Suddenly, the atmosphere transformed into a hazy ambiguity, a misty veil descending upon them.
Willow's gaze met Jasper's, and the man instinctively drew her into his embrace, a protective gesture
against her potential fear. Then, her grip tightened around his waist, a true reflection of her genuine
fright. In that instant, their faces hovered mere inches apart as the rhythm of their breaths was a
tangible bridge between them.
Her eyes and brows glistened as if touched by the kiss of rain, emanating a liquid luminescence that
momentarily stole his breath away. Despite the dimness of the room, his eyes burned with undeniable
intensity. At this moment, her breaths became shallow as she wrapped her arms around his neck and
lifted her face slightly as a silent invitation for him to kiss her.
Meanwhile, Jasper struggled to restrain the tempest of emotions coursing through him. Amidst the dim
light, his tall stature enveloped Willow in the corner of the room, akin to a wolf asserting its claim over
territory, resolute in not letting her leave and preventing others from prying.
A nervous gulp traced down her throat, ensnared by the heady symphony of pheromones that
enveloped them both, drawing her inexorably closer to the man's inviting neck. On the other hand, his
breath hitched, his resolve finally yielding as he gently cupped her chin, guiding her with tenderness as
his slender lips met her flushed ones.
After having suppressed their desires for too long, this kiss erupted with fervor as soon as it began.
However, Willow was slightly taken aback as an undercurrent of sweetness and surprise swept through
her, overwhelming any uncertainty. Every fiber of her being was tightly held in the man's embrace as
his passionate kiss consumed her. In this corner, amidst the dimness, they carved out a small world—a
sweet sanctuary untouched by others.
Time appeared to lose its hold as their lips intertwined until an inquisitive stray cat leaped onto the
windowsill outside, breaking the enchantment and capturing the attention of Jasper, who held the
blushing young woman in a fervent embrace.
As she was pressed against his sturdy chest, her face turned a shade of pink as her breaths
quickened. She spoke softly, "What's the matter?"
"Meow!" The little cat outside seemed equally startled, meowing frantically. Then, he sighed and said,
"Just a little cat."
Willow's lips curved into a smile, but their haven was abruptly illuminated again, exposing their intimate
moment. Flushed with embarrassment, she buried her face into Jasper's embrace, feeling self-
conscious after the intensity of their kiss.
However, his fingers caressed the back of her head as his chin lightly grazed her hair. A silent sigh
escaped him, a mixture of contentment and shared vulnerability.
At that moment, Willow's phone rang. Jasper gently released his grip on her on the couch, saying, "You
should take that call!" With a quizzical intrigue, she contemplated who might have called her at this
hour. Retrieving the phone, she was taken aback to find her father on the other end.
"Hello, Dad!" Her words flowed from her with a poised composure.
"Willow, where are you?" Her father's voice held a hint of concern.
"I'm... at a friend's house."
"Come home early."
"Dad, is something wrong?" Willow immediately sensed that her father was keeping something from
her.
"I just received a notification that a group of mafia members has entered the country and has targeted
the family," Elliot divulged.
At this, her expression grew serious. "Okay, Dad, I'll come home early."
After hanging up the phone, she turned to the man behind her. "My dad wants me to come home early."
"All right, I'll take you home," Jasper said, guessing what her father had discussed with her.
"When will we be able to meet again?" Willow asked with reluctance.
"I believe we'll meet again soon," he reassured her.
Then, he led her to the underground parking lot, where he drove out of a car and met with the external
bodyguards. Together, they escorted her back home.
The Presgrave Family had encountered their fair share of trials and tribulations, narrowly escaping
danger on each occasion. With the expansion of the family business, the stakes had risen
proportionately.
Willow's inner strength had also grown significantly. She courageously accepted everything that came
her way, confident that her father and elder brother would ensure the safety of their family.
"Willow, try not to go out too much during this period and stay with your family," Jasper advised her.
