Just help me out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With a sigh of resignation, I eventually succumbed to his persistent coaxing and unfastened his belt.<\/p>\n<p>In no time, the only sound that filled the confined space of the car was Luis\u2019s low, satisfied growls, a primal expression of pleasure that sent shivers down my spine.<\/p>\n<p>I turned my head to steal a glance at him. He remained impeccably composed, dressed in his tailored suit, his expression as calm as a still lake. Yet, the smoldering desire in his eyes betrayed the intensity of the moment; if not for that, no one would ever suspect the scandalous act unfolding within the car\u2019s shadows.<\/p>\n<p>When it was over, I stared at the sticky mess on my fingers, biting my lip in a mix of embarrassment and disbelief.<\/p>\n<p>Luis, ever the gentleman, pulled me into his embrace, reaching for some wipes from the glove compartment. He meticulously cleaned each of my fingers, his touch both tender and teasing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaby, you did great,\u201d he murmured, his voice laced with admiration.<\/p>\n<p>Though my cheeks were still flushed, his words ignited the heat within me once more.<\/p>\n<p>I glanced down, unable to meet his gaze, and muttered, \u201cYou\u2019re an asshole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luis\u2019s eyes widened slightly at my comment, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. \u201cThere\u2019s not much room here. I\u2019ll make it up to you tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I turned away, refusing to let him see the effect his words had on me. \u201cWho said I wanted you to?\u201d I shot back, my tone feigning indifference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh?\u201d He raised an eyebrow, his voice dripping with mischief. \u201cThen you can make it up to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I couldn\u2019t help but roll down the window, desperate to let the fresh air wash away the lingering scent of our encounter.<\/p>\n<p>Clearing my throat, I attempted to shift the conversation to safer ground. \u201cLuis, you promised, right? I covered your interest, so you\u2019ll help me investigate Felix.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luis arched an eyebrow, amusement flickering in his eyes. After a moment, he began to twirl a strand of my hair between his fingers, laughter bubbling up from his chest. \u201cIf you ever treat me as well as you treat Zelena, I\u2019ll count myself lucky.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The heat had been building all day, and now it felt like I was gasping for air, my breath coming in short, heavy bursts.<\/p>\n<p>Just then, my phone buzzed, ringing with an incoming video call.<\/p>\n<p>It was Violet.<\/p>\n<p>I answered, eager for a distraction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaby, I\u2019m coming back tomorrow! We have to have a sleepover at my place!\u201d Her voice rang out, bright and cheerful, cutting through the haze of my thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>Zelena had been in a bit of a funk lately; perhaps I should extend the invitation to her as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSure, I\u2019ll ask Zelena to join us,\u201d I replied, a smile creeping onto my face at the thought of a fun night ahead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWait, this doesn\u2019t look like your place. Deanna, where are you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just then, the bedroom door swung open, and Luis sauntered in, moving with the slow, confident grace of a wolf king surveying his territory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2260","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
