Chapter 70 - Ch. 70 You're A Good Kisser

Kaylee didn't know when her soul returned to her body, but she instantly lowered her head as she regained consciousness.

She knew everyone's gazes weren't the same as those in her nightmare, but still… she broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that many pairs of eyes were looking at him with probing gaze.

Kaylee shifted her gaze lower to her hand, which was now being held tightly by Declan. Through the man's grasp, Kaylee felt as if a voice was whispering into her mind and said she would be fine.

'Be brave and look what lies in front of you.' that was what the voice said.

Someone's voice that felt familiar, but Kaylee couldn't remember whose voice that was.

The slight movement of Declan's thumb, which gently stroked the back of her hand, could erase all her anxiety. Kaylee slowly raised her head and looked at each person who congratulated her.

Mr. and Mrs. Zouch witnessed the change in expression of their daughter and breathed a sigh of relief to see that their daughter had not fainted on the spot.

"She did it. I told you she would face the crowd quite well," said Britney proudly.

"She was born to be a star in this world, but she lost her memories. Are you sure this is the best way to make her back?"

"I don't know. But I want to give the best for her."

"By marrying her off to the Black family?"

Mrs. Zouch didn't answer him and watched his daughter from a distance with a happy smile.

It doesn't matter whether Kaylee's memory will come back or not. As long as laughter continues to adorn her daughter, Britney will do anything for her daughter.

And yet, deep down in her heart, she prayed hard that one day her only daughter could remember.

After exchanging pleasantries and received congratulations from the guests, Declan took Kaylee back out and into the adjoining reading room in his room.

As soon as Kaylee did not see anyone in the room, her shaking legs become limp. She would fall if there were no strong hand to support her balance.

"Are you alright?"

"I... I think so." Kaylee answered in a whisper-like voice. Her mind still drifted to the unexpected announcement made by Mister Old Black.

She also realized that her parents were silent not to protest this announcement which means they also know about it. Or maybe her mother was the mastermind behind this unexpected announcement.

She was one hundred percent sure that her mother was an accomplice to Declan's mother, considering both of them were eager to tie the knot between them.

Instantly Kaylee glanced at Declan with an accusing look which made the man grimace.

"Did you know about this?"

"Believe me. If I had found out, I wouldn't have brought you back there."

"Why? Don't you want to be engaged to…" Kaylee quickly sealed her mouth as soon as she realized her mistake.

Declan smirked as he pulled Kaylee closer to him, making the girl hold her breath because of their sudden closeness.

"I not only want to be engaged to you, but I want to make you my wife. I want to announce to the world that Kaylee Roesalie Zouch is mine. You don't know how much I hold myself back from scolding men who are ogling your unearthly beauty."

"Wh... What?" Kaylee slightly pushed him away to break free, yet the man didn't move an inch. It was as if she tried to move a mountain which was an impossible mission.

Very weird. How could this person frighten her and make her want to run away when another time, this person managed to make her feel comfortable and protected?

"Declan... I..."

"Yes?"

"I… I'm thirsty! Can you… mph!" her eyes widened when she felt something soft and spongy jelly-like pressed her lips.

She blinked her eyes once, twice, and many times before she realized Declan kissed her!! And that too... on her lips!!

Lucky for her, Declan did nothing aside pressed his lips above hers before pulling himself. Otherwise, she might pass out right away.

"What a coincidence. I'm thirsty too, but I craved something else at this moment."

Kaylee didn't know what else she had to think of to get this guy to give her some space. Her heart couldn't stop pounding as if a storm suddenly broke into her heart.

A pair of eagle-like black eyes seemed to hypnotize her, making her unable to rebel. On the contrary, Kaylee felt like sinking into those beautiful sharp black diamond eyes, and she was too embarrassed to admit it.

"I… I…"

Declan showed his trademark devilish smirk when he realized his lover… his fiancé, was thinking of a way to make him let go of his arms.

"I... I'm..."

"Yes, sweetheart?"

"I… I'm hungry. So… can you… mmph!" Once again, Declan landed his lips above hers, making Kaylee unable to continue her request.

It's just that… Declan's kiss this time was different from before. The man took a tiny suck and… chewed her lower lip made Kaylee feel like she saw a firefly above her head.

"Me too," whispered Declan over Kaylee's lips made the girl's knees tremble violently, and she couldn't stand up anymore.

"You... You... Didn't you say that we... should take it slow?"

"We already engaged. What do you think?"

Kaylee's eyes glistened to hear this cunning man's response.

What does she think? Of course, it's way too quick for her and dangerous for her poor heart.

"Please, what should I do... to make you ..."

"You don't need to do anything. I already fall in love with you." Declan could barely contain his laugh when he saw the frustrated and desperate expression of his innocent lover.

Declan loosened his hug a little so that his hand could reach the girl's leg, only to carry her made Kaylee let out a startled cry.

"Wh... What are you doing?" Kaylee panicked, and her head gets even dizzier. Despite being afraid of what this man might do to her, her hands curled around Declan's neck reflexively.

"Relax. I won't do anything you don't like." was the promise, but Kaylee couldn't believe his words.

She knew this man had a thousand ways to make her fall in his laid trap and turned the situation to his liking. If she was not careful enough, she was afraid the eagle would devour the bunny at the end of the day.

Declan sat Kaylee down on the comfortable couch with great care before he too sat down to join her.

He crossed his leg over the other to position himself facing Kaylee, who was sitting next to him. One hand was raised to lean back against the reclining chair and placed his temple on his knuckle to adore his fiancé's blushing look.

"Why... are you looking at me like that?"

Declan grabbed Kaylee's cheek with his free hand and stroked it gently down to feel the curve of her sweet lips. His movements made Kaylee's heart pound again, but there was no resistance from her.

"Kaylee, when are you going to admit it?"

"Wh... what do I have to admit?"

"You've fallen in love with me."

Her lips parted slightly in surprise to hear the man's shameless brazen words.

"I… I'm not in love with you… I…" Kaylee swallowed hard when suddenly Declan's face had approached her.

"I can feel it when I kiss you."

"No. That…" Kaylee was still trying to deny it, but the words she wanted to say were swallowed again as Declan continued his sentence.

"I'll show you."

The man proved it by kissing her once more and this time more passionately and demanding than before.

Kaylee couldn't find her resistance and only accepted the man's fierce passion through those soft cold lips.

Declan snaked his hand behind her waist to lift her body and bring it on his lap. Kaylee shrieked out and accidentally opened her mouth, giving Declan access to slip his tongue to taste her sweet honey cave.

Their tongues intertwined into a hide and seek game made Declan even more excited to chase her, while Kaylee felt that her head was filled with something she had never felt before.

She felt that fireflies were filling her brain, making her unable to process what was going on while something strange was gathering in her lower abdomen every time Declan's tongue met her shy one.

Not long after, Kaylee's hands moved by themselves and grasped Declan's brown hair while welcoming his fondling with the same passion.

This made Declan startled, but a second later, he grinned while crushing his lover's delicious strawberry lips.

Both of them were gasping for breath when their making-out session ended.

Surprisingly, Declan saw something different from his fiancé's eyes. Those eyes were not as innocent as he recognized them but… excited and playful naughtiness?

"You're a good kisser." was the seductive words from the vixen while licking her lower lips in an alluring way.

Declan frowned at this remark. Where has he heard of it?

In the next second, Kaylee closed her eyes and fell unconscious, making Declan return to the real world from his own mind.

'What was that?'
