âHuh?â Raegan could only muster a surprised grunt after a brief, breathless pause.
She vividly recalled pouring a whole bottle of white pepper into the mix.
How could it possibly be okay?
Mitchel, with a calm tone, offered, âCare to give it a try?â
âWhat?â Raegan, puzzled by his sudden shift in conversation and about to inquire further, found herself abruptly drawn closer as Mitchel reached out, gently held the back of her head, and pressed his lips to hers.
At that moment, everything around them fell silent.
His firm grip on her, the way his lips explored the sweetness of hers, and his tongue created a whirlwind of sensations.
The ki*s, sweet with a hint of spice, was an exotic thrill.
Raeganâs eyes, wide and clear, showed her astonishment, forgetting to pull away.
Her mind cleared of everything but the intensity of his ki*s.
Memories of their past passionate encounters flooded her thoughtsâ¦
Her cheeks flushed a deep shade of red.
Everything he had said was indeed true⦠Under his spell, she had let herself go too farâ¦
Mitchel ki*sed Raegan, feeling the longing he had carried for so long, breathing in the scent of her hair that he found so comforting.
âMmmâ¦â Raegan started to come back to reality, trying to say no, but instead, her voice sounded more like a sigh, which only encouraged Mitchel more.
Mitchel held her tight, making it hard for her to move or get away.
At first, his intention was to teach her a lesson.
He was very sensitive to the smell of pepper, and he figured she must have added a lot, maybe even a whole bottle.
But as the ki*s grew more intense, his feelings took over.
He found himself wanting to ki*s her endlessly.
âBang!â Suddenly, the door burst open.
Matteo, his throat on fire from the soup, rushed in to tell Mitchel not to try it.
He thought Raegan could not have realized she added too much white pepper.
But after taking a big sip, it felt Like more than just a little extra.
It was as if a whole bottle had been dumped in.
Matteo didnât expect to interrupt a passionate moment.
Stunned, he opened his mouth but couldnât find the words, making only incoherent noises.
Mitchel gave Matteo a cold look, quickly covering Raeganâs messed-up hair with a jacket from beside the bed.
âWhy are you still here?â Mitchel scowled at Matteo, who seemed unusually slow to react today.
Matteo was frozen in place, wanting to leave but hesitated.
âMr.
Dixon, your neckâ¦â he said, his voice shaking.

Raegan looked up and noticed Mitchelâs neck was bright red, Looking like he was having a severe allergic reaction.
She gasped.
âDo you have a pepper allergy?â
Mitchel felt his own neck itch uncomfortably.
Matteo quickly added, âItâs not just pepper.
Mr.
Dixon reacts badly to all types of peppercorns.
â He wouldnât have interrupted if there wasnât a risk of a serious allergic reaction.
Seeing his neck turn red Raegan felt a mix of helplessness and guilt and started to cry.
âI had no idea⦠I added a lot of pepper.
.
Mitchel tried to calm her down, saying Lightly, âItâs alright.
Donât worry about it.
â
Luckily, they were at a hospital.
