Alina agreed to think about Hendrick's proposal. She needed some more time to think about it since it was too sudden. But then, something even more unexpected happened.
Alina was petrified when Hendrick suddenly kissed her. He even dared to open her mouth and kiss her deeply.
She was too shocked to even move but she managed to try pushing him away but he held her in place.
His lips were soft and he smelled nice but she was still scared of him. She gasped when his warm tongue explored her mouth.
Due to her memories of being married to Aiden, she was no longer ignorant of what happens between a man and a woman. She had kissed Aiden and had done the deed with him on their wedding night and before he departed for war. But it wasn't a pleasant memory.
