My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 74

Chapter 74

Ashlyn wasn’t going to give in so easily. She tried again, but no matter what she tried, Lucas would always be able to deflect her ‘attacks.’

He was also able to sneak kisses along her neck and on her face…

Things were getting pretty heated.

Ashlyn’s body grew increasingly warm.

The Spirogyra, which had been dormant for half a month, was awakening again with a vengeance.

She realized that her body was completely unable to resist Lucas.

If it were anyone else, she could have easily bashed his head in.

But this was Lucas…

With the Spirogyra in her, there was nothing that she could do to resist.

At that very moment, she really hated the blasted body of hers.

Lucas grabbed her waist tightly and pressed her body against his. He then leaned in and kissed her on her lips.

Time slowly ticked by.

Lucas carried Ashlyn to the bathroom to clean up before placing her back on the bed.

He lowered his head to look at Ashlyn who was tucked beside him. He put his hand on her waist and pulled her closer.

After having tired herself out, the woman had already fallen asleep.

There was a nice, fresh scent to her, likely from the body wash used earlier. Her long hair was scattered around Lucas’ neck and chest. She appeared to be in deep sleep.

Lucas used his finger to gently brush the hair away from her face. He used an arm to prop his head up, before staring at the beauty in front of him.

She is so beautiful. As beautiful as a goddess.

Lucas subconsciously relaxed his habitually creased brows.

Even though the atmosphere felt easy and relaxed, there was something about her — maybe it was her breathing or something — that still felt inexplicably distant and subdued.

One of these days, I’m going to peel back those layers and learn everything about her!

The man caressed her face gently. His body tingled at the soft, silky touch.

He took a deep breath then pulled his hand back. Finally, he lay back down next to her and hugged her tightly in his arms.

By the time they woke up, two hours had already passed.

Ashlyn had felt slightly exasperated with herself. She had found herself in this awkward position twice that day already. Even her breathing was filled with awkwardness.

When Lucas felt her movements, he too opened his eyes. There was a barely detectable hint of affection in his eyes.

Their eyes met for a few seconds, and immediately, the atmosphere turned awkward.

Out of nowhere, Lucas’ arm snaked around to the back of her head as he pulled her towards him.

He pressed his lips against hers as his tongue gently traced her lips.

Ashlyn slowly closed her eyes. All her senses were flooded with him.

The kiss didn’t last too long. When Lucas pulled away, there was even a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

She had finally come to accept that her body very likely couldn’t do without Lucas.

Because every time Lucas got close to her, she would immediately melt into a puddle of water.

Darn it!

Outside the room, a brisk wind was blowing. The sound of raindrops hitting the windows could also be heard.

Apparently it had started to drizzle.

“Will the rain affect your flight?” frowned Ashlyn slightly.

Lucas took hold of her slightly cold hands and tried to warm them up in his. “I’ll only know later during the meeting. Come on, let’s get up. We need to get ready to go to the airport.”

“Okay,” nodded Ashlyn.

Ten minutes later, they were both properly dressed and ready to go.

Lucas was dressed in his captain’s uniform and had his pilot’s cap in one hand. He looked dashing and even had an imposing air about him. Those long legs of his were especially mouthwatering. In fact, he looked so stunning that it was as if he had walked straight out of a magazine.

Ashlyn, on the other hand, was wearing a pair of tight-fitting jeans. The fabric clung to her, showing off the lines of her toned legs. She also had on a beige-colored coat, paired with a pair of sneakers. Her whole ensemble made her look especially youthful.

Both man and woman were outrageously good-looking.

They stepped out of the hotel and were immediately enveloped by cold air and raindrops.

Lucas personally drove them to the airport.

Ashlyn would take a glance at the scenery every so often during the ride.

After they arrived at the airport, Lucas finally handed a plane ticket to her.

She perked an eyebrow up, as she reached for the ticket. Then she heard the magnetic-sounding voice say, “I’ll head to the meeting first.”
