Chapter 175 Love Me More

“Chloe, do you know what you’re doing?” asked Brian, raising a brow.

“Of course. I’m just tipsy, not drunk,” Chloe replied.

Her lips brushed against his. At the same time, she reached out to unfasten his tie and unbutton his shirt.

Bit by bit, more of his chest was exposed. Her hand glided under his shirt, gently caressing his skin, which was cool to the touch. It soothed her body, which had become warm after all the alcohol she’d had.

Brian gulped as her fingers danced across his skin. A burning desire spread through him.

“Chloe, I want to…” He tried to get up, but she pushed him down.

She announced, “Don’t move. I’ll take the lead today.”

He looked taken aback. “Are you sure?”

“Yeah. When you took the lead, you… lost control easily. It’s best if I do it myself.” She hadn’t forgotten the sheer exhaustion she’d felt after the last time they’d been intimate.

Brian found her reason rather amusing, but he went along with it. “Sure. You take the lead. What should I do?”

Squinting, she suggested, “Stay there and don’t move. Now…”

Her eyes wandered to the tie that she’d cast aside. Picking it up, she used it to tie his wrists

together.

All the while, he obediently allowed her to do whatever she wanted. He teased her, asking, Did you really think you could hold me down with a tie?”

“It’s a struggle to break free,” she said with a chuckle. Her flushed cheeks made her look ever more charming. “Besides…”

She made a bow with the tie. “Lena told me that tying up your man in bed spices things up, wanted to try it out.”

Brian’s desire was overflowing by now. He wondered if she would remember these words when she sobered up. He also couldn’t believe what Lena had been teaching her.

“Promise me that I’ll be the only man you tie up in bed.” He glared at Chloe, much to her

amusement.

“I don’t have any other man to tie up except for you.”

“Even if you do, you shouldn’t! Chloe, tie me up if that’s what you want. I’ll satisfy all of your kinks,” he promised her.

He would do anything to keep her happy. After all, what he feared the most was that she would grow tired of him.

Chloe traced his brows and eyes with her fingers, finally resting on his lips. “Okay. You’re the only man in my life.”

She kissed his lips. Moments later, she started making her way past his jaw, neck, and further

south.

He was fully undressed by now. She took in the view. “How gorgeous.”

“You like it?”

She praised him earnestly. “I like it. Your curves are a perfect mix of beauty and strength…‘

“Do you still like my body even with the scars?” he asked.

As he’d expected, pain flashed across Chloe’s eyes. She reassured him, “Yes.”

But only Brian knew he was fishing for her pity, love, and attention by mentioning his old

scars.

Was it some sort of self–esteem issue? Was he afraid that she wasn’t that into him? Perhaps he feared that she would discard him at the first sign of trouble in their relationship.

He mumbled, “If so, love me more.”

She found herself melting away in his raspy, seductive voice.

The ringing doorbell woke Lena up early in the morning. Who was doing that at such an ungodly hour?

She staggered to the door, fighting to keep her eyes open. She and Ethan must have had too much to drink last night.

It had all started with Ethan drinking alone. She’d taken a few sips to humor him but had ended up drinking way more than she’d planned. In the end, she’d been dizzy and had

struggled to even send Ethan home.

She answered the door. “Who is it?”

Her mind went blank when she saw the familiar guest.

Why was Thomas in front of her? Was it an illusion?

She rubbed her eyes and slammed the door shut.

Ethan’s voice sounded behind her. “Who was it?”

She was caught off guard. Turning around, she struggled to process the sight of Ethan walking toward her.

Why was Ethan at her place? She thought she’d sent him home last night.

“Who’s at the door?” he asked groggily, rubbing his temples.

Before she could answer, the doorbell buzzed again. She sobered up a little, and it finally dawned on her that she was at Ethan’s apartment. Had she fallen asleep right there after bringing him home?

Since she wasn’t responding, Ethan moved past her and answered the door.

He was greeted by the sight of a scowling Thomas. Thomas‘ expression darkened even more when he saw Ethan looking disheveled in his pajamas and Lena a complete mess.

“Looks like I’ve interrupted your good time.”

Lena staggered to the side, nearly bumping into the wall.

Ethan hurriedly clarified, “Nothing happened between us! Don’t accuse us of something we didn’t do!”

Lena nodded along. “Thomas, don’t you worry. Even if I’m horny, I won’t lay a finger on your nephew.”

She knew better than to get involved with Ethan. Only Chloe could rein Ethan in. As for her, she might end up in the hospital if she tried to do the same.

Thomas‘ expression relaxed, and he invited himself in. With his eyes fixed on Lena, he interrogated her. “Why are you here?”

“Why do I have to tell you?” she snapped.

Thomas casually threatened her. “Fine. Don’t tell me. I’ll assume that you’re up to no good. You’d better not regret it when the police knock on your door.”

She nearly choked from anger. But she decided to come clean when she realized she was facing off against Thomas, a top–notch lawyer who’d never lost a case.

“I brought Ethan home because he was drunk, and I spent the night here”

Both men looked aghast when they heard the confession, especially Thomas.

Ethan even coughed up the water he’d been sipping.

“You spent the night here? Did you share a bed?” Thomas raised a brow, knowing full well that there was only one bedroom and one bed in the apartment.

Lena blinked. She couldn’t be sure.

She’d woken up in bed that morning. At that time, she hadn’t noticed Ethan at all and had merely assumed she was at her place.

Where had Ethan been sleeping then? She and Thomas glanced at Ethan.
