She became exhausted from waiting when Audrey didn't return in two hours.
"Who knows maybe the mean girl has changed her mind," She muttered disappointedly as she leaned her back against the couch.
"Ouch!" She cried out the instant her back violently hit the couch.
"What's it?" He asked as he jumped and squatted in front of her.
"It hurts," She whimpered while trying to nurse her irritated back.
Amos resisted the urge to laugh when he saw her pouty lips.
[Isn't she the one who said she was immune to pains so why is she whimpering now?]
He caressed her hands as he tried not to laugh.
"Where does it hurt?" He quizzed. Amos stood up and knelt on the grey couch.
"Is it here?" He asked as he blew hot air on the wound on her right shoulder.
"Not there," She said while shaking her head.
He left there and blew hot air on the injury in the middle of her back but Joanna still insisted he got the wrong one.
He kept on doing this and without realising it he blew hot air on all her back injuries.
"Joan, did I do something wrong? Is that why you are punishing me this way?" He asked as he sat back on the couch.
Joanna shifted to the extreme end of the couch so that she was looking at his face.
"Why did you say that? And how could I possibly punish you?" She asked. Joanna arched her eyebrows as she wondered what Amos' words implied.
"Because I have blown hot air on all the wounds on your back but you kept saying I got the wrong one," He complained.
"Really?" She asked and looked away from his face.
"Are you sure you didn't miss an important spot?" She asked with her eyes staring into space.
"I didn't," he asserted. He looked at her expecting to see her turn around but she didn't.
He became a bit worried when she wouldn't look at him.
He shifted closer, held her hand and slowly turned her around.
"Does it hurt that much?" He questioned as he looked at the lady who was biting down her lower lips.
Joanna continued biting her lower lips without saying anything or making any reactions.
[He is so gentle towards me. The atmosphere looks very conducive for a love confession. Maybe this is the perfect opportunity I have been waiting for - Should I just tell him that I am in love with him?]
Joanna looked into his eyes searchingly while maintaining her silence.
Amos became even more worried when she still refused to talk but kept biting down her lower lips.
[He looks so in love with me. Even though his feelings have changed a bit I don't think he would reject my love confession because of my condition]
She clasped her fist as she looked him in the eye.
"Joan, are you alright?" He asked and raised his hand to touch her face.
"I-I…," the nervous Joanna paused halfway.
In her head, she had practised countless times how to make her confession. Now that it has reached the time for her to say the words out she realised that it wasn't as easy as she thought.
"What are you trying to tell me, say it?" Amos urged her on. There was so much gentleness in his gaze as he waited for her to say what was on her mind.
"I-I…," Joanna bit down her lower lips. She clutched the hem of the flared dress she wore.
[Why can't I bring myself to say it?]
Her helplessness showed on her face and eyes as she kept her gaze glued on his.
Her expressions that kept fluctuating made Amos wonder what she found so hard to tell him.
"Joan, what's the problem? Please say something and stop scaring me, hmmm?" He begged as he grabbed her shoulders with both hands.
"Did he do anything else to you apart from trying to force himself on you?" Amos made a wild guess since she won't talk to him.
"If he did that, tell me and I will make sure he doesn't die with all parts of his body complete," Amos said. He smiled just to assure her that he was on her side.
[Since I can't say the words, how about I kiss him instead? I heard actions speak louder than words so I am sure he will know how I feel for him even though I don't say it]
Joanna came up with a perfect solution for her problem even in her nervous state.
"I won't judge you for anything…," He choked on his words when she reached out her hand, held his neck and pulled him in for a kiss.
Time seemed to have stopped when her lips met his, but the flutter intensified. Joanna's heart battered in her chest as she nibbled his lips trying to tear them apart.
As she kissed him all her attention was on how soft his lips felt. The rush of emotions raided her senses making her head feel blank.
His body subconsciously moved against his will. His lips moved in response to her intense kiss.
His fingers sank into her jade-like skin with a mind of their own. As he made her feel loved and precious with every touch, her stomach fluttered as this was her first time.
Her entire body tingled as the kiss heightened.
While kissing he subconsciously made her lean back.
A groan left her mouth when he bit her lower lips.
"Why did you bite…," His powerful arms circled her waist before she could lay down her complaints.
He captured her lips once again. His fiery lips explored every inch of her mouth.
As they were indulging themselves with the little intimacy that was progressing very fast, Audrey was seen entering the elevator on the ground floor.
The elevator closed shortly.
As she eagerly waited for the elevator to reach her destination Audrey peeked at the small size boxes in her hands.

HAPPY NEW MONTH!!! HAPPY NOVEMBER
First of all, I want to thank all of you for all you did last month. A big shout-out to all the readers who tried their best to make sure that we accomplished last month's goals although we ended up not being able to attain the goals.
I know reaching the goals never worked out and this is what I don't know the cause but I am still thankful to each one of you for at least attempting.
As you all know new month like this always calls for new goals so these are our goals for this month.
GOAL 1: Reach a certain number of privileged buyers = 6 chapters mass release. So instead of the usual 1k privileged chapters unlock I have twisted the goal a bit. As long as we reach a certain number of privileged buyers this November 2022, I will give 6 chapters mass release the following month.
GOAL 2: 100 GOLDEN TICKETS = 2 Chapters Mass release. For every 100 GOLDEN TICKETS we get this month I will give 2 chapters mass release i.e if we get 200 GOLDEN TICKETS this month I will give 4 chapters mass release. And these 4 chapters are only for the GOLDEN TICKETS goal.
So what are you waiting for instead of casting all your GOLDEN TICKETS to this book?
Let's Try Our Best To Accomplish This Month's Goals. I Am Challenging Myself By Deliberately Giving Giving So Many Chapters For Each Goal So Also Challenge Your And Let's See Which Of Us Will Win.
