Wanda In Black Silk Stockings, Ch 2.2

"First, let's get her back to the Avengers."

Hode shook his head helplessly as he looked at Wanda leaning against the back seat, her gaze wandering. Who would have guessed he'd run into Wanda in such a place? As he adjusted her legs hanging outside the door to close it, she suddenly grabbed his wrist with her cold, slender hand.

"What's wrong?"

Hode asked, seeing the flush of redness on her cheeks with an inquiring expression.

"Did you really mean what you said just now?"

"Am I really not wrong?"

Wanda's eyes sparkled as if she had caught sight of her own shining star. Since that incident, all she had faced was public scorn. The misunderstanding of the masses and the selfishness of the authorities left her feeling completely lost. That was why she had come to this secluded place to drown her sorrows.

Yet, unexpectedly, the person before her had unraveled her tangled emotions and stood steadfastly by her side.

"Yes, you've already worked very hard!"

Hode's voice was resolute.

In the next moment, Wanda suddenly pulled back, a flash of crimson light flickering in her hand. A surge of energy propelled him towards her. In that unexpected moment, Hode found himself pushing against Wanda's shoulders. They tumbled into the back seat, faces mere inches apart, breathing heavily.

In that instant, it wasn't just the scent of alcohol that enveloped him, but also the faint aroma of jasmine mixed with cedarwood. The closeness of their faces made even a seasoned warrior like him feel his heartbeat quicken.

Wanda's galaxy-like blue eyes seemed to ensnare his gaze like a black hole.

"Um..."

Hode opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

"Don't speak!" Wanda closed her eyes, her eyelashes fluttering, just like a flower that allows him to pick it.

Hode stood frozen, utterly surprised that things had unraveled in this unexpected manner. If he couldn't grasp Wanda's intentions now, he might as well have lived as a fool all these years. After a moment's hesitation, he leaned in and kissed her.

When they finally pulled apart, a thin line of saliva linked their lips. Wanda blinked her moist eyes, shimmering like a tranquil lake, charmingly vulnerable. The corners of her lips trembled slightly, perhaps from nervousness, adding to her allure...

At this point, there was no turning back! To hesitate now would be akin to losing an opportunity!

"Bang!"

Hode clenched his teeth, flipping over to close the car door.

He had always adhered to one principle: when something is within reach, there's no reason to refuse it. 

Seeing Hode's movement, Wanda gasped, "What are you trying to do?"

"Do!" Beneath the setting sun, the last rays of daylight bathed the black car's roof.

A black Cayenne proudly displayed its impressive suspension system!

Despite this, I still sway to the rhythm, bit by bit!
