Chapter 195 Never Believed in Fate

Her expression was proud yet radiant. It was rare for her to be this playful. Darren smiled and played along with her. He lowered his head, kissing the back of her hand sincerely.

"It is my honor, Your Majesty. However …" He suddenly rose and leaned into her. His tall and imposing figure loomed over her, casting a strong presence.

His strong arms were propped on the chair she was sitting in, as if he was locking her into his embrace.

Darren, who was always so dignified and gentle before her, was trying to show his true colors.

"Just a kiss on the hand isn't enough."

His gaze was fixated on her red lips. He was no longer hiding his strong desire for intimacy. Huskily, he slurred, "My Queen, it's time for me to claim my reward."

His attractive face leaned closer as the sexual tension between them grew more intense.

Although he appeared assertive, his moves were deliberate, leaving her ample time to consider. It seemed that if she were to stop him, he would cease his actions.
