faint hint of fragrance about her.
Her room, a place he seldom ventured into, was now Brittany’s domain
The once–cold room was now brimming with the charming essence of femininity, filled with her personal belongings even a massive pale pink body pillow on the bed.
He peeled back the covers and gently laid Brittany down.
Her skin was smooth as silk. As he released his hold, she clung tightly to his hand, her lips faintly moving as if to say something
Frowning tightly, he leaned in closer to hear what she was murmuring, but to his surprise, as she shifted her position, their lips accidentally met.
In that moment, a wave of intense emotion surged through him,
Isaac’s eyes widened. He’d had physical contact with Brittany before.
But back then, they were both unconscion
He’d never kissed Brittany and had never even thought about it.
Yet here it was a touch as light as a cherry blossom, a kis devoid of passion that still managed to leave a profound impression on his heart.
Lowering his gaze, he looked at the woman before him.
She was frowning, seemingly uncomfortable, and attempting to pull away.
Almost instinctively and without giving it a second thought, he grabbed the back of her head, halting her retreat, and countered with a kiss of his own. An
Infamiliar emotion seemed to invade his soul.
By the time he came to his senses, reaking he’d lost control, her cheeks were flushed and her brows furrowed in discomfort.
Releasing his hold he took a few ragged breaths.
Looking at the sleeping Brittany he was filled with an urge to possess her.

Isaac was acutely aware more than anyone else, that emotions could drive even the most rational person to the brink of insanity.
He shouldn’t be feeling this way, especially not towards Brittany
Raising his hand, he began contemplating how to handle this situation.
Unny woke up at four in the monning
She was oblivious to what had happened last night
After freshening up, she continued to work on her designs, finally finishing them all by six thirty
Just as she was out to start making breakfast, the door swung open.
Isaac appeared, his expression turning colder at the sight of her up and about, the memory of last night flashing in his mind.
“Good morning Zakky”
Brittany, realizing she’d fallen asleep without having dinner the previous night, felt a pang of quilt: “What would you like for breakfast?”
Isaac met her gaze, his thin lips moving slightly. “You don’t need to prepare meals for me anymore!
Britany was puzzled by his unusual behavior; her gaze faltered. “What happened?”
Did she do something wrong last night? Why did Isaac seem upset?
“Nothing I just tynk we should keep some distance
Headed too much emotionally in Brittany. It seemed like ever since the incident where he’d injured her waist, their relationship had become strained after he’d treated her, entering a strange period of peace. This wasn’t good.
Upon hearing his words, Brittany was taken aback. Had she really done something wrong? –
She wanted to ach for clarification, but then realized she had no right to.
His intl offer to take her in was only due to their past acquaintance.
Finally, Brittany said bluntly, 11l be getting paid this monill move out. Thanks for taking me in all this while.”

Watching her retreat to her room, Isaacs Adam’s apple bobbed up and down before he smally left.
