"In that case..." "I just had a bit of wine. Just a little bit... Josiah said.
The skin op her neck was rather sensitive, and she could feel Josiah's forehead grow increasingly hot. Moreover, as he spoke, his lips moved, nearly brushing against her collarbone.

"Just a while ago, a woman who bears a striking resemblance to you clooking forin the cabin. I thought it was you." He was talking about the girl outside the cabin.

"Pfft! It's more than that," Josiah sneered.

The weight of a grown man was indeed somewhat overwhelming.
At that very moment, there was a knock at the cabin door. “Josiah? Josiah, are you in there?" Josiah muttered a curse under his breath.
In a hushed voice, Lysander asked him, "What on earth is Lysanne up to?"
Josiah laughed dismissively and replied, "Who knows what she's up to? She clearly said she'd back off before, even willing to letbe with you. I didn't guard myself. I didn't expect her to actually bring that woman here..." "Who exactly is that woman?"

There must be someone inside." X
