Chapter 861
Even After Death
Ethan hugged Olivia in silence. He had no intention of forcing her.
âMiss, now that things have come to this point, letâs leave other matters aside. We can talk about them
later. Now, we gotta solve your situation. I know you donât want to give yourself to others. But thereâs no
other solution we can opt for.â
He took a breath before continuing, âI can guarantee you that I wonât tell anyone about tonight. After
today, nothing will change. Everything will be the same. If you donât like me, I can⦠ask others to
replace Like Joshua or-
She covered his mouth, glaring at him. âIf I have no other choice, Iâd rather it be you.â
At least, they knew each other well.
However, she didnât want to take it that far.
Unlike her words, her body was following her instinct, grinding against his.
Hugging the manâs waist no longer satiated her need. The urge to proceed to the next step was killing
her.
Images of intertwining with Ethan on the bed flashed across Oliviaâs head.
She wanted it; she wanted it so badly.
He scooped a part of the hem of her dress and bit down the veil.
She became uneasy. âW-What are you trying to do?â
He slowly covered her eyes with the veil. âMiss, you can think of me as anyone.â
She still couldnât shake the shyness off as she stammered, âLogan, no. I-I can still hold on-â
He drained the cold water in the bathtub before refilling it with warm water and turning the lights off.
Only the dim light from outside lent them some brightness. It wasnât striking to the eyes; it fitted the
mood.
Frantic grew in Olivia. She pushed Ethanâs chest. âI-Iâm not ready yet.â
Ethan bent over, whispering in her ear, âYour body has been ready for it since a while ago. Itâs just that
your heart isnât ready yet. Donât worry, I donât want your heart.â
Like a demon, he said in an undertone, trying to open her up.
He cupped her cheek gently, and that simple move made Olivia tremble uncontrollably.
Her eyes were covered, sc she couldnât see anything.
Darkness consigned her to uneasiness, yet it was the best prompt to feel the mood.
She didnât know what she should do..
She grabbed Ethanâs shirt with one of her hands while the other was fluttering around.
She touched his mask, which was cold and hard.
He prompted, âTake it off for me.â
The manâs voice sounded more attractive in the dark. It was so low that it reminded her of Ethan..
Olivia thought that she had gone mad for still thinking about that man at this moment.
She reached out to the back of his head to untie the ribbons.
The mask dropped into the water, and water droplets splashed against her skin.
She could feel Ethanâs gaze on her. âD-Donât look at me.â
Okay, I wonât look. He knew that she was almost losing control.
Her rationality was still battling against her instincts, attempting to prevail over the latter.
Therefore, he wasnât in a hurry. He didnât want to put her under pressure or make her uneasy when it
came to this kind of matter.
âMiss, I swear to my name that Iâve never touched another woman before.â
Oliviaâs cheeks were burning. She felt that she was on fire.
She honestly didnât care about his past.
Her sole wish was to leave, but her body wrapped itself around his. Her instinct was telling her to take it
to the next step.
The strings of rationality were tightening.
She bit her lip, and a helpless sigh brushed her ear.
He touched her lips. âDonât bite it. It hurts me to see you do that.â
