Chapter 380\u00a0<\/p>\n
But a simple kiss wasn\u2019t enough. A voice inside him cried out for more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell wrapped an arm around Larissa\u2019s waist, pulling her into his lap.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLarissa,\u201d he murmured, his voice soft, \u201cI know you weren\u2019t finished just now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa settled into his embrace without a struggle, meeting his intense gaze with a bold, unflinching stare. \u201cYou\u2019re right, I wasn\u2019t,\u201d she admitted freely. \u201cI was waiting for you to make a mover\u00a0<\/p>\n
She paused, then added, \u201cThis time, it has to be longer.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAs you wish,\u201d Haskell chuckled, then lowered his head and kissed her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa closed her eyes, surrendering to the sensation. She wasn\u2019t sure how much time had passed, but her head began to feel light, her lungs burning for air.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As if sensing her need, Haskell ended the kiss the very moment she opened her eyes. His arm remained firmly around her waist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWas that enough?\u201d he asked, his voice low and husky.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa\u2019s smile was dazzling. \u201cIt\u2019ll do. An improvement on last time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she started to pull away, Larissa noticed three sets of eyes fixed on them. Haskell sensed it too. He followed her gaze and saw three small, brightly colored snakes on the bed, staring intently in their\u00a0<\/p>\n
direction.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell froze. He knew she could control venomous creatures, but he was still surprised to find three of them in her room. Their gaze was unnervingly intelligent, filled with a curious scrutiny.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa sighed, half\u2013exasperated, half\u2013amused. \u201cShadow, Snowy, Sage, haven\u2019t you ever heard of giving people some privacy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sage shook its head, then pointed its tiny, sharp tail at Haskell before forming a heart shape with its body next to Snowy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell blinked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa nodded at the snake. \u201cThat\u2019s right. He\u2019s the one I love.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sage seemed to have an epiphany and immediately turned to communicate with Shadow and Snowy. Snowy bobbed its head in agreement. Even the usually stoic Shadow nodded along.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell was dumbfounded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre they\u2026 communicating?\u201d he asked, a note of disbelief in his voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa laughed. \u201cYes. They\u2019re saying that you must be the person I\u2019m always kissing in my dreams.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIncredible,\u201d Haskell breathed, his eyes filled with a tender, smoldering affection. \u201cSo, you have been taking advantage of me in your dreams? More than once, it seems.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa didn\u2019t deny it. She sat beside him and lifted his leg onto her lap, rolling up his pant leg. She gently probed the muscles around his knee.\u00a0<\/p>\n
09:31\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 389\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMore than once, yes, but only twice,\u201d she confessed. \u201cIt\u2019s not like I\u2019m constantly having scandalous\u00a0<\/p>\n
dreams about you!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell let her work on his leg, feeling a growing strength return to the muscles.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you were just quenching your \u2018thirst\u2018 by dreaming of me?\u201d he teased.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After confirming that her treatments had significantly reduced the pain in his joints, Larissa pulled out her needle case.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I\u2019d rather quench my thirst directly,\u201d she retorted playfully. \u201cBut you\u2019re the one who insisted on being responsible and waiting until we\u2019re married.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell\u2019s expression turned serious. \u201cI want to give you the best experience,\u201d he said, his voice sincere. \u201cBeing unable to use my legs would definitely affect my performance.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His words made her laugh. \u201cOh, I\u2019m well aware of your noble intentions, Haskell.\u201d She paused, a curious look on her face. \u201cBy the way, have you ever dreamed of me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course,\u201d he said, his gaze intensifying. \u201cThe very first night after I came back from finding you in Spire Village, I dreamed of you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa hadn\u2019t expected that. \u201cTsk, tsk. Dreaming of me right after we met. So\u2026 what did you dream about?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
