Kneeling for a Second Chance Novel

---- Chapter 339 Their breathing grew longer and heavier. Sebastian stared at her intently, taking in the beautiful flush on her cheeks that was so alluring. Desire rose in him, and he felt as if his heart had come back to life at that moment. His Adam's apple moved as he swallowed, his long fingers deftly undoing the buttons of her blouse. His voice was low and hoarse as it brushed against her ears. "' Can we keep going?" "[.."" Valeria's slender, fair fingers clutched the fabric of his shirt on his back, wrinkling it in her grip. Sweat lingered on her palm.

Her lips were dry, her breath unsteady, and her mind scattered. It took effort to find her voice. "Didn't we already do it this morning?" Valeria remembered how they had done it from lunchtime until the afternoon . She had been exhausted to the point of being drained. However, Sebastian had no intention of letting her off tonight. The cool ridge of his nose was pressed against her forehead. "Tonight is our wedding night, though," he whispered, coaxing with his husky voice.

---- His hand moved, his long fingers sliding down the bridge of Valeria's nose and his fingertip pressing against her lips. When Valeria didn't answer, his fingertip rubbed gently. She felt a tickle on her pink, pretty lips and instinctively licked them. Her tongue happened to brush against his finger. Sebastian's eyes darkened . She grabbed his hand. "Even on our wedding night, you have to let me rest a little." "Who avoids sex on their wedding night?" His question sounded fair, almost matter-of-fact. Valeria held onto his hand, unmoving.

For a moment, his blunt, rough words left her speechless. Her rescue came in the form of the doorbell-her delivery had arrived. Taking the chance, she ducked out of his arms and ran into the bedroom. Once inside, she realized she was in Sebastian's home. Where could she even run to? Hearing him open the door to pick up the order, Valeria locked the bedroom door behind her. When it grew quiet outside , she went into the bathroom to take a shower. There were no women's toiletries here-only his body wash and his pajamas.

She was covered with the cedar-scented body wash, and his loose black silk robe draped over her body. It was almost like wearing nothing at all. She tugged at the collar several times before opening the door and stepping out. ---- Sebastian was leaning against the headboard. He lifted his eyes and looked at her. Her skin was as fair as porcelain, glowing against the black robe, and her long hair was half- damp. Her hand lightly held the collar close as she walked barefoot across the pale gray wooden floor, leaving a trail of wet prints behind. His bedroom looked as pristine as a showroom.

Valeria sat down at the vanity. In the mirror, she saw her reflection. Fresh out of the shower, without moisturizer , her face would soon dry. However, since she was staying here tonight, there were no women's skincare products in Sebastian's home. Then, she noticed a brand-new, unopened skincare gift set on the table. She opened it -there was toner, cream, eye cream, and even lotion. He must have ordered it for delivery while she was in the shower. Valeria put on face mask, then saw in the mirror that Sebastian had walked up behind her without her noticing.

He picked up the bottles one by one, reading them. Finally, he took the lotion, squeezed some into his palm, and rubbed it between his hands. A faint fragrance filled the air. He sat down on the footstool beside her, took hold of Valeria's foot, and set it on his knee. His palms slowly massaged along her calf. ---- She could feel his gaze, exactly where it fell. Valeria instinctively pressed her legs together , but his hand kept moving, sliding from her calf up to the inside of her knee. And then, by accident, his hand was caught in her thighs.
