Butterflies exploded inside Arissa's stomach like fireworks and she have never felt so cherished in her life.
He kissed her so well, first slowly and she caught up with him perfectly fine. But then, the once slow kiss roughened.

The innocent morning kiss became something else.

Arissa had accepted it then but now it hurt her that he would only feel lust for her. And now, after the issue with his ex-girlfriend that damaged him this way, would he ever feel affection for her?
