LOGINArzhel opened his eyes, but he winced faintly when he saw the bright hospital lights above him. Veronica rushed to Arzhel. “Oh my gosh, Arzhel, are you okay?” she said worriedly. Arzhel didn’t react. He was still closing his eyes. I could see that his eyes were tightly shut. I think the light wa
I was watching the nurses as they checked Jessica’s blood pressure when I felt a hand touch my arm. I looked beside me and saw James. He smiled at me, but it didn’t reach his eyes. It was the smile of an emotionally tired person. “It was too late, Analia. I think you need to go home and rest,” he

Instead of listening, I faced him. I held his chest. I saw him gulp. My eyes went to his Adam’s apple. I touched it. My body was suddenly burning with desire too. I did not know if it was the effect of alcohol or him, or maybe both. I looked at him in the eyes. My gaze went down to his lips. My o
