After leaving the artificial dungeon, Noah took a bath and rested, a few hours later he was invited by Lilith, and they went for a drink and one thing led to another they somehow ended up in her room.
Their kiss continued, a wild exploration fueled by newfound desire. Noah's hands, calloused yet gentle, roamed her back, sending shivers cascading down her spine. Lilith, caught in the throes of passion, felt a sudden, burning need for a moment's pause.
With a breathless gasp, she pulled away from his lips. "Wait," she murmured, her voice thick with desire, "one second."
Noah, his eyes glazed with a mix of passion and confusion, blinked at her. The intensity of the moment threatened to consume him, yet he respected her unspoken request.
