Kneeling for a Second Chance Novel

---- Chapter 338 'The car was quiet. Then, Valeria's gentle voice broke the silence. "I saw a few craft shops at the street fair. One of them had a crystal ball about the size of a palm. Inside the glass sphere was a girl wearing a blue dress, and a boy stood beside her. "I thought it looked a lot like us. I wanted to buy it, but there were several shops over there. I ended up buying a wooden cat ornament and forgot about it." Sebastian's dark eyes fell on the wooden cat ornament she mentioned. It was tiny and right at the air vent.

It looked a little silly with its little arm lifted , moving back and forth. He suddenly remembered that she always seemed to like these kinds of cute little things. The bunny keychain she had left him was the same-adorable and a little silly. "This is my car. Did you get it for me?" "It's for us," Valeria answered. Sebastian reached out and took down the cat. It was a small ornament carved out of wood, its carving still rough with the marks of the tools used. The workmanship was crude and sealed over with wax. Its arm kept swinging.

---- His thin lips parted, his voice low and hoarse as he repeated, " It's for us." Sebastian lived in an upscale apartment in Nashwark , where every inch of land was precious. It was about 3,200 square feet. Valeria had been here a few times, yet nothing seemed to have changed after three years. She suddenly remembered that in that period, he hadn't lived here either. The dog bed was still by the floor -to-ceiling window, which was where Nemo usually lay. When she walked in, she went straight to the refrigerator. She opened it, only to find it completely empty.

Frowning, she threw a few cartons of expired milk into the trash. She glanced at the time. It was still early. She had originally wanted to buy some groceries from the grocery store, but wondered how they would head back to Broburgh City tomorrow. Broburgh City was where her daughter and their little home were. Her grandmother was also there. Valeria thought that she wouldn't return to Slate City often in the near-except to visit Lucy. So, she took out her phone and ordered some groceries on DoorDash. Just as she placed the order, a burning chest suddenly pressed against her back.

Sebastian grabbed her wrist and lifted it, pinning it against the refrigerator. From behind, he began kissing her, his thin, ---- heated lips brushing slowly over the delicate skin of her neck. The phone slipped from Valeria's hand and landed on the carpet at her feet. She turned slightly to glance at it, only for Sebastian's lips to capture hers. His tongue tangled with hers. Valeria's thoughts were still on the phone at her feet. She wanted to bend down and pick it up, but her whole body was pressed tightly against the refrigerator. Asoft hum escaped her lips as her breath was blocked.

One of her hands was pinned high above her head, the other gripped tightly in his as he undid the only button on his suit pants. His dark eyes locked on her face, not missing a single flicker of expression . He noticed her faint flush on her cheeks , her half-lidded gaze clouded with desire , and how her gaze was no longer clear. She was slipping under, just as he was. What set him apart was the way his eyes held not only a burning desire but also a profound devotion. "Earlier this afternoon..." Valeria managed to whisper when. she finally caught her breath.

However, her words were immediately swallowed. He only allowed her one gulp of fresh air before kissing her again. He wasn't planning on letting her go. The kiss went on and on. ---- Valeria felt like a fish breaking the lake's surface on a rainy day, only to be plunged back under after one breath. Their lips pressed and parted, her breath was stolen, released, and taken once more. After a few cycles like this, Valeria's body was so soft that she could barely stand. If not for Sebastian supporting her, she would have slid to the ground. She couldn't take the way he kept changing his kisses.

Her voice came out low and hoarse, calling his name. "Sebastian... Valeria leaned weakly against his shoulder. Sebastian , still in the heat of his desire , lowered his head to kiss her hair. Looking at her lips, reddened and full from his kisses, he finally released them, only to press his lips along her neck. She instinctively wrapped her arms around his back. His searing kisses made her want to shrink her neck away, but because she was holding him, she ended up tilting her head back instead. Then, she rose on her tiptoes and imitated him.

She brushed her teeth against the side of his neck, causing his body to give asudden, violent shudder.
