Obedience No More He's the One I Deserved novel Chapter 170

Even if it sounded a bit subjective, Dawn had a gut feeling Andy meant no harm.

Ethan pressed the corner of his mouth. "I never said I'd kill him. How is that illegal? It only becomes illegal if he actually does something wrong.

"Anyway, leave this to me for now. If I sense anything off or if I can't handle it, I'll tell you. Okay?"

Seeing Ethan look unhappy made Dawn smile. She cupped his face in both hands.

"Mr. Jackson, I'm not saying this to make you mad."

Ethan let her hold him. His voice was a little muffled. "Then why?"

"For respect."

Dawn looked into his eyes. "I won't hide anything from you. But please respect my choice."

When their eyes met, Ethan felt a wave of heat he couldn't explain. It hit him like a rock dropping on his chest. He put his hand on Dawn's back and pushed her down gently but firmly.

They drew closer. Their breaths tangled.

Ethan smiled in a way that made Dawn feel weak. Just as she was about to kiss him back, someone knocked on the door. Hannah called, "Dawn, Ethan, dinner's ready. You guys can come down."

...

Dawn turned her face. "That's cheating."

"What did I do?" Ethan tilted her face back into his hands.

He kissed her softly, then kissed her again.

His kisses were different from everything else. They were tender and fierce at once. He smiled like sunlight cutting through clouds.

"Babe, I feel like one kiss isn't enough."

Dawn blinked. "Maybe you've never kissed anyone before?"

...

Her line broke the mood.
