Severed Bond Fated Omega (Jason and Sophia) novel Chapter 57

The bed stirred. Before I could get up, a large hand pressed against the back of unexpectedly touched his jawline…

my head. My lips

My pupils dilated instantly. The delicate skin texture, the strong smell of hormones, warm, fragrant, and exquisite… the sensation was transmitted to my brain, detailed and crystal–clear.

Xander froze. He released his hand, tilted his head back, then put his hand on the back of my head again and gently knocked my head.

Our eyes met. One was stunned, the other expressionless.

After an unknown amount of time, I came to my senses, quickly pulling his hand away and standing up, quickly smoothing my hair and trying to regulate my breathing. “It’s 5:30. You really should get up.”

After speaking, I rushed out of the room as if I was running on hot coals.

Xander:…

He was silent for a while, then pressed the back of his hand against his eyes.

I rushed back to my room, washed my face, and saw that my face in the mirror was red as if it had been steamed.

I had only followed the work process to wake up my boss. Why did it turn into me kissing him?!

This was…

So bizarre! My wolf’s tone was full of uncertainty, “SOPHIA, I SNESED SOMETHING WHEN KISSING, BUT I’M NOT SURE…” I didn’t give it a second thought.

At six o’clock, I braced myself and went back to Xander’s room. Zane happened to arrive too. We both stood in the living room of the suite, waiting for Xander to come out.

While waiting, I looked at Zane beside me. I thought that he had followed Xander for so long, so he must have done this too. Did he… not? Or did he… experience it?

Images of Zane throwing himself on Xander, forced to kiss him on the face, uncontrollably appeared in my mind…

Ugh~~~

Oh my god.

“Ms. Wells, why are you looking at me like that?” Zane touched his face, disturbed by my confused, conflicted, and worried gaze.

“Nothing, nothing. I just…” I pressed my hand against my chest, “I feel that our job isn’t easy.”

“No job is easy. Just adapt.”

“…You have a good attitude.”

“What else can I do? Can I yell at the CEO?”

I pursed my lips. I couldn’t put it into words. He was right, there’s nothing wrong with what he said. But that… forgive my poor comprehension.

From the direction of the dressing room, Xander had been standing there for a minute, from the moment I looked at Zane with that series of expressions to the moment I said our job isn’t easy.

He lowered his head and rubbed his brow, smiling–a wry smile. He walked out.

“Mr Shaw.”

Zane turned around, and I followed suit. My eyes met Xander’s for a second, then quickly darted away, settling on his shirt buttons, looking respectful.

Xander walked towards the door. Zane and I followed behind him.

The car left the hotel and headed to ONE 15 Marina.

The car was quiet. I sat rigidly in the back seat, tense from neck to toe. I wanted to relax, but I kept thinking about that kiss. Oh god, I wish I could have amnesia.

“Ms. Wells.”

A low, melodious voice floated from beside me.

I reflexively responded, “Yes? Mr Shaw, what are your instructions?”

“Get me some water.”

“Okay.” I took a bottle of water from the small refrigerator in the car, opened it, and handed it to him.

He pushed the water back to me.“Here, take small sips. Relax. Don’t dwell on mistakes at work.”
