Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 677 Gwenn And Evanâs Unexpected Visit To Cheriseâs
âWhat a fortunate arrival, Mr. Lenoir Weâve barely had a chance to secule in Gwen commented with a hint of
sarcasm.
Damienâs eyes narrowed, a cold mix of hostility and contempt. âI suppose Iâm three minutes late, or I could have
greeted you both at the door and shown you the way outâ
The man walked in, his arm casually draped around Cheriseâs shoulder with a smile He directed Gwenn, âMs.
Tanner, I believe youâre aware that your presence here is unwelcome You intrude into Cherryâs place unannounced
at this early hour, then I can certainly return the favor and pay you and Mr. Tanner a visit in the early hours of the
nightâ
Gwennâs eyebrows furrowed into a tight frown. âYouâ¦â
The man flashed Gwenn a menacing smile. âYou know Iâm capable of it. I have ways of finding out where youâre
staying, sending someone over in the dead of night, perhaps even taking a few intriguing photographsâ
Gwennâs face paled instantly; she couldnât believe Damien dared to threaten her!
âYes, Iâm threatening you,â Damien affirmed, his gaze unwavering âSo, you have two options. Take your little
boyfriend and disappear within a minute. Or, prepare yourself for your intimate photos to be spread far and wide
across the internet. You choose?
âDamn you, Damien!â With that, Gwenn grabbed Evanâs hand and stormed off, her high heels clicking angrily
against the floor.
Watching Gwenn storm off, Cherise felt a wave of satisfaction wash over her. She turned to Damien and flashed a
grateful smile. âThank you.â
âNo thanks necessary,â the man replied nonchalantly as he strolled in and closed the door, his eyes twinkling
mischievously. âI believe I mentioned that verbal gratitude isnât my preferenceâ
Cherise bit her lip, and in a spontaneous moment, she leaned in, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his lips.
The moment their lips touched, an electric jolt surged through their bodies, causing them to freeze in place. Their
hearts pounded in unison, their cheeks flushed with sudden heat
Caught up in the moment, Chense realized she might have crossed a line Instinctively the tried to pull away, but her
wrist was firmly held by the manâs grasp
Damienâs eyes, filled with intensity, beld Cherieâsgan The kiss thingh brief had reminds spark within hum
Years ago, when they were still together, she had showered him with light kisses like this one. But now, five years
had passed, and neither was the same person they once were. The sudden familiarity of her touch, the lingering
memory of those past affections, sent a surge of heat coursing through Damienâs veins.
âCherry,â he murmured, his voice husky with desire.
Already flustered by the unexpected kiss, Cherise found herself further flustered under his smoldering gaze. Biting
her lip, she stammered, âThat⦠just forget it⦠as if nothing. happened.â
Before she could react, the man swept her onto the sofa, his hand reaching up to gently trace her glossy lips with
his rough fingers. âHow could I possibly pretend that nothing happened?â
Cheriseâs mind spun under the manâs intoxicating warmth. She looked at him, her eyes clouded with desire. âYouâ¦â
âShh,â he whispered, leaning in to gently kiss her earlobe. He could feel her body tense beneath him. âAll you have
to do is kiss me, excite me, and the restâ¦â
