Narissa let out a muffled sound, and when she looked up, her eyes shimmered with unshed tears, making her look both aggrieved and irresistibly alluring.

Even someone as stoic as Bastien couldn’t help but subconsciously swallow at the sight. The way his Adam’s apple bobbed was unexpectedly sexy.

Narissa was a little dazed by the sight.

Up close, he was really pleasing to the eyes.

Those chest muscles were quite attractive.

Without thinking, Narissa reached out and gave a little tug at his collar. The movement drew Bastien’s eyes to her hand.

Without meaning to, he ended up getting a perfect view of the tempting scene revealed at her neckline.

Bastien thought, ‘She’s really talented in that area!

As soon as that thought flashed through his mind, Bastien immediately shut his eyes.

Bastien thought, “How could I be having these kinds of thoughts about Narissa? What the hell is wrong with me?

‘I’m such a perv

But even with his eyes squeezed shut, that alluring image kept looping in Bastien’s mind, making his breath come faster despite himself.

Meanwhile, Narissa was lying on top of Bastien, able to sense every little reaction from him.

When she realized that Bastien’s body was actually responding to her, a subtle, mischievous smile played at the corners

Narissa thought. ‘So the War God, who everyone thinks is as cold and aloof, is just a regular guy after all.

of her lips.

Just a little teasing and he’s already reacting.

‘How could I possibly let such a golden chance to mess with him slip by?‘

off him.

“Get up!” Bastien thought he’d calmed down enough, so he closed his eyes and ordered Narissa to get

Narissa let out a pitiful response, pretending to be aggrieved, and got ready to push herself up using his chest.

But just as she was halfway up, she suddenly fell back onto him.

This time, she was even closer than before.

Her lips were so close, they nearly brushed against his thin, ascetic lips.

This time, it wasn’t Narissa who let out a muffled sound–it was Bastien.

Her sweet scent and soft body was quite tempting to him since he had been celibate for years.

Bastien’s breathing suddenly grew ragged, and the desire he’d just barely managed to tamp down came roaring back, twice as strong.

To make things even worse, Narisa was unconsciously writing again, thin, completely unaware of

much she was teasing him.

He thought, ‘If this kept up…

any crazier.

“That’s enough!” Bastien suddenly pulled her up with him as he sat up, stopping her before she could drive him

Narissa looked up at Bastien with those wide, misty eyes, all innocence and a hint of hurt, like a scared little kitten.

Bastien’s breath caught in his throat at the sight.

He thought, ‘I forgot that she might really just be an ordinary gril from the Everton family.

“Get up,” Bastien said, giving Narissa a gentle push as he stood up himself.

Narissa puffed out her cheeks in a pout, looking all pitiful as she got ready to stand.

She cried out as she fell backward.

She let out a soft gasp, instinctively cradling her left ankle with her hand.

“It hurts!” she cried out.

As she looked up at Bastien, their eyes met–he was already gazing down at her.

Her dreamy, charming look held a subtle, irresistible allure.

Her charm made Bastien’s heart race uncontrollably for a few beats.

He instinctively clutched at his chest.

He thought, ‘What the hell?

Why is my heart beating so weirdly all of a sudden? Did something go wrong with it?‘

“Bastien, I think I twisted my ankle…” Narissa called out, noticing Bastien was still spacing out and deciding to grab his attention.

Bastien immediately looked down at her again.

Then, as if something had just occurred to him, he quickly took off his coat and draped it over Narissa.

After hesitating for three seconds, he actually picked her up in a princess carry right there in front of everyone,

At that moment, all of Bastien’s men hiding in the shadows had looks of utter shock plastered across their faces.

They thought, ‘Heavens. Is Bastien okay? He always acted like women didn’t even exist. Now he is carrying a girl in his arms in public.

‘Is the apocalypse coming or what?

‘He even knew to take off his coat and drape it over her. Is this kind of thoughtful, attentive move really something Bastien could pull off? He is known for being cold, after all!‘

The guys shared a look and nodded knowingly at each other.

They thought, ‘Damn.
