187 KABEDON (3)

Lina's breathing got heavier as her sole attention was directed at the man whose face was inching closer to her.

Reuben smirked when he saw the obvious change in her breathing intake and stopped when he was just a couple of inches away from her face.

Staring down at her, he raised his right hand which was resting on the wall and gently caressed her cheek.

Lina's eyes softened when she felt his warm touch against her skin and she leaned into his palm that was tenderly cupping her cheek.

However, the warmth she felt disappeared because Reuben did not stay there for long.

He withdrew his hand and almost chuckled when he saw the sulking face that she had displayed for just a quick second.

'Why do your actions and your words convey such different things, Kitten?' He shook his head in dismay at this confusing woman who was constantly keeping him on his toes.
