Without waiting for another word, Diana leaned in, her lips capturing Lucas's in a bold kiss. The initial contact was soft, almost hesitant, but quickly deepened as the tension that had been simmering between them erupted into action. Lucas responded in kind, his hand sliding up to cup the back of her neck, pulling her closer as their kiss grew more fervent.
Maya, seated a few feet away, felt her breath hitch as she watched the scene unfold. Her face flushed, her heart pounding uncontrollably. She bit her lip, unable to tear her eyes away. There was something intoxicating about the raw passion between Lucas and Diana, something that stirred a deep, primal reaction within her.
