Chapter 707 You’re Not Hot Enough

Chapter 707  You’re Not Hot Enough

Right after dinner, Ethan went to look for his grandmother to give her the bracelet he had asked to be made for her.

He had already given Joanne and his mother the bracelets that had been crafted for them, which made both ladies very happy.

This was especially true for Catherine, who wouldn’t be able to stay with Ethan for a long time because she still had to return to the Lands of Saraqael.

She really liked the bracelet because this was Ethan’s first gift to her, and she promised to treasure it well.

The young man was also happy to see how much his mother liked the gift he had prepared for her.

However, when it was time for him to give the bracelet to Agnes, the old lady just chuckled and returned the bracelet to her grandson.

“Ethan, I’m already old, so jewelry doesn’t really fit my style,” Agnes said. “So why don’t you give this one to your best friend as a gift? I don’t know if she will like it, but I have a feeling that she will accept it.”

“Give it to Nicole?” Ethan blinked. “She doesn’t wear accessories. Actually, I’ve never even seen her wearing earrings, necklaces, or bracelets. The only time she wore them was when we were in the Palace of Wisteria to receive our titles as Honorary Knights.”

Ethan could still remember how gorgeous Nicole was back then.

She was already beautiful, but the moment she put on a dress, styled her hair, and added some accessories, her innate beauty was highlighted, making almost every single young man at the Royal Party look in her direction.

“It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t like wearing accessories,” Agnes chuckled. “Nicole is still a girl, so I’m sure that she will like this gift from you.”

There was a glint in Agnes’ eyes that Ethan failed to notice.

The Old Lady really liked Nicole because she was a strong-willed lady and cared for her son, though as a good friend.

They claimed that they didn’t have any romantic feelings for each other. Despite that, she believed that the young lady would always help her grandson in his time of need.

Since that was the case, a gift like the bracelet would prove how much Ethan cared for her.

Agnes didn’t know if the two teenagers would go beyond being friends. But if it was possible, she wanted to give the two a little push, and this bracelet was a good way to keep the ball rolling.

Ethan, who had no idea what his grandma was plotting, nodded and went to look for his best friend.

After asking Lily if she saw Nicole, the young lady told Ethan that Nicole had gone straight to her room after dinner.

“She seemed quite pale when she went to her room,” Lily said. “I think you should check up on her. You were so busy finding those crystals and helping with the preparations for our wedding that you forgot to warm her up.”

“You’re right,” Ethan scratched his head. “I forgot.”

Lily smiled before standing on tiptoe to give Ethan a quick peck on the lips.

“Go,” Lily said. “Before you forget again.”

The young man nodded and also gave Lily a quick peck on the lips before climbing up the stairs to go to the second floor, where Nicole’s room was located.

“Nicole, it’s me,” Ethan said as he knocked on the door.

Just as he was about to knock a third time, the door opened and he felt a strong sucking force, pulling him inside the room.

The moment Ethan was dragged inside the room, the door closed and locked itself firmly on its own.

When Ethan regained his senses, he found himself lying on the soft bed, with a young lady hugging him tightly.

Although there was no light inside the room, his senses picked up Nicole’s familiar scent and the sudden cold that washed over his body like a raging tide.

Ethan subconsciously shuddered, for Nicole’s body was as cold as ice. However, this wasn’t the first time he experienced something like this, so he knew what to do, and he did just that—he gave his best friend a tight hug.

He also placed his hand on Nicole’s head, and pulled her closer to him until he felt her cold breath tickling his neck.

The young lady’s body trembled from time to time, which made Ethan hold her tighter.

“I’m sorry,” Ethan said. “I should have warmed you sooner.”

If Ethan had known that Nicole’s condition was this bad, he would have helped her sooner. But it was too late for regrets now.

The only thing that he could do was to hold onto her tightly until her body stopped trembling.

Nearly an hour later, Ethan finally realized something.

Nicole wasn’t wearing anything, and he was holding onto her naked body.

He didn’t notice this right away because the only thing he felt at the beginning was her icy cold skin that felt like ice.

It didn’t feel like a normal human body, which would have felt warm to the touch.

But with this realization, calmness also washed over his body.

Nicole trusted him enough to allow him to hold her like this without feeling bothered that he was a young man and that she was a young lady.

“Stay with me for the night,” Nicole said weakly as if she finally found the strength to speak.

“I will,” Ethan promised. “I’ll warm you up until you stop shaking completely.”

“You’re not hot enough,” Nicole said. “Take off your robe.”

Ethan didn’t say anything and simply took off his robe, as well as his shirt. He kept his pants on and used his naked upper body to press on Nicole’s body, making her sigh in pleasure as his body heat transferred to her through skinship.

Their chests were pressing against each other, So Ethan could feel Nicole’s beating heart.

She could feel the same, and the pleasant feeling made her feel drowsy.

Soon, she fell asleep in Ethan’s arms.

The young lady had been enduring the cold for several days and hadn’t gotten a good night’s sleep in all that time.

She didn’t try asking Ethan for help, knowing that he was busy with the wedding preparations.

So the moment she felt her body warming up, all the worries in her heart disappeared, making her exhaustion rise to the surface.

This caused her to fall asleep, leaving herself open to Ethan’s mercy.

Summoning a thick blanket, Ethan covered the two of them and closed his eyes to sleep as well.

Nicole was special to him, and he would not do anything to break the trust that she had given him.

Soon, he also fell asleep, and the powers inside his body churned, flowing toward the young lady’s body and calming the Deity that had started living inside Nicole’s frozen heart.
