James noticed Aria swallowing repeatedly after he made his bold statement. The flush on her face deepened to a rich, crimson hue that spread down her neck, her lips parting slightly as if she wanted to speak but couldn't find the words. Her eyes darted away from his intense gaze, unable to meet his piercing stare, as though she was trying to collect herself, trying to mask the nervous energy that now filled the air between them. Her hands clenched at her sides, fingers twisting in the fabric of her blouse as if seeking some form of anchor in the sea of emotions she was clearly drowning in. It was subtle, but he didn’t miss a thing—every flicker of her expression, every small gesture betrayed her inner turmoil.

The warmth of his palm against her sensitive skin sent a rush of desire straight to her core."You decide," she said, her voice light with teasing playfulness, but underneath it, there was an undeniable edge of anticipation. "Because whatever you do, it feels amazing."Her breath hitched as she leaned into him, her fingers trailing lightly across his chest, feeling the rapid beat of his heart beneath her touch.James’s eyes darkened with an even deeper hunger as he watched her, the flame of desire burning brighter with every second.

    Aria stood there, her emotions churning as she absorbed James's words. The casual way he spoke made it difficult for her to read his true feelings, but the weight of his confession lingered in the air. She had never expected to hear him express such regret, especially when they had already crossed the boundaries of their relationship in ways she couldn't even explain. She had known from the moment they met that James was different, but hearing him admit it so openly was both flattering and confusing."Really?" she finally asked, her voice catching slightly, unable to hide the sudden vulnerability that bubbled to the surface.It was strange how easily he could make her feel like the center of his world, even when she hadn’t expected it.James, sensing the momentary hesitation, gave a playful shrug, the corner of his mouth curling into a smile.
