were under a spell.
Ethan edged closer, meaning to test her response. He soon found that Josephine wasn’t moving away; he felt as if she was

Ethan swallowed seductively, then pressed his thin lips against Josephine’s. It was so soft that he felt like his entire body had
gotten an electric shock. Greed filled him in that instant, and he desired even more.

However, strangely enough, she didn’t mind Ethan that much, and she even thought he smelled good.
Ethan’s hand snaked up behind her head and held it gently. With a slight force, he pushed her against him so that the kiss was no
longer just a graze. The man was exploring according to his own wishes.
“Mm Josephine let out a small moan as she ignored the danger signals in her brain. She realized that she liked the kiss. It was
refreshing and something she had never experienced before, so it implored her to explore even further.

slightly. Ethan curved his thin lips subtly, his eyes colored with unfulfilled desire. “Ahem! Josephine held her fist to her mouth. and
coughed on purpose to relieve the awkwardness. “Um... we should head back.”
“Don’t you want to stay a while longer?” Ethan had no intention of going back just like that. “I... | have to go back and pack my
things. I'll be going back to the city for work tomorrow morning.” Josephine found a random excuse.
Ethan glanced at the time. “It’s only 8.30PM. The night is still young.” Josephine was speechless. Couldn't this man see that she

However, Josephine was determined to go back. “Why don’t you sendback, then go back out to sea if you'd like?” Ethan was

Josephine bit her red lips. Just then, the inertial from the boat turning around suddenly sent Josephine crashing against the man.
“Ah!” Josephine shrieked, then instinctively reached out to grab the man’s shoulders. Due to the force, Ethan's body tilted, but he
managed to regain balance as he pulled Josephine into his embrace. In that instant, the two fell into a suggestive pose on the
