...So, Aaron went to Northspire to offer blessings for Cynthia Lynwood? "What are you thinking about?" Aaron's voice broke Serena's reverie. She looked up at the man in front of her, suddenly feeling like a fool.

It was meant for Serena. However, Victor had mentioned that while the charms from Harmony Temple were indeed effective, they often worked in unexpected ways. For instance, if you wished for wealth, you might end up in a car accident and receive a hefty compensation.

Serena's bedroom door was closed, much like her heart at that moment.
After a brief hesitation, Aaron decided to head upstairs. The door wasn't locked, and he easily pushed it open to find Serena sitting at the edge of the bed, engrossed in her tablet.

Serena turned, greeted by the sight of a living, breathing Adonis. Her eye Her eyes darted, unsure of where to rest, as the scent of his fresh, masculine presence grew stronger.
In the next moment, Aaron stepped closer, his warm breath brushingn Serena's cheek. I'm done. Do you want to take a shower?" Serena backed up, nearly pressing herself against the floor-to-ceiling window. "Yeah."
He studied her for a moment before straightening up. Sereng seized the opportunity grabbed her clothes, and dashed into the bathroom. With the door shut, her wildly beating heart finally calmed down.
Outside, watching Serena's hasty retreat, Aaron allowed himself a small, knowing smile.
