Eli's lips continued their gentle exploration, trailing soft kisses down to the delicate skin of Lily's neck. His touch was feather-light, sending shivers coursing through her as his warm breath danced across her skin. The tender kisses seemed to ignite a spark within her, and she felt herself melting into his touch, her senses heightened as she absorbed the intimacy of the moment.
As Eli's teeth grazed the sensitive skin of Lily's neck, she let out a soft moan, the sound barely above a whisper. The gentle nibble sent a thrill through her, and her body responded instinctively, her breath catching in her throat. Eli's lips lingered on her skin, the sensation building as he savored the intimacy of the moment, their connection growing more intense with every passing second.
Eli looked up and his gaze met Lily's, he kissed her lips tenderly, the connection between them palpable. He then shifted his attention to her ear, his teeth gently grazing the lobe, sending a shiver down her spine. In a soft, husky whisper, he murmured, "I LOVE YOU, LILY. DON'T EVER LEAVE ME."
His words filled the air with emotion followed by a tender kiss on her forehead, his lips lingering for a few seconds, as if savoring the moment. Then, Eli wrapped his arms around her, drawing her close as he laid down beside her. The warmth of his body enveloped her, and Lily felt safe and cherished in his embrace. As they settled into the stillness together, the gentle rhythm of their breathing synchronized, creating a sense of peaceful unity.
They both enjoyed each other's presence and silently laid beside each other, the quiet intimacy between them a reflection of the comfort and connection they shared.
An hour late, with a gentle tone Eli spoke up, "It's getting close to lunchtime, shall we head to your parents' home?"
Lily nodded, and they both got out of bed, getting ready to head out. Just as they were about to exit, Lily halted, and Eli, still holding her hand, turned to her. Their gazes met, and Lily's voice filled with emotion as she whispered, "I LOVE YOU TOO, ELI. I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU."
She wrapped her arms around him tightly, and Eli's face softened into a gentle smile as he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close. A few minutes later, they left their room and walked out of the hotel, hands still clasped together.
As they drove to Lily's parents' home, her eyes suddenly landed on a dumpling shop, and she excitedly urged Eli, "Eli, Eli, Eli, stop the car, stop the car!" Her enthusiasm was infectious, and Eli couldn't help but chuckle as he quickly pulled over to the side of the road.
"What's the matter?" Eli asked, his expression was curious as he glanced over at Lily, clearly puzzled by what prompted her to ask him to stop the car so abruptly.
Lily's voice was gentle as she pointed out the dumpling shop, her words barely above a whisper: "Well, there's a dumpling shop there, I want to eat them." Her tone conveyed a quiet longing, and Eli's gaze followed her gaze to the shop.
Eli's smile widened as he chuckled, "Let's get some dumplings then!" he said, and turned off the engine. His eyes lit up with amusement as he stepped out of the car and walked with her to the dumpling shop to satisfy her cravings.
The dumpling shop was small and cozy, with red lanterns hanging outside and a warm aroma of steaming dumplings wafting out. Lily exchanged an excited glance with Eli before stepping inside the shop.
The owner, with a friendly smile, warmly welcomed them, and Eli ordered a variety of dumplings for Lily to try, from classic pork to spicy lamb and delicate vegetable options.
Lily's eyes lit up as she took a bite, and a look of satisfaction crossed her face. She smiled at Eli, clearly delighted by the delicious dumplings.
