His heart was thumping loudly. Each pulse sounded like a drum, as if it would jump into her hand any second.
Raegan said, That doesnt show you have feelings for me. Maybe your heart is just racing. You might need to see a doctor
Before she could finish, Mitchel leaned in and kised her.
Their lips barely touched initially, but the connection seemed to spark an unforeseen magic, quickly drawing them in deeper.
The warmth of the underfloor heating seemed to intensify their kis.
The air was charged with a subtle scent of romance.
Mitchels lean, strong hand moved to the back of Raegans head, gently caressing her hair as he deepened the kis.
The kis started tender and soft but soon intensified, charged with Mitchels vigorous passion.
Raegan was overwhelmed, losing her sense of response, unconsciously letting out a soft moan
The kis deepened, its intensity growing. If not for considering Raegans recent recovery, Mitchel would have wished it to last even longer.
When Mitchel finally released her, Raegan leaned against his hand, her legs feeling weak. Her cheeks glowed like a peach kised by morning dew.

Mitchel clenched his jaw, his Adams apple bobbing as he said, Now do you see? Its not just about my heart racing. Its because I constantly want you.
Raegan, overwhelmed by his words, pulled away slightly and scolded him, her face still flushed, Youre speaking nonsense again.
But Mitchel, with a slight smile and in a soft tone, replied, Its not nonsense. It might sound clich, but truly, youre the only one whos ever made me feel this way.
With that, he drew her back into his embrace with his strong arms.
Raegans cheeks, still pink, rested against his shoulder, her demeanor almost childlike.
After a moment of silence, Mitchels voice, deep and compelling, broke through. Raegan, all these years, I feel like Ive been losing you repeatedly until the day I realized my life had a time limit. Thats when I started doing things for you, believing they were right.
I thought clearing every obstacle from your path and leaving you all my wealth and care for you and our kids was the best thing to do.

Back then, I was so desperate that I was compelled to push you away, having neglected how you felt all the while. I lived every day as if I were tearing out my own heart without seeing how wrong I was. I thought I was suffering enough, having punished myself adequately
Until I experienced the same treatment from you that I gave, I never truly understood your pain. The kind that can make life feel unbearable. Watching you choose someone else, I kept telling myself that if sacrificing my feelings brought you happiness, then it was worth it. But when your water broke and you collapsed, my first thought was that I couldnt afford to lose you.
At that critical moment, Mitchel considered handling her final affairs and then joined her in eternal rest if she hadnt made it.
Even as he donated his blood for her, these thoughts lingered.
Should Raegan perished, his life seemed pointless. Unknowingly, Mitchel found himself couldnt live on without her.
Before meeting Raegan, Mitchel couldnt fathom loving someone so deeply, eager to do everything for her while also wrestling with the urge to force her back to his side. He had somewhat become a mix of generosity and selfishness.
