BXBX NOVEL Chapter 56 - 56: Competition
By the time they reached the location, Enna Clark regretted it immensely.
Turned out, the crowd that had gathered was not clamoring for a good deal, but instead was due to a local kissing contest that was being held. Everyone had come to enjoy the spectacle.
Looking at the pairs of men and women passionately kissing in the square, Enna felt a faint heat in her ears. Darn it! Why did she impulsively insist on dragging Baron Lawrence over here, making her seem overly thirsty.
“Let’s… let’s go.”
Baron Lawrence held her hand, his hawk eyes watching the couples in the square, unmoving.
Enna felt completely embarrassed, bit her lip and yanked him again, “Baron Lawrence, let’s go back. I don’t want to roam anymore.”
“Didn’t you want to watch this earlier?” The composed man finally turned to look at her, but his fervent gaze was filled with an intense sense of possessiveness!
It was like a starved beast, just waiting to devour her whole!
Enna’s throat went dry, and she avoided his gaze, “I did not. I thought…”
“Thought what?” He was like a hunter ready for the hunt, not caring how his prey struggled.
“I thought they were selling things here, so I asked you to come.” Enna explained.
“Really?” Baron Lawrence’s thin lips curved as he grasped her jaw and lifted her gaze to meet his. His hawk-like eyes were locked on her, slowly speaking, “I was under the impression that you were inviting me.”
What she had invited him to, was left unsaid!
With her cheeks flushed, Enna was about to explain when the man holding her chin assertively spoke, “Since you’ve invited me already, I will accompany you in the contest.”
The next second, the man’s handsome face leaned in, seizing her lips!
Enna’s eyes widened in surprise!
There were shouts and cheers around them, accompanied by women’s envious whispers.
“Wow, look at that couple! The guy is so handsome!”
“Where?”
“Over there. So handsome! Could he be a star? Even stars are not as handsome as him!”
“He is indeed really handsome. That girl is so lucky. If I were kissing such a handsome man, I would definitely faint.”
Her lips went numb from being sucked, and she felt as if she was running out of breath. Enna held onto his neck to steady herself.
Further whispers surrounded them, and more and more eyes were focused on them.
Her face felt unbearably hot, the discomfort only amplified by a sensation in her body. Every bit of sensory input felt amplified, her lips most of all — they felt incredibly tingly.
She couldn’t go on like this!
Enna put her hands on his chest, struggling to push him off, “Mm, Bar…Baron Lawrence…l don’t want to…
Each word she uttered caused her lips to brush against his, as if she were deliberately speaking while holding him close.
Her ears felt hot, and right after she finished speaking, she heard his husky voice, ‘You still have the strength to talk, seems like I haven’t tried hard enough.”
“Mm!” Her teeth were pried open and his dominance was as if he wanted to swallow her whole.
Her lips weren’t just numb now – the constant sucking caused a slight sting.
However, the worst was the reaction of her body, wave after wave of response. She could only use the last bit of her strength to clutch his neck, to stop herself from collapsing due to her weak legs.
Time slowly passed.
Every second felt infinitely long.
The surrounding noise gradually decreased until she couldn’t hear anything at
all.
In the entire square, all Enna could see was the man close at hand. His tightly closed hawk-eyes, his unbelievable beautiful lashes…
She didn’t know how long it had been, it was long enough that she was about to give up.
Finally, the host’s excited voice sounded in her ears, “Congratulations, you have won this contest! The prize is…”
