CHAPTER 12: "Do You Know What Unique Tastes Like?"

  The moment Lucas kissed me, my mind went completely blank.

  His lips were soft, his cool fingers gently lifting my chin as the kiss deepened, slowly and thoroughly. Every touch sent goosebumps down my spine.

  I forgot to resist, but I also didn't reciprocate.

  "Wow!"

  A voice exclaimed from nearby, followed by cheers and applause echoing through the room.

  My senses returned, and just as they did, Lucas pulled back, ending the kiss.

  He didn't move far; his face remained close to mine, his deep, ocean-like eyes carrying a softness I couldn't decipher.

  "I like your taste—unique," he said, his low, magnetic voice laced with sensuality. For a moment, it made me feel like we truly were a couple.

  Flustered, I glanced to the side and caught sight of Daniel's expression—it was as dark as a storm cloud.

  "Not many women can make Lucas lose his composure," a teasing male voice suddenly interrupted.
