The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow over the spacious bedroom.
Chen Lin stood in front of a whole body mirror, adjusting her earrings as she prepared for the day ahead.
Today marked her first day on set for The Noble's Shadow, and Director Peng would be introducing her to the rest of the cast.
She needed to be focused and professional.
But the man behind her had other ideas.
Wu Yuxuan stood close—too close—his hands lazily wrapped around her waist as he nuzzled against her neck, his lips brushing against the sensitive skin just below her ear.
His warmth, his scent, the sheer possessiveness in his touch sent a shiver down her spine.
"Wu Yuxuan," she warned, shooting him a glare through the mirror's reflection. "I need to get ready."
"You already are," he murmured, tightening his hold. "Just five more minutes."
