Love Drug Novel

Chapter 190 Stirring the Heat Finished Now that she had officially taken on the GloryPath Construction project , Summer needed to start preparing contracts and follow up details .

It was time to get Merry moving on the next steps Over the phone , Merry sounded hesitant .

Summer , what about Sienna ? What should we do about her ? Summer remembered Frasers promise he said hed look into it , and she believed him .

That was why shed had the confidence to take on the project in the first place .

Ive already got someone checking into Mason , Summer told Merry .

We should have answers soon .

Lets just move forward as planned .

After ending the call , Summer stared at her phone for a moment , lost in thought .

When did this happen ? When did I start relying on him to much ? Trusting him this much ? Shed never even felt this way about Trevor .

The realization unsettled her , Fraser came out of the bedroom , fresh from a shower .

He was wearing a black T shirt and gray lounge pants .

His damp hair was still dripping , and a white towel hung around his neck as he casually dried it off .

He leaned lazily against the kitchen doorway .

In the kitchen , her hair was swept up into a loose bun , revealing the pale curve of her neck graceful and poised .

She stood with her head slightly bowed , completely focused on making dinner.

The warm kitchen light cast a soft glow over her .

The shirt dress she wore highlighted her tall , elegant figure .

Her profile was soft and serene , her movements smooth and sure every step in the kitchen was practiced and graceful .

She looked effortlessly beautiful , relaxed , and completely at ease .

Fraser walked over slowly , each step confident and unhurried .

He slipped his arms around her waist from behind , resting his chin gently on her shoulder .

His voice was low , rough , and teasing .

Whats for dinner ? Summer was pan searing steaks when she suddenly felt his warmth at her back the solid weight of his body pressing gently into hers .

Before she could react , he had her in his arms , Fraser still smelled fresh from the shower clean soap layered with that familiar trace of pine that rushed through her senses .

For a split second , her mind blanked .

The spatula in her hand slipped slightly , and hot oil nearly splashed from the pan .

Fraser caught her hand just in time and flipped the steak himself .

Careful .

Dont zone out while cooking Seriously ? Youre the one who showed up out of nowhere and distracted me .

You should go .

Ive got it handled .

Didnt know you could cook , he said , still standing close .

Summer had actually picked it up years ago back when she was with Trevor But knowing how intense and possessive Fraser could be , she decided not to mention that part .

Chapter 190 Stirring the Heat Summer stared at him , speechless .

Just then .

her phone buzzed with a WhatsApp message .

With the spatula sull in her hand .

Summer said .

Can you check that for me ? I cant grab it right now .

Fraser picked up her phone from the counter and , without hesitation , unlocked it with a swipe .

Summer blinked .

Wait , how do you know my passcode ? I didnt tell you .

I guessed Summer pouted .

I couldnt even begin to guess yours Fraser casually said .

1115 Summer froze just as she was about to turn off the stove .

That was her birthday .

She was just about to ask why why hed use her birthday as his password when he spoke again .

Its from your assistant Summer snapped out of it .

Oh Ill reply to her later .

It was probably Merry updating her on work Fraser was about to lock the phone again when something on the screen caught his eye .

The name on t the screen was Jerk His brow lifted slightly Then , without warning , he leaned in and gently bit her earlobe .

Im the jerk ? Ah- She gasped softly .

It didnt hurt , but the light , teasing pressure sent a tingle straight down her spine .

Only then did she remember the nickname shed set for him a while back .

Finished That was just Summer started to explain , then gave up with a huff .

Well youre always teasing me .

What else was I supposed to call you ? Fraser tapped the screen again , casually opening the chat .

And then , without warning , his eyes landed on a message .

Its thundering .

Im scared His dark eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at those words .

He didnt remember ever getting that message .

Then it clicked .

That day .

Maximus collapsed with a sudden brain bleed .

Fraser had rushed to donate blood .

His phone , along with his clothes , had been handed off to the staff .

A heavy silence fell between them .

Summer quietly finished plating the steak , setting it on a white dish .

Summer , Fraser said , his voice low and a little rough .
