CHAPTER 204

"You know, Raven, there is an age-old belief that sharing food from the same plate creates a special bond between two people. Would you care to put that theory to the test?"
Raven's heart skipped a beat as she nodded, a playful smile tugging at her lips. He knew exactly how to make her heart flutter.
Xavier selected a succulent piece of fruit and delicately placed it between his lips.
Their eyes locked, an unspoken understanding passing between them, as Raven leaned forward and captured the fruit with her own lips.
Their eyes were locked as they shared the morsel, the chemistry between them becoming stronger with each passing second.
It was a dance of temptation and restraint, a game played with glances and subtle touches that left them both craving more.
