The dense humidity seemed to seep into Suin's ears as Jaehee's lips captured her earlobe, suckling with unrestrained hunger. His hand guided her limp one inside his loose shower robe, pressing it against his warm skin.

The moment her palm touched him, it trembled uncontrollably.@@novelbin@@

"I can’t keep my promise to take my time devouring you," he murmured, pulling his lips and tongue away from her ear.

As Jaehee leaned closer, his slightly flushed face came into view. He spread her trembling fingers, guiding them to trace the taut, solid curves of his muscles.

"Lee Suin, I want you so much it’s driving me insane."

His skin was softer and smoother than she’d expected, yet the firm muscle beneath seemed alive, twitching with restrained energy. Her hand stopped as it hovered over his chest, where his heart beat furiously.

Thump.

Thump.

The rhythm was so strong it felt as though his heart might burst through the iron-like walls of his chest.

"Should I hold back?" he teased.

Suin’s eyelids drooped as she looked into his face. Even though his patience had clearly worn thin, there was a sincerity in his gaze as he waited for her response.

It was strange.

For a man so used to getting what he wanted without asking, he was now putting the decision entirely in her hands during this pivotal moment.

Perhaps it was because he valued her.
