Chapter 269 Hendrix was mindful of Noelles sunburned skin , and with the moments tension easing slightly , he was about to let her go when Noelle suddenly grabbed his arm .
Hendrix , she whispered softly into his ear .
The blunt and passionate words made Hendrix stiffen , his eyes snapping to hers with an almost visceral reaction .
Noelle smiled at him .
Between her fingers was the tie she had just removed from his neck , the silky fabric sliding smoothly through her fingertips .
Leaning in again , she gently licked his lips .
The last shred of rationality in Hendrixs mind snapped in an instant .
Without hesitation , he grabbed the back of Noelles head and kissed her fiercely .
At that moment , they clung to each other desperately , as if they were two people struggling to breathe , finding solace only in each other .
Their embrace was intense , as though they had finally found the one they couldnt live without and were terrified of losing them again .
They held on tightly to each other , unwilling to be the first to let go .
By the time it was over , Noelle had almost completely lost ber voice .
Her skin and forehead were damp with sweat , and the ointment she had applied earlier was now completely wasted .
When Hendrix returned with a glass of water , she drank it all in one go before finally catching her breath .
Should I carry you to the bathroom to wash up ? Hendrixs voice , softened by satisfaction , was especially gentle .
Ill reapply the ointment after .

But Hendrix didnt move right away .
Instead , he raised an eyebrow and looked at her .
Noelle found it odd .
Shouldnt you call me something first ? he asked with a low chuckle .
It was then that Noelle remembered the ridiculous things shed said earlier in the heat of the moment .
Clearly , Hendrix had enjoyed every word .
Outwardly , he always presented a calm and composed demeanor , but once his clothes were all stripped off , he was actually more debauched than anyone else .
Hendrix looked at Noelle , fully expecting to have to banter with her for a while , but in the next moment , she smiled at him and softly called out , Baby .
The light , casual word made Hendrixs back straighten immediately , and a distinct tingling sensation traveled up his spine .
Hendrix knew it wasnt the time for a second round , so he simply smiled , clearly pleased , and lifted Noelle off the bed .
After helping her wash up , he reapplied the ointment to her sunburned skin .
The food he had brought back earlier had completely cooled by now .
Hendrix placed the containers in the microwave , reheating them one by one .
Meanwhile , Noelle sat on the living room rug , quietly eating the cake .
She hadnt had cake in a long time , and now , she was so satisfied that her eyes closed in delight .
Hendrix brought the reheated food over and took the cake from her hands in the process .
You have to eat dinner first .
7/2 Chapter 21 Noelle didnt argue and obedienti , ted eating .
+25 BONUS During the time they had been living together , Hendrix had come to understand her taste quite well .
Nearly everything on the table now was something she liked .
Noelles appetite was decent , and as Hendrix sat there peeling shrimp for her with gloved hands , she suddenly said , You should go and pack up your things later ? Her voice was so calm that Hendrix didnt immediately catch her meaning .
What things ? Noelle seemed to find his question amusing .
Your clothes and whatever else you brought .
Just take everything back with you .
Hendrix froze , and the expression on his face vanished entirely .
After a few seconds , he asked in a tense voice , What do you mean by that ?
