Lounge.

Amanda Fuller dropped off the clothes and then left.

"Click"

The door was suddenly pushed open.

Aurelia Shaw didn't turn her head, "Why are you back again? Stay at the door and don't let anyone else in."

"..."

A moment of silence.

Aurelia felt something was off, her brow furrowing slightly as she turned to look back. When she saw Mason Nightshade standing right in front of her, her breath tightened, and her pupils constricted suddenly.

Mason's breathing was heavy, his eyes dark enough to draw someone in, his burning gaze fixed intensely on her figure.

His gaze moved downward, examining every detail like a scanner.

His eyebrows furrowed in confusion, as if he was curiously inspecting, what is this?

Aurelia was wearing an off-shoulder outfit today, so she was using adhesive bras; Mason probably hadn't seen such things before.

Under the lighting, she stood frozen in surprise, not expecting someone to suddenly come in. Until she felt uneasy from being stared at, she shivered suddenly and came back to her senses.

Aurelia's expression changed, she swiftly turned around, grabbed the clothes from the chair, covered herself, and squatted down.

Covering her important parts.

She looked back, her beautiful eyes glared at him, "Turn around!"

Not only did Mason not turn away, his gaze burned even hotter for a moment, dark as if it hid a churning magma, his deep gaze fixed tightly on the woman's slender, delicate back.

She was very pale, with flawless skin, and very thin, her bony spine tracing down her curved back to her lower waist.

She grabbed the new clothes from the chair and quickly began putting them on.

But just as she made a move, her arm was suddenly grabbed by a force, the man's hot chest pressed close, her lower back was embraced, lifting her off the ground and placing her on top of the table.

The cold touch made her body shiver slightly.

Mason's dark gaze looked down at her, not concealing the thoughts revealed in his eyes at all, his strong arm encircling her slender waist, rendering her unable to move, his warm breath brushing across her delicate face.

Aurelia lifted her chin, raising an eyebrow as she looked at him.

"Mason you..."

Seeing him suddenly lower his head to approach, her eyes flashed sharply, she turned her head to avoid him.

But her chin was caught by his large hand, forcibly kissing down.

Aurelia was very aware that if this continued, it would lead to trouble.

Their current relationship couldn't allow this to happen.

She bent her elbow and jabbed it into the side of Mason's neck. Normally, someone would either faint or lose strength instantly from a hit like that, but it had no effect at all on Mason.

Is this still a normal man's body?

It's been more than a year since Mason retired from the military, how is his physical condition still so good?

Although she had seen his muscles usually, having muscles and having strength are two different things. How does this man manage to exercise with his busy work schedule?

Mason didn't give her a chance to think.
