Roseline's POV

Thankfully, the dress I found happened to be a knee-length midi dress, which was a relief.

When I came out, he was nowhere to be found. Has he gone somewhere?

Why do I care about his whereabouts? Perhaps there was a lingering sense of curiosity or concern, despite my earlier frustrations.

Shrugging off those thoughts, I decided to sit down on the bed. To my surprise, the mattress felt incredibly soft and comfortable. The temptation to lie down and indulge in a deep sleep washed over me, but I hesitated.

It felt like a heavy weight on my chest, which made it hard for me to even breathe. Everything was fine just a few minutes ago. I couldn't understand what took over him all of a sudden. His eyes were fixated on my face as he stepped forward, while my eyes were moving all over his body, taking in every movement.

    Roseline's POV And in that fleeting moment, time stood still as his lips crashed into mine. My body froze, overwhelmed by the unexpected sensation. It was my first kiss, and I never imagined it would be like this.

I thought that he loved someone else so he was not going to get intimate with me. But the way his heart was beating beneath my palm told a different story. It seems like he wanted more than just a kiss and he isn't going to stop without claiming everything he wants. He stayed like that for a minute, as if the world stopped for him as well. He wasn't breathing; he wasn't moving, just like me; the only sound we could hear was our thumping hearts that were beating in the same rhythm.

He was blinking up at me innocently with a pout on his lips. I couldn't help but chuckle at his irresistible charm.

So, I politely declined."Don't we have other designs?" he inquired, turning to the boutique attendant."Sir, if you're not satisfied with our current selection, you can choose from a virtual catalog, and we'll tailor it to your preferences," she suggested."That's a great idea!"
