The kiss between Kai and Bast lingered with warmth, a quiet promise between their lips. As they pulled apart, breathless but connected, Kai softly asked, "You wanted to tell me something?"
Instead of answering, Bast bent down and effortlessly scooped Kai into his arms. "I'll tell you inside," he said with a smile, carrying him toward the resort villa by the shore.
Kai blinked in surprise. "What are you doing?"
"Don't worry," Bast replied, pushing the door open. "There's no one here but us. I booked the entire resort for the night."
Inside, the room was filled with the soft fragrance of fresh flowers. Warm candlelight flickered along the walls, casting golden glows on the curtains that fluttered in the night breeze. The space radiated romance—intimate, quiet, and made just for them.
Bast gently laid Kai down on the bed as if placing something precious. "So… what now?" Kai whispered, his heart pounding in his chest.
