Neil stepped over slowly and his gaze trained on that woman. 

"Sleep." Edith scooted over to a side and patted the bed. "Come here. Darling, accompany me to sleep."

A chuckle escaped him, knowing that this woman literally meant sleeping and not anything else. He pinched at her cheek to vent his frustration, but suddenly, Edith grabbed his wrist and with a tug, Neil fell on top of her.

The two stared at each other silently in that position and their eyes could only see each other.

Neil felt her breaths caressing his face and his body began to heat up. His gaze started to trail down to her nose, then to her lips…

"Darling?"

"Hmm?" His gaze went back to hers. At this time, Edith was staring back at him with her eyes wide.

"Why are you so good looking?"

Edith continued to stare at him and watched as his lips slowly curved into a smile. 

Seeing the expression that she liked so much, Edith tugged at the front of his shirt, pulling Neil closer to her before she kissed his lips. Her lips brushed against his gently. She wanted to savor the way he tasted and could not get enough of it. His lips were so sweet and she was addicted to them.

His throat rolled as Edith started to lick at his lips, begging for an entrance. Neil was slowly losing his mind and soon, his lips parted and he took the lead to kiss her. 

Edith let out a soft hum as he nibbled at her lips and continued to kiss her senselessly.

Her hands that were crumpling at his shirt slowly loosened. Her hands trailed down to feel the muscle under his shirt.

Suddenly, Neil let out a gasp as he felt her hands slipped into his shirt and touching his skin.

Neil pulled away and looked at the woman under him. "Baby, are you trying to seduce me?"

The woman smiled sweetly at him and her hands continued to roam around his body.

"Edith Qian," he called her name through his gritted teeth. If she did not stop now, Neil thought that he might no longer hold back. He removed the paws from his body.

Neil took a deep breath and kissed her cheek. Then, he pulled her body closer and patted her hair softly. "I won't do anything to you when you're not sober. I will just hold you to sleep, alright?"

Silence filled in the room. Neil buried his nose on her neck and held the person in his arms tightly as he tried to calm down his raging urge. 

"I can't breathe." Her voice sounded aggrieved.

Neil heaved a sigh as he loosened his embrace. 

However, as soon as there was space for her to move around, her naughty hands started to roam around aimlessly on his body again.

Neil quickly grabbed those misbehaved paws and locked them both above her head. He lowered his head to look at her and pecked at her lips. "Don't do this. Let's just sleep alright?" He pleaded.

"Let me go." Edith struggled and with a few moves, she managed to escape from his grip. "Darling, let me touch you."

A laugh escaped him as he felt the hands went back to their original position. "Baby, you are going to kill me if you continue to do this."

The atmosphere in the room soon changed. The night was especially quiet, and inside the room, sounds that could make people blush could be heard.

Neil buried his face on the crook of her neck as he held her body tighter. His lips parted and his throat rolled as his chest heaved up and down. Neil found that it was harder to control his breathing as seconds ticked.

He lifted his head to look at Edith and frowned upon seeing the serious look on her face. A chuckle escaped him before he leaned to kiss her lips deeply.

Suddenly, Neil closed his eyes. His breathing hitched and a low grunt escaped him. Neil rested his head on her shoulder as he steadied his breathing. Once he had calm down, Neil bent to peck at her lips before he pulled out some tissue papers to wipe her hands.

Once everything was cleaned up and organized, Neil pulled Edith close to him and hugged her to sleep.

…

The first thing Edith noticed upon waking up was her throbbing headache. After a while, she found that her hands were both sore and tired. Later, she started to feel that her body was surrounded by a very comfortable warmth.

Edith shifted her body and turned around. 

Her eyes went wide when she saw Neil's handsome face. His eyes were closed and his breathing steadied as he was in a deep sleep.

Her mouth parted as she sucked in a deep breath. Her hands moved to check at her clothing and a sigh of relief escaped her knowing that nothing had happened between them last night.

Edith calmed down immediately and started to observe her situation first. A deep frown appear on her face when she noticed that she was in her bedroom. But… why was this person beside her.

No matter how she thought about it, Edith could not figure out what happened last night.

She remembered going for dinner with her grandfather and the others. Then, Neil appeared and joined them for a meal. She recalled drinking a few cups of wine with her grandfather, and later, Lily showed up and Neil took her home.

But, wait. Why did Lily come over to the restaurant?

Was she dreaming or seeing things?

Edith rapped her knuckle on her head as if it was going to help her with her memory. After a while, her movement stopped and Edith stared at her hands with a puzzled look on her face.

What on earth happened to her hands? Why does it felt as if they did not belong to her?

Her gaze went back to look at Neil's sleeping face. 

They had slept together but Neil had not done anything to her while she was under the influence of alcohol.

"Stop staring at me like that or I might not be able to control myself."

His eyes snapped open as he spoke. 

The two of them continued to look at each other for a long time before Neil leaned in to kiss her forehead. "Good morning."

"Good morning," Edith whispered. She pulled at the quilt cover and hid half of her face under it. "Neil... why are you in my bedroom? Last night. What happened last night?"

A chuckle escaped him. Because he had just woken up, his voice sounded especially deep. He tilted his head sideways and spoke, "Last night, you would not let me leave.. Edith Qian, you pulled me here to accompany you to sleep. Did you forget everything?"
