Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 38

Julie was a no–nonsense gal. Faced with Kieran’s naked body and the option to help him put on a towel, she didn’t hesitate to take the latter. Without any shyness, she yanked the towel off of Kieran’s body and then wrapped it around his waist.

Just as she had the towel secured around his waist, he suddenly fell back onto the bed, clutching her waist as he went down. Caught off guard, Julie found herself sprawled on top of Kieran,

With her hands pinned under him, she felt like her fingers were about to break. They were too close for comfort, Julie’s face pressed against his chest. His solid muscles warmed her cheeks, making her feel like her face was on fire.

She squirmed, trying to get up, but she couldn’t move with her hands still pinned under him.

Taking a deep breath, she sternly told Kieran, “Lift your hip!!”

“How?” Julie was quite a bit shorter than Kieran, barely reaching his chin, even with heels on.

In her current position, all she could hear was his voice coming from above her. She jabbed him in the side with her fingernail, coldly saying. “You’re pinning my hand, so lift your hip so I can get my hand out!!”

Surprisingly, drunk Kieran was quite cooperative, immediately lifting his hip. His movement, however, was a bit too vigorous.

The sudden motion of an already naked man made Julie flush in a thin dress. The satin cloth seemed to heat up instantly.

Julie, being so close, instantly felt the heat radiating off him. She only asked him to lift his hip, not to ram into her. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Finally freeing her hands, Julie turned to leave. But unexpectedly, Kieran suddenly grabbed her waist and twirled her around on the bed. Just when she finally freed her hands, now her whole body was trapped.

“Kieran, are you drunk?” Julie had seen Kieran’s charming eyes countless times. His gaze was too clear, not at all like someone who was drunk. If it wasn’t for the smell of wine on his breath, Julie would have thought he was pretending to be drunk.

But Kieran ignored Julie’s question, instead intentionally moving his hands that she was pinning down. Then, mimicking Julie’s earlier tone, he said, “Lift your hip!!”

Julie was speechless. After chasing this man for half her life, it was the first time she saw him drunk, She didn’t expect drunk Kieran to be so shameless.

Kieran’s request was hard to refuse. She couldn’t keep pinning his hands down, could she?

Julie looked up at Kieran and said, “Then don’t stand so close. How can I..

Before she could finish her sentence, Kieran suddenly grabbed her waist and forcefully lifted her up.

He was obviously much stronger than Julie. With her weight, he easily lifted her. The distance between them, due to Kieran’s action, instantly became dangerously close.
