Upon hearing Edwin’s words, Caroline’s heart skipped a beat. She felt a wave of heat rising from her body, causing a light layer of pink to appear on her face.
As a girl who grew up in the military, Caroline had interacted with too many men. There were handsome men, ugly men, strong men, and weak men. In her eyes, these men were all her comrades. They were the targets that she wanted to surpass.
This was why Caroline had never treated them as ‘men’ in a relationship. However, Edwin was different. This man was her fiancé. If nothing unexpected happened, they would face the storms together in the future. They would have to give each other their backs.
She and her trusted comrades could do the same, but they were different from Edwin.
In the military camp, female soldiers were the disadvantageous group. Many female soldiers had been harassed to varying degrees, and some had even been humiliated. Caroline was powerful. Anyone who provoked her would be taught a lesson by her. Hence, those people did not dare to provoke her. However, their words were not very clean.
Thus, throughout all these years, Caroline had heard many dirty words, but she only felt disgusted and annoyed. However, when these words came out of Edwin’s mouth, the ripples in her heart were completely different.
Because Edwin respected her and loved her, he wasn’t like those people who wanted to take advantage of her. Caroline, who had never faced such a situation before, was stumped. She didn’t know how to react.
Looking at her helpless face, Edwin knew that he had been too hasty. He quickly let go of her. “I’m sorry, I was too abrupt.”
“No, this isn’t your problem.” Caroline shook her head. “I just don’t know how to deal with this.”
“It’s fine. We still have a lot of time to get used to each other,” Edwin comforted her.
Even so, Edwin still felt a little disappointed. However, he didn’t show it, but Caroline could still vaguely capture his negative feelings.
Caroline paused for a moment, and then whispered, “Maybe I can try.”
“What did you say?” Edwin didn’t hear her clearly.
The next second, he saw Caroline tip-toe and wrap her arms around his shoulders. Then, she tilted her head and touched the corner of his mouth. “Like this?”
Edwin’s breathing stopped, and his eyes sparkled. His hands seemed to be conscious as he wrapped them around her waist. His words seemed to be a little hot as he said, “No. This is not enough.”
This time, Caroline pressed her lips against his. “How about this?”
“It’s still not enough.” Edwin looked at her, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
“That should be the case.” He lowered his head slightly, and his thin lips immediately blocked the softness, constantly absorbing the sweetness from it.
The foreign object in her mouth made Caroline’s eyes widen. She subconsciously wanted to use her tongue to push the foreign object out. In the end, she was entangled by the other party. Caroline felt her mind go blank. Even her breathing did not seem to belong to her as she followed the other party’s rhythm.
So this is what it feels like to kiss? It didn’t feel bad.
Edwin noticed Caroline’s absent-mindedness and bit her lips lightly. The slight pain brought Caroline back to her senses.
Edwin’s gaze turned even deeper. He placed his hand on Caroline’s head and looked deeper. The feeling of suffocation became more and more obvious, and Caroline could not help but place her hand on his chest.
The familiar scent of medicine wafted into her nose. It was the unique smell of a patient who had been sick for a long time. However, the chest under Caroline’s palm was so strong. When she pressed it gently, it bounced back with her fingers.
“Hiss!” Edwin grabbed her hands, and a dangerous signal flashed in his eyes. His voice became even more hoarse as he said, “Be good, don’t mess around.”
Caroline was a little unhappy. “Weren’t you the one who started it?”
“If I really wanted to mess with you, it wouldn’t be to this extent.” Edwin was hinting at something.
Caroline, who was always slow, suddenly understood the meaning of his words. She was speechless and a little shy.
She knew that as long as she didn’t want to, Edward wouldn’t force her, but he just had to use these words to stop her.
“Has anyone ever said that a delicate face like yours is not suitable for saying such words?” Caroline glared at him, but her ears were as red as red ruby earrings.
