Chapter 102 The burning desire

“I love you,” she whispered again.

“Oh, sweetheart.” Vincent put her on her feet. He cupped her face and stared at her. His gaze was gentle, full of love. He bowed and kissed the tears that rolled down her cheeks.

“I hate when my woman cries,” he murmured in her ear.

He enveloped his arms around her and drew her to his chest. Natalia’s breathing hitched. She raised her head and met his eyes that burned with desire. Her heart leaped to her mouth when she saw his gaze lingering on her lips. Then she felt his fingers trailing on her cheek. Her eyes closed inadvertently.

Vincent used his thumb and index finger to hold her chin and lifted her face a little to have a better view. His thumb gently grazed her bottom lip. Natalia squeezed his shirt on his chest, her breathing shallow. His touch caused tingling feelings all over her body, adrenaline coursing through her veins.
