Apollo's surprise kiss left Stella briefly frozen, her mind racing to comprehend the unexpected turn of events. His lips firmly pressed against hers, stealing her breath away in an instant. A mixture of shock and fascination washed over her as her heartbeat echoed in her ears. Time seemed to stand still as the kiss deepened, and Stella's hand instinctively found its way to the nape of Apollo's neck, her fingers gently threading through his hair. Despite her earlier reservations, she found herself surrendering to the unexpected surge of emotions that the kiss stirred within her.
As they continued to kiss, Stella's body pressed closer to Apollo's, her free hand finding its way to his broad chest. She could feel the heat radiating from his body, and it ignited a fiery sensation within her. Her fingers traced along the contours of his chest, exploring the unfamiliar yet exciting feel of his strong frame.
The kiss grew more passionate, each second fueling the intensity between them. Their lips moved in a synchronized dance, their breaths mingling in a sweet harmony. Stella's mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions, but she couldn't deny the electric current that coursed through her entire being.
As the kiss deepened, Apollo's grip on Stella grew firmer, his strong hands finding their way to the small of her back, gently but possessively holding her against him. She felt the warmth of his touch through the fabric of her dress, sending shivers down her spine. Her body responded instinctively to his touch, molding against his as she surrendered to the passion that consumed them both. The kiss became more ardent, their lips and tongues exploring each other with an undeniable hunger. The world outside seemed to fade away as they lost themselves in the moment.
Stella found herself surrendering to the overwhelming feelings, her reluctance melting away as Apollo's kiss deepened. Their mouths moved together with a renewed fervor, their bodies drawing closer, their hands caressing one another with a mixture of desire and tenderness.
With each kiss, Stella felt herself sinking deeper into the whirlwind of emotions she had resisted for so long. She lost herself in the sensation, her protests fading into the background as she returned his kisses with equal passion.
Apollo's lips left hers, trailing a path of scorching kisses along her jawline and down the side of her neck. Stella's hand, still tangled in his hair, held his head gently as he explored the sensitive skin of her neck. Her breaths came in short gasps as she felt the heat of his kisses against her skin. Her heart pounded wildly in her chest, mirroring their passionate encounter.
As he continued to kiss her neck, Stella's fingers tightened slightly in his hair, a small gasp escaping her lips in response to the intense sensation.
Apollo pulled back, their faces mere centimeters apart. Both of them were breathing heavily, their lips red and slightly swollen from the intense kiss they had just shared. Stella blushed furiously, the color spreading across her cheeks as she struggled to regain her composure.
Apollo's eyes locked onto hers, taking in the beautiful sight before him, and he couldn't help but smirk at the effect he had on her.
Apollo's cocky smirk widened as he pulled Stella even closer, his grip on her chin firm yet tender. He took a moment to gaze at her, appreciating the effect he had on her. With a hint of arrogance, he repeated, "As I said, I make you feel things you didn't know you were capable of." Without giving her a chance to respond, he claimed her lips in a searing kiss once more. He found himself powerless to resist the magnetic pull between them, his desire for her overriding any logical thought.
Caught in a whirlwind of passion, Stella Cruze found herself returning the kiss with a ferocity she had never known before. Her arms circled around Apollo's shoulders, pulling him even closer as she kissed him with a deep hunger. Their bodies pressed together, the boundaries between them beginning to dissolve as their desires consumed them both.
Apollo's grip on her backside tightened as he forcibly pulled away from the kiss, his voice dripping with hunger. "I can't resist," he whispered fervently before moving to her neck. The sudden shift in his behavior sparked a wave of desire within Stella, evoking a soft moan from her lips. Her body arched against his touch, the sensation and tension building between them almost unbearable.
Apollo slowly pulled back, his gaze tracing over Stella's flushed face and swollen lips. He noticed the way she looked at him, and he inwardly cursed himself for losing control.
"I'm sorry, Miss Cruze," he said, his voice rough and filled with genuine remorse. The sight of her in this state, so beautifully disheveled, sent a rush of heat coursing through him. Stella seemed to struggle for words, her face beet red with a mixture of embarrassment and intense desire.
Her heart pounding in her chest, Stella struggled to find her voice, fumbling over her words like a stuttering mess. Just as she managed to speak, Apollo abruptly cut her off, saying, "I'll leave."
Without a backward glance, he walked away, leaving her still trying to find her bearings after the electric encounter they had just shared. She stood there, her mind a chaotic blend of confusion and yearning.
