Luo no longer continued the debate since she was too busy absorbing everything that happened a while ago. A lot of things were going inside her head, baffling and confusing her. A lot of questions were doing rounds and even making her panic.

  'Is it really possible that he was jealous?' She mumbled trying to interpret Noah's reaction. Maybe Lana was right. Noah probably liked her… and whatever he said was not only because of the sexual tension between them?

  She heaved a long sigh then sneaked side glances at Noah. He looked calmer now compared to before.

  He was too focussed on driving and looked handsome even with a little stern look on his face… Luo was busy sneakily admiring his beauty when her mobile phone rang and she saw it was Daryl.

  She was about to answer her phone but was suddenly startled when Noah, in a quick motion, snatched the phone from her hands and answered it before she could say a single word.

  "I will appreciate it if you won't bother my fiance… I hope this will be the last time you did this or you will not like what I will do next. Move on and look for another woman."

  Mouth agape Luo stared at Noah in disbelief…


  That was the second time she heard the word 'fiance' for her from his mouth. It sounded like music to her ears but somehow she felt something was off.

  "Since when did I become your fiance?" She unconsciously mumbled with knitted brows.

  "Since today," Noah plainly answered and rendered her more speechless.

  'Today? Me? Noah's fiance? For real? When did I agree to it? No! When did he even ask me to be his fiance for me to agree?'

  Those thoughts were all over her that she didn't even notice they had already arrived at Noah's place. The irony of it was that she was not able to even say such a word as neither she wanted Noah to quit this thought nor did she know how she would react if he actually asked her the same!

  She came back to senses when Noah opened her door and said, "We're here…"

  Luo was still quieter than her usual self because she was thinking whether to confess to Noah but she felt the momentum at the moment was bad. She somehow did not want to look desperate.

  She then decided that it would be best that she let Noah talk and explain his side of the story first.

  She followed Noah but she stopped at the living area when her mobile phone rang.

  Seeing it was Daryl calling her again, she quickly answered the call and explained, "Sorry about what happened tonight Daryl. I know you're flustered. I will explain everything to you tomorrow."

  Then she immediately ended the call. She saw a lot of unread messages from him as well.

  "Stop that…" she heard Noah's demanding tone in front of her. She was about to type a message to placate Daryl because she was worried what he might be thinking of her at that time.

  She had never been close to any other male friend like she had been to Daryl so she was very concerned and it was clearly visible on her face.

  Luo met Noah's piercing gaze with knitted brows. She raised her eyebrows and irritatingly muttered, "Stop dictating me about what to do and what not!"

  Noah knew he was acting irrational but he could not help it. He was unable to bear any kind of interaction of Luo with that man Daryl.

  He knew Luo and Daryl were close friends and so he was more afraid if the one way love of Daryl was contagious and Luo got affected by his feelings! He better mark his territory before anything bad happened.

  He moved closer to Luo and grunted, "I don't like my woman entertaining any other men…"

  "Excuse me… who is your woman here?" Luo, with her chin up scorned.

  'Liar! You want to be her woman……' Her inner self immediately scolded her.

  Noah grabbed her mobile phone and with a stern look said, "Didn't you hear me loud and clear? You are officially my fiance from today. We can get married any day you want. I will let you decide when…"

  Luo held her breath because Noah was only an inch away from her face and she could feel his warm breath falling on her.

  "I will give you everything Luo. Just name it. You will have everything that you ever wished for…" Noah whispered as his stare went down on Luo's parted lips. The lips that had become like a dessert he was longing for ever since the first time he got a taste of it…


  'He will soon eat my lips again!' Luo thought as butterflies surged inside her stomach.

  "You're like a pill I'm addicted to…and I can't find a cure to it……" Noah hummed as he enclosed the remaining gap between their lips.

  Luo dreamed about it several times since that night… being kissed by him once more and feeling the warmth of his body.

  She honestly thought the same way. Noah was also like a pill to her that she seemed to be addicted too.

  She unconsciously responded to his hungry kiss. He was sucking her upper and lower lips alternately. She was copying what he was doing. She moaned when Noah's hand started roaming on her upper body, caressing her seductively.

  Noah stopped and stared at Luo. She blushed without her knowing and felt Noah touched her cheek with the back of his hand, gently caressing it.

  Both of them were out of breath and Noah still held her waist firmly.

  "I hope I have made myself clear Luo… I'm a very possessive person. I don't want my woman looking at any other man. You're mine… my woman."

  Luo gulped and whispered stutteringly, "I…… haven't…… agreed yet."

  She felt Noah touch her lips with his thumb and caress them, for the first time she saw a playful grin on his face.

  'How handsome!' She inwardly squealed. Noah exactly fit her idea of an ideal man. Those wavy brown hair with deep set eyes where she felt she was bare naked when he looked at her. His curly brown lashes, prominent nose and full red lips.

  "Your body is saying otherwise…" she heard Noah whisper right into her ears seductively, before he once again captured Luo's lips, sliding his tongue inside that instant. He could taste the dessert she ate combined with her natural sweetness.

  This time his hand once again roamed and easily managed to undress her upper body. He was dying to touch her bare skin.

  He did not leave Luo's mouth while he cupped one of her breasts and gently squeezed it, sizing it in his palm.

  Luo's closed eyes suddenly opened wide and with all her might she pushed Noah away.

  "Hey, who gave you the permission to touch my boobs?! No touching on sensitive parts unless we are married," she mumbled in her hoarse voice and quickly put back her bra and the strap of her blouse.

  Maybe next time she should wear a long sleeved dress with many buttons!

  Noah looked at Luo in disbelief. The woman was oozing with self-control that he was too tempted to breakdo!!!
