Chapter 5

• As Leon stopped the door from closing, Celine's eyes widened. 'I had a feeling! It's not good to play with my crazy husband, she thought to herself.
• "It's better to sleep after a bath," Leon says as he walks into the bathroom.
• "Then take a bath first-" Celine was about to finish when Leon grabbed her and leaned against the wall. "Much better if you will accompany me..."
• When Celine felt the warmth of Leon's breath in her ear, she sighed. " Leon..."
• "I love hearing my name in your seductive voice..." Leon muttered as his middle finger slid down to my shoulder.
• Celine bit her lips to stop the moan, but it only increased Leon's lust.
• "Your agitated expression turns me on..."
• Leon's fingers on Celine's shoulder rose to lift her bowed face.
• "I want you, Celine White Bridgerton..."
• 'He is speaking the truth... I can see lust in his eyes, and if I look in the mirror now, I'm sure my own do! Leon's mouth... It's very kissable...
• Celine's long wait is over when Leon's lips gently brush against hers. It's so gentle... tasting every nook and cranny of the lips.
• And because it was new to Celine, she didn't expect Leon to be gentle... Celine never expected such gentleness from her husband, who is a ruthless assassin and ruler of the Underworld.
• "Undress me..." Leon said this in between kisses.
• Celine's hands rose, hypnotized by the kiss, and unbuttoned Leon's long sleeves.
• It didn't stop there... Celine rubs her finger across his bare chest, the source of Leon's mental breakdown.
• The gentle kiss was impulsive and inquisitive, and Celine responded in kind.
• Leon's hands on Celine's chin began to move down her neck... until they came to rest on the robe strap.
• "Ahh ..." When Leon's tongue explodes inside Celine's mouth, his hand lines every inch of her curve.
• But when Leon touched Celine's scar, she was stunned and trembled... The lust that had engulfed her vanished at that moment...
• No! I can't stay in the past! That is no longer the case! Celine reminded herself that the torture she endured at the hands of the people who kidnapped her is difficult to forget.
• She tries to forget about it and concentrate on Leon's kiss and touch, but she doesn't expect him to stop.
• Leon signed as he kissed Celine on the cheek. It almost kills him to stop, but if he continues, he will kill himself.
• Leon came to a halt when he sensed Celine's shiver.
• Celine was perplexed when Leon turned her around and turned on the shower.
• Leon removed Celine's robe, exposing the scar to him. He rubs and kisses it gently.
• "Doesn't it still hurt?" Leon's voice was soft. He had previously asked Erza to find a way to remove it, but Celine refused to show her body to anyone.
• "It heals..." Celine replied softly. The wound has long healed, but the scars it left on her life are still visible. The scar, on the other hand, will leave an indelible mark on her.
• "I promise to remove this scar from your life..." Leon whispered and wrapped his arms around Celine.
• Celine couldn't say anything... Leon has no idea what she is going through... They never have the opportunity to be close during the fast year... Celine isolated herself from him, so they never got to know each other...
• ---------
• It was the start of a new chapter in Leon and Celine's lives. The latter has become more vocal about her emotions.
• But, because Leon is preoccupied with his duties as a mafia boss and CEO, Celine is forced to speak with Luke on occasion.
• Luke is the only person with a clean background, so he is the only normal person in Leon's life, according to Celine.
• "Luke, I'm bored..." Celine said once while on the phone.
• "Ha, ha, ha!" I didn't expect to hear that from you!" Luke responds sarcastically.
• "Huh, I was expecting Leon to ask me out, but he never did!" Your brother is too preoccupied with work and possibly drinking with another superstar!" Celine is inevitably envious as a result of the online news. But because she couldn't tell Leon, she simply complained to Luke.
• "Come on, we both know my brother... He will never cheat on you..." Luke laughs in response. "And the solution to your boring life is very simple... "How about you ask Leon?" He teasingly added.
• Celine was taken aback because she hadn't asked Leon since then. Celine turned around and saw the man who had been the subject of their conversation. "Luke, I'll call you later... goodbye." She didn't bother waiting for his response.
• "You're early..." Celine inquired when Leon approached her.
• "Who's that?" Instead of responding, Celine Leon inquired. Despite the fact that he already knows who is on the other end of the line.
• "Oh, it's Luke..." Celine said. "Are you preoccupied? "May I speak with you for a moment?"
• "What is it?" Leon asked as he walked into his office, turning to hide his annoyance.
• Celine was nervously following Leon. "With the holiday approaching, we can—"
• "I don't celebrate holidays..." Leon cut Celine off in the middle of her sentence.
• Celine's smile vanished instantly, replaced by sadness. She assumed Leon would agree because their relationship had changed, but she was mistaken.
• "Are you willing to make some exceptions this year?" I've been missing my family and the activities we've been doing lately..." Celine says with tears in her eyes.
• Leon locks his gaze on Celine. He came home because he missed her so much, but when he saw Celine laughing while talking to Luke on the phone, he became enraged.
• Leon has never been jealous in his life... until now! The worst part is with his brother! "Please..." Celine begged.
• Leon signed, "Let me think about it..." Leon's cold and hard heart softened when he saw Celine's cat-eye pleading with him.
• Celine couldn't keep from embracing Leon. "Thank you..." she says softly as she kisses him on the cheek.
