Chapter 43 The Gentle Man

“Where is the medical kit?” “It’s in the drawer under the coffee table.”

Soon, Pierre brought the medicine box from under the coffee table and took Selena’s hand in his. The wound was not long, but it was still quite deep, so Pierre first took the alcohol swab to disinfect it, and then applied the medicinal powder on it. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As he did all this, Selena kept watching his eyes. The first time she saw him, she had felt that this man was an unfeeling and emotionless person. Otherwise, why would his eyes be so cold? They were glacial enough to turn people into ice! But now when she was looking at his eyes that were like two bottomless pools, they had a trace of gentleness within them hidden beneath the layer of mysteriousness. Hence, Selena looked on, mesmerized.

“Done.” Pierre finished bandaging her wound and let go of her hand. His bandaging technique was not as perfect as it usually was. As this was a necessary skill to pick up when he was in the army, he had perfected the skill, but when he was so close to Selena just now, the fragrance of her body kept distracting his thoughts, and his mind kept going back to what happened earlier in the kindergarten.

Besides, he could occasionally see from the corner of his eyes her fluttering long eyelashes that caused his heart to itch with an unbearable urge, so he simply did not have the mental capacity to bandage the wound perfectly.

“T-Thank you.” Selena used her other hand to hold her injured hand, not even daring to raise her eyes to look at Pierre. The atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became a little awkward, as Pierre did not want to go out, and Selena did not know what she was supposed to do next. Hence, they just kept standing around like this.

“I’m fine. I still can cook, and I’ve already prepared everything. U-Um… W-Why don’t you go out and wait? I-I’ll call you when it’s d-done,” Selena stammered. However, Pierre did not hear anything at all.

Immediately after that, Selena turned around to get the vegetables ready for the pot, but when she was washing the vegetables just now, water had splashed on the ground, so she slipped on it and fell. Pierre rushed forward and caught her in his arms, and at that moment, their eyes met.

Blinking a few times with her wide eyes, Selena’s mouth opened in surprise at Pierre’s action. Feeling somewhat muddled in the head, the man suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.

At that moment, he felt he couldn’t control himself; Selena’s lips were so soft and supple that he couldn’t restrain his urges. In fact, when he proposed to her earlier, he had wanted to kiss her deeply, but because there were so many people around, they only shared a light kiss. When his lips touched Selena’s, he had wanted to kiss her deeply, but it was a pity that he couldn’t do that at that time.

However, he really couldn’t stop himself from doing so now.

Previously, he had wanted to leave for a while in order to get his thoughts away from this woman and restore his emotions back to normal. He even wanted to tell Selena everything that was going on about the proposal earlier, including the fact that he did it all just for Juniper’s sake, so he hadn’t taken it seriously. But right now, he couldn’t help but kiss her passionately on the lips.

Meanwhile, Selena did not push him away. She was rather dazed by what just happened, and she simply looked at him dumbly.

In the past, when she was with Finneas, they didn’t kiss at first because she was still rather young, and later, it was because Selena wasn’t brave enough. Besides, she was a girl, and she was quite uncertain about this kind of thing, so she never took the initiative. Finneas did ask to kiss her before,

but Selena had refused him out of embarrassment. After being snubbed by her, he never mentioned it again.

Hence, this was Selena’s first kiss. She did not expect that it would feel so sensual like this as their tongues were entwined together.

As they kissed, their breathing became more and more rapid. Pierre pushed Selena against the door, kissing her lasciviously and igniting the fire of passion in both his and her heart.
