บททั้งหมดของ Your Lips to Mine #2: The Billionaire's Secret Garden: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

The morning light filtered softly through the windows, casting a warm glow over the shop that makes everyone feel that this place is a haven, Sophia stepped inside. There was something different in the air today. The heavy tension that had loomed over her shop for days, like a storm cloud that refused to dissipate, was gone. Instead, it felt lighter—almost like a deep breath after being underwater for too long. She paused for a moment at the door, taking in the familiar sight of her shop. The shelves were neatly stocked, the counters polished, and the soft hum of quiet conversation filled the space as customers milled about. Everything seemed so normal, so... calm. But it felt strange, like the world had shifted just slightly, and for once, Sophia wasn’t sure if she was ready for it. The shop had always been her safe haven, the one place where she could maintain some semblance of control, some sense of normalcy. But recently, nothing about her life had felt normal. It was as though

Sophia was fast asleep when her phone buzzed sharply, cutting through the silence of the room. She groggily reached for it, barely able to see the screen with her tired eyes. The glow from the phone illuminated her face as she squinted, the name on the display making her heart race instantly. *Alexander.* Her fingers trembled slightly as she swiped the screen, answering the call. "Alexander?" she whispered, her voice still thick with sleep. The sound of his voice came through the line, deep and husky, sending a shiver down her spine. "Sophia," he said, his tone edged with something that made her pulse quicken. "I’m at the back door of your shop." She sat up in bed, her heart hammering in her chest. It was the middle of the night—what was he doing here? The questions flooded her mind, but all she could focus on was the sudden, overwhelming desire to see him. To feel his presence, his warmth. "I’ll be right there," she responded quickly, her voice now more awake, filled with antici

Sophia's heart pounded as she lay atop Alexander, their bodies still intertwined from their recent bout of passion. She could feel the warmth of his skin against hers, and the slow, steady beat of his heart beneath her chest. The world seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of them in this intimate bubble of ecstasy. Alexander's fingers continued to trace lazy patterns on her back, his touch both comforting and arousing. He broke the silence, his voice low and husky. "Sophia," he murmured, his breath warm against her ear. "There's something else I want to try with you." Sophia lifted her head, curiosity piqued. "What is it?" she asked, her blue eyes searching his brown ones for answers. Alexander hesitated, his gaze dropping to the curve of her ass. "I want to explore something... deeper," he said, his voice filled with a mixture of excitement and uncertainty. "Something more intense. Are you game?" Sophia's heart skipped a beat. She had never considered going that far, but the

Sophia had spent the morning lounging around her home, trying to catch up on the much-needed rest after the long and intense days she’d had. But as the afternoon wore on, she felt a familiar presence. The doorbell rang, and she immediately knew who it was—her best friend, Mia. Mia had always been the type to show up unannounced, often with a flurry of energy that could light up any room. When Sophia opened the door, Mia stood there with her usual bright smile, her eyes scanning her friend with curiosity. "Sophia!" Mia practically shouted, stepping in and immediately hugging her tightly. "How are you doing? I haven’t seen you in forever!" Sophia chuckled softly and returned the hug. "I’ve been better," she admitted, offering a playful smile. "Been a little sore." Mia raised an eyebrow. "Sore? What do you mean sore?" Her eyes widened as she took a step back, a teasing grin spreading across her face. "Wait… is this about what I think it is?" Sophia felt her cheeks heat up at the loo

The silence in the room was deafening after I finished speaking, my heart still pounding from everything I had just learned from Marissa. I sat there, the phone pressed to my ear, the weight of her words hanging in the air like an unspoken truth that I was desperately trying to avoid. I couldn’t believe it—*I* couldn’t believe it. Marissa had just told me that the Kane Corporation wasn’t done with the land yet, that they were planning to take it all on their own, no strings attached. How could this be happening? Was Alexander really involved? Had I been blind to everything that was happening right in front of me? But I had to hold on to one thing, one truth that I clung to like a lifeline. Alex—Alexander—*he* wouldn’t do this. He promised me. The words he spoke to me, the way he held me in his arms, it couldn’t have all been a lie. He wouldn’t take the land from my family. *He couldn’t.* I refused to believe it. Trying to steady my breath, I responded to Marissa, feeling the weight
