NovelStartThe two of them didn’t continue talking after that, and Lucian had moved from massaging her temples to massaging her shoulders.
When he was moving his hands, he either intentionally or accidentally brushed his thumbs across her neck.
Roxanne was caught off guard, and her body froze when she suddenly felt as though an electric current had coursed through her.
In the next second, Lucian was already massaging her shoulders. “How are you feeling? Am | pressing too hard?” he asked softly.

She was startled, so she immediately retracted her eyes and nodded. “It's fine.” Little did she know Lucian wasn’t planning to let go of her just yet. “I don’t know which acupuncture point can help you relax. How about you teach me?” As he was talking, he loosened his grips.
In a flash, the atmosphere became ambiguous.
Roxanne feigned calmness and cleared her throat. “Why would you want to know that? It's not like you can massage yourself.” In a natural tone, Lucian answered, “Well, | can help you destress if you ever get this tired again.” Roxanne’s eyes flickered, and she felt her heart skip a beat when she heard those words.
“Besides, | don't think I'll be massaging myself. If both of us ever have our hands full at the same time, one of us ought to take some time off. Otherwise, who's going to take care of the kids?” Lucian added.
In other words, he was suggesting Roxanne massage him the next time he needed it.
Lucian spoke so naturally that Roxanne could imagine the both of them massaging each other in the future.
In fact, she was even starting to feel it wasn't too late for Lucian to care for her.
When Roxanne realized what was going through her own mind, she snapped back to her senses, and she instinctively moved her body a little. However, she couldn't bear to move away because she had been overwhelmed by exhaustion lately. Besides, Lucian was using just the right amount of strength when he was massaging her.
After a moment of hesitation, Roxanne remained sitting still. “Some other day perhaps? I'm too tired today.” Needless to say, Lucian noticed her hesitation. As he was wondering what she was thinking, his grip loosened up slightly.
Feeling displeased, Roxanne held his wrist and said coyly, “Harder.” Lucian’s eyes darkened when he saw Roxanne holding his wrist. It's obvious that she was rejecting me purely because she was tired. She’s not rejecting me entirely.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucian was looking at her intently from behind. Although he could only see the back of her fair neck, he felt a lump forming in his throat.
Suddenly, he tightened his grip on her shoulders and held her tight.
Roxanne frowned slightly and turned around, wanting to question him.
All of a sudden, she felt his hot breaths on her ear. In the next second, he was already kissing the back of her neck.
Roxanne clenched her fists, which were placed on her knees, and she kept her body slightly sideways. Too afraid to move a muscle, she asked, “Lucian, what—" The second she opened her mouth, she felt Lucian kissing and nibbling on her earlobe.
At that very moment, Roxanne felt her body heating up, and the exposed parts of her body turned pink.
Lucian grabbed her chin and turned the stunned Roxanne to an angle to allow himself to go in for a kiss.
