Aftertaste

The sudden change in the atmosphere brought shivers to Neal's chest. The shivers weren't because the room temperature was cold but because he suddenly felt hot. The side of his ears turned red when Knox's hair brushed against his neck.

Neal couldn't even move because he was scared that his heart might beat so loud. He wanted to hide his face as much as possible since the mafia man was busy leaning onto him. His hand closed tight and then he bit his lower lip that quickly pouted.

If only the mafia wasn't injured right now, he would not let him do his way. Though he couldn't help but feel a little indebted to him because of Knox, they took down Beatriz. If this is just an ordinary day, he already pushed Knox or punched him in the face, but seeing the mafia in his fragile state, he just couldn't do it at all.

The mafia sighed and closed his eyes. The dizziness was still intact through his brain and this small ringing sound suddenly blasted his ears. He squinted and groaned.
