The kiss was brief but powerful, intense enough to leave her breathless. Her heart raced, yet it ended before she could even gather her thoughts. She stood there, stunned, as the lingering warmth of the kiss left her pulse racing and her mind struggling to catch up with the emotions it stirred within her.
Their eyes met, but without a single word coming from their lips, it seemed like both of them could read each other's minds. Without wasting another second, Leon once again leaned closer, cupping Emma's cheek before he caught her lips with his.
As the kiss deepened, Leon's hand moved from her cheek to her waist. He tightened his embrace and pulled her up before walking towards the door. The library, which was quiet, became a silent witness as their breaths grew loud and entangled with each other.
