At the exact same moment the system message appeared in Liam's mind, his body reacted.
A sudden heat spread through his chest and lower stomach. His forehead quickly filled with sweat as he tried to fight and suppress whatever was rising inside him. His breathing grew heavier without his permission. The arm he had wrapped around Irina tightened on its own.
So this was it.
He finally understood.
This was why she had been sweating all day. The strange fruit did not simply affect the mind. It affected the body as well. And now that same effect was beginning to work on him.
Irina was not helping his condition either.
She shifted on the bed and wiggled slightly, pressing her soft ass more firmly against him. The slow, unconscious movement made the thick curve of her rear rub directly against the front of his body. Liam's jaw tightened. He did not even realize when his arm locked around her waist even harder than before.
He forced himself to let go.
