"For a second, I just watched her, my own heart racing unexpectedly. Her face was flushed, her lips soft and inviting, and I could see the nervousness in the way she tensed under my touch. But she wasn't pulling away.
I leaned in slowly, my gaze fixed on her rosy lips. My pulse quickened as I closed the distance between us, pressing my lips gently against hers. Her breath hitched in surprise, but she didn't move away. Instead, she relaxed into the kiss, her lips soft and warm against mine."

Sophie became limp after an accident while saving an old grandma. Her parents, who resented her, laughed and said, "No one will marry a limping girl. Marry an old man and bring us the dowry money!" She thought her life was useless now.
Until, the grandma's handsome grandson appeared with a shocking marriage proposal: "Marry me and I'll help you with your leg surgery!"
She was stunned. "But I'm just a poor girl with a limp leg… why would you marry me?”
His lips curled up into a smirk. "At least, I'll have a silly girl as my wife."
Blinded by desperation and hope, Sophie agreed. Only later did she discover her new husband's true identity.
Dominic William, London's most elusive billionaire, notorious for his icy heart and disdain for women.
