold.
