......
When Gary descended the stairs, he noticed Celeste. She was reading a book, with her slender and beautiful neck leaned to one side, seemingly gorgeous.
He stood by the stairs, not in a hurry to leave, in fear of disturbing Celeste.
She looked calm and quiet, like a beautiful painting hung in a gallery. No one dared approach her in fear that the peacefulness of the moment would vanquish.
She seemed to have sensed a pair of eyes on her, so she lifted her gaze to look in the direction of the stairs.
She immediately noticed Gary. He was wearing the jacket she had worn earlier. His brows were thick, with his prominent features shining through the distance.
His body stance was menacing. She could feel his dominance even from a distance.
Her mind drifted off to the hug they had shared upstairs just then.
