Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3369

Andrew finally understood. He realized that what he had just said really did sound like something a clueless guy would say. Asking her directly whether she liked him was not exactly smooth.

With Shiloh's pride and rebellious streak, there was no way she would admit her true feelings so easily.

"Shiloh, I like you, and I will treat you well from now on," Andrew said as he held her close.

His warm hand slid to her waist. "Will you be my woman? Can we stay together for the rest of our lives?"

Shiloh lowered her head and murmured shyly, "That's more like it."

Andrew looked at her blushing face, and even the tips of her ears had turned red.

After two years apart, she seemed even more gentle and feminine. Maybe after having a child, she had grown softer and more affectionate.

Shiloh had always been stunningly beautiful, and although she carried a cool, distant air, she was obedient in front of Andrew.

They said time apart made love stronger, and they had been separated for two full years.

The memories of that night at Swordhaven Keep, when their bodies had tangled together in passion, suddenly flooded Andrew's mind. Heat rushed through him, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Shiloh had not been prepared and tried to push him away. However, Andrew had already deepened the kiss, wrapping his tongue around hers.

With a low growl, desire surged through him, and he scooped her up, moving toward the bed nearby.

Shiloh let out a soft cry, her heart racing as she instantly understood what might happen next.

Even though she felt her own resistance weakening, she suddenly remembered that downstairs were not only her own people but also members of the Cavendish royal family. And just moments ago, she had heard a woman's voice that sounded very concerned about Andrew.

At the last second, Shiloh forced herself to pull away from his lips and gasped for air.

"Not here. Andrew, let's wait until I finish what I need to do. We can go somewhere else after that, okay?"
