Chapter 537 - One Day

After their passionate making out, Lily asked Lance who is still on top of her. "I thought you'll bring lunch?"

"Yeah. I brought myself." He said, his lips brushing hers.

Lily laughed. "Seriously!"

"I did." He said with a mischievous smile, loving the way Lily is laughing underneath him.

"Aren't you hungry?" She asked but her heart is becoming hard to control because Lance is looking at her with lust.

"I was... now I'm full."

Lily rolled her eyes. What a pervert! "Come on! Let's eat."

Lance felt defeated. He buried his face into the crook of her neck. Damn! He wants her. And Lily knows it because she could feel it. She could feel is hardness. She wants him as well but they haven't got to that stage yet. After finding out that Lily hasn't done it before with any other man, Lance was elated and excited as well. The thought of him being her first is something that he is anticipating. And he wanted it to be special. He wants her first time to be special. Of course, he wants it to be with him. He knows she is not ready yet, he could feel that she become tense whenever he tried to go beyond making out. And he doesn't like to force her. If they are going to do it, she must be willing, and it has to be special.

"Lance?" She called out his name.

"Hmm?"

"Are you fine?"

No. He answered internally. "Yes." Then he pulled himself to look at her. He is still hovering on top of her. "Let's eat lunch before I eat you up for dessert."

Lily blushed again. She could not actually count how many times she turns red every time they are together. She grasped the collar of his shirt and pulled him closer for a kiss. "One day." She said on his lips.

Lance nodded his head. "I look forward to that."

"It won't be long. I promise." Lily said with a sweet smile. She means it. In fact, she is ready for it. She's just waiting for a perfect time.

Lance prepared the food he ordered in Lily's dining table. While Lily is taking out plates from the cupboard. "Have you seen the guards outside?" She asked when she realized that Lance is not asking about that. She thought he didn't notice.

"Yeah. I expected that. In fact, if Jacob didn't do it I would be the one doing it." Lance said casually.

"I'm sorry. I know you hate being surrounded by guards but this is for your own safety." Lance continued.

"I know. I just didn't expect that it would reach this extent that everyone in the family needs a guard." She said as she sits on the chair that Lance pulled out for her.

"Tell me honestly. Do you blame J for this?" Lance asked her with a serious expression.

"No. I don't. And that's the truth." Lance could see that Lily is being honest. He admired how honest and open-minded she is. "But... I felt pity for her. She didn't do anything to be in a position that she didn't want to. She deserves a happy and peaceful life."

Lance felt sad for his friend. "You are right. Ever since she turns 10, she started hiding. Others might think that she is living peacefully but she is not. Who would live peacefully knowing that you are hiding from someone but not knowing who you are hiding from? She was not at ease. She is not living a normal life that she seems to be living. She has a family but pretending that they are already dead. She has a friend but she can't see or be with them."

"Well, it was good that she had Diana during those times. How is she by the way? I heard about what happened."

"I think she is doing fine now. She is planning a small surprise birthday party for J." Lance said.

Lily's eyes widened! "What? My sister-in-law's birthday? When is that? Where is going to be the party? Does my brother knows about it?" Lily can't hide her excitement.

"Yeah. A week from now. It will be held in Lodgepole. It's a secret so don't tell anyone, okay? Thou Jacob has his own plan I guess." Lance said amused by Lily's excitement.

"Oh! That's Jacob! He is probably planning something special for my sister." She said and winks at Lance.
