Atticus' POV:
I looked at Eloise. I could feel the flow of electricity on my hand. I was starting to lose control of my breathing.
The surrounding scenery became blurry. I only have her in my eyes. She felt the same way.
I knew we couldn't get too close because this was her family's corridor. However, we couldn't resist this instinct.
Her lips were like the most mesmerizing pudding I'd ever had. I wanted to get close and taste it again...
I tried my best to control myself and not get too close. Otherwise, I'd completely lose my last bit of self-control.
"Atticus, Eloise, you're both here?" Soren's voice came from behind us. I returned to my senses and removed my hand from Eloise's shoulder.
Before I completely lost consciousness, this was indeed a help. At the very least, we still managed to maintain our last bit of dignity here, and we didn't lose our rationality.
But I didn't want him to be here, I was sure.
