Chapter 59 I Want You

Today, Stefano was cautious about everything, not wanting to scare her again with his impatience. He waited, holding himself back even though his heart and body were at war, urging him to give in and kiss her with all the raw hunger throbbing through him. His restraint was agonizing, especially when she looked incredibly sexy and was so temptingly close. But seeing Leah’s cheeks flush a soft pink as she bit her lip, smiling shyly, was all the confirmation he needed. Her reply was everything—permission, temptation, and surrender all in one. It was as if the universe itself had conspired to grant his every wish at this moment, turning his fantasies into reality.
