Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 322 Natasha yelped , throwing her arms around my neck and pressing herself against me . At that moment , our eyes met . We could feel each other's breath on our faces . Natasha looked at me , dumbfounded . Then , as realization set in , her cheeks burned bright red , like ripe tomatoes . " You ... You planned this , Sebastian ! You bastard ! You set me up ! " she grumbled under her breath and struggled to get back on her feet . She managed to stand only for a moment before her sprained ankle decided to rebel .

She staggered , and I rushed forward , catching her hand and steadying her . " Okay , I can't deny I didn't watch where my hand was going the first time , but ma'am , you were the one who threw your arms around me the second time ! " I protested with a laugh . " I ... I don't care! You totally set this up ! You men are all schemers ! " she mumbled , her eyes shifting . Her frown stayed fixed as a sharp pain shot through her veins . Seeing her wince , I decided not to tease her anymore . Instead , I lifted her into my arms and carried her toward the couch . " Alright , alright .

I can't argue with someone this beautiful anyway . I'd lose , " I said with a chuckle . " You really should stop standing on heels . They're not doing your injured ankle any favors . Let's get you over there so I can see how bad it is . " Natasha hadn't expected to find herself nestled in Sebastian's muscular arms or to get such a close look at his impressive physique . Her heart was going crazy . Were they getting a little too intimate ? He set her gently down on the couch and removed her heels .

A pair of delicate , shapely feet - along with Natasha's long , graceful legs - suddenly filled Sebastian's view . " Sebastian ?! Hey ! Aren't you supposed to be checking my ankle ? What are you staring at ?! " Natasha was sure she was about to combust from embarrassment . " Oh , right ! Ahem , sorry , " I said quickly and forced my attention back to her swollen left foot . The injury was obvious against her fair , supple skin . I carefully moved it from side to side . " Does it hurt ? " She blushed and shook her head . " That's a relief ! You didn't hurt your bones .

I'll give you a massage while you rest a bit . You should be able to walk afterward , though there's probably some internal bruising . Whatever you do , don't soak your feet in hot water for the next couple of days . It could make it worse . " 1/2 Chapter 322 I rubbed my palms together to warm them , then began pressing gently along her foot and ankle . +25 Bonus Natasha shuddered the moment Sebastian started . The touch sent a jolt through her veins , all the way to her mind , and stirred a flurry of thoughts .

Was he really trained in massage , or just using this as an excuse to cop a feel ? Flashes of pain gave way to waves of relief . When she looked down and saw Sebastian's serious , focused expression , she realized he was genuinely trying to ease her pain . Slowly , she began to relax . A few minutes later , I heard a soft moan . I froze and asked , " What's wrong ? Did it hurt ? " She blinked , startled , then quickly shook her head . " N - No ! It's just ... you're really good at this . I'd never expect a CEO to be such an adept masseur ! " ADMINJ
