Chapter 224: Moonlit Reflections–2
The last time we had taken a group photo seemed to be when we were traveling in Lin’an Ancient Town. At
that time, we were still a couple in love, and our posture had been intimate when taking pictures.
Unlike now. We hadn’t made up yet, and Connor hadn’t made any overly intimate gestures.
When taking the picture, he only looked sideways at me, with a gentle and affectionate look in his eyes. I was
looking at the camera, but he was looking at me.
I could feel the weight of his gaze, warm and tender.
After taking the photo, Connor made a subtle gesture to Awen. Understanding his hint, she took the initiative
to move away from us, giving us privacy.
Connor and I began strolling side by side through this picturesque scenery. Occasionally, there was the
distant sound of cattle and sheep, and birds flew across the sky.
The breeze brought the fragrance of flowers, and everything was so beautiful and peaceful.
As we walked, the distance between us became closer unconsciously. A subtle and sweet atmosphere filled
the air around us.
The mate bond hummed softly, responding to our proximity and the romantic setting.
Suddenly, I stumbled over a small stone hidden in the grass and staggered forward. Connor’s reflexes were
lightning–fast as he reached out and pulled me back.
I was pulled directly into his strong arms. The unique masculine aura and his cold woody fragrance instantly
surrounded me.
We were very close now. Connor leaned over and lowered his head, his nose almost touching mine, and our
breaths intertwined.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Our eyes met and held.
My heart began beating faster – thump thump – and the surrounding sounds seemed to disappear. The world
was filled only with the sound of my heartbeat, growing faster and faster.
Affected by the intimate atmosphere, Connor’s eyes became deeper and more intense. He leaned forward
slowly, his movements deliberate and careful.
Both our breaths gradually became rapid. I stared at his increasingly close features – his strong eyebrows, his ice–blue eyes, his perfectly sculpted face.
I didn’t move away. Instead, I closed my eyes, giving him the signal he was waiting for.
I agreed to let him kiss me.
Connor’s heart skipped a beat, and I could sense his nervousness through our bond. He held his breath as his
thin lips gently touched mine.
The touch was like touching the softest cloud in the world. Everything happened naturally, as if we had never been apart.
When we had broken up before, it was when we loved each other the most. During that painful time, both of

us had suffered tremendously.
But we had always loved each other. Even though so many things had happened, we had never changed our
minds.
Connor hadn’t, and I hadn’t either. I had just buried that love deep in my heart due to the various pressures of
reality.
But no matter how much time had passed, my love for Connor had not diminished in the slightest. I longed
for his closeness.
I couldn’t reject his touch, his warmth, his love.
