Their lips met, tongues entwined. Restless legs tangled together. Da-in’s head swam, lost in the warmth of his breath and the firmness of his embrace. It was a kiss hotter than any lovemaking.fd55ec5576fe5e36

Past and d65c4d73b1 present blurred. The intensity of the a50a0293a0 kiss was frightening, as 0f5658bcc4 if their intertwined lips bb65db669e were merging their very da542ab32c souls. Da-in felt a surge 34f0d48057 of fear, a premonition 4f179cd24e of dependence and longing.1e7cff1c3cc3088b

The kiss continued, 3b100d7c3d even as they b719c67d53 exchanged barbed words. Seojun ripped 3eb41633a7 off his e9d980858a t-shirt and 8819efeda3 tossed it 0711cf7a9b onto the 72594d052f floor. His hands, gripping her 8024059663 soft skin, were urgent.8d29ac9979ccee87

He held a3a0ed8a45 her tightly, c7bd77c2cf teasing her b18348a840 with his 8bf54c21f0 fingertips, caressing 43ad52ebb3 her back, 77395733af and tracing e4086622f4 her flat 0f9740ceb3 stomach.
