Lilia raised her hand and held Jean's palm that was still on her cheek. She smiled as she replied, "The biggest regret in my life is not meeting you earlier."
She wanted to make Jean understand how much she loved him. If possible, Lilia wanted to open her chest and let Jean see the love that filled her heart. Perhaps, she could dispel the worry that was clinging to the man's mind that way.
Jean's breath seemed to have caught in his throat when he heard that answer. A feeling of overwhelming love filled his chest. This woman was much more dangerous than any drug. The longer Jean was with Lilia, the more his hunger for her became. At this point, he couldn't imagine life without Lilia.
"After tonight..." Jean said in his deep hypnotic voice. "..even if you regret your decision, I won't let you run away from me."
