Chapter 28 A meaningful, passionate encounter

The air-conditioning was spewing cold air roughly in the car. Nelissa was drenched and she curled like a shrimp as she tried to stay warm.

Her face was pale and her lips were blood red; she looked like a vampire.

Edward wrapped his arms around the trembling Nelissa; she seemed like she was going to vibrate her teeth off.

He instructed Andrew, “Turn on the heater.”

“Understood, Mr. Hales.” Andrew switched off the air-conditioning. It was actually getting quite warm as summer was approaching.

The car gradually became warmer as Nelissa’s face regained their color.

Edward then removed his coat and enveloped it around Nelissa. As he did, Edward realized that he could see Nelissa’s body through the soaked, transparent white dress.

He whipped out his handkerchief and started to dry Nelissa’s face and arms. Edward was surprisingly gentle although throughout the process he held down Nelissa’s arms to prevent her from resisting.
