Chapter 78

Wasis let out a shallow breath, but it did little to ease the tension in his chest,

His pupils dilated and contracted, emotions surging as a soft touch landed on the top of his head. His body andinctively tightened his hands at his sides slowly curling into fists, and his breathing grew heavier, uneven and strained.

His lips pressed into a firm line as he fought the urge to flip over and push her away. His eyes darkened, the resistance within every passing moment

“Why don’t you try closing your eyes?” Zinnia’s soft, steady voice drifted into his ears, accompanied by the gentle pressure of her hand on his head

The sharp edge of his resistance dulled slightly, the storm within him easing as his pupils gradually lightened in color

Yannis’s gaze shifted slightly. Beside him, Zinnia extended her pale arm, her slender fingers threading through his soft black hair.

Her eyes, clear and bright like polished glass, were filled with earnestness. They were nothing like the bloodthirsty pazes of those people-

and utterly untainted. It was the kind of purity that made one want to shield it from the world.

His thoughts swirled in chaos–flashes of these bloodthirsty eyes, then hers, so overly pure it was almost unreal. And amid it all, her voice, soft and sweet, lingered in his mind,

Yannis shut his eyes, his fists clenching tightly as if trying to hold himself together.

“Are you close with my brother?” Zinnia asked

Teah, we’ve known each other for years.” Yannis replied.

“Our families have been connected for a long time, so we all grew up knowing each other. But I skipped a grade and ended up in his high school class Later, we both majored in finance in college, and our friendship deepened”

“You’re really good at cooking. Your future wife’s going to be lucky,” Zinniaremarked with a grin.

Yannis chuckled softly. Tm in no rush to get married. But if you like my cooking, I don’t mind making it for you again next time.” The quat atmosphere was starting to feel stifling, and talking seemed to ease the tension.

Her soft voice drifted into his ears, like a gentle breeze soothing the tension he hadn’t even realized he was holding. The stress from days of sleeplessness gradually melted away.

“Okay.” Zinnia responded gently, noticing his gradual relaxation.

come up if you need anything. Tomorrow, I’ll add your fingerprint to the lock so you can innis, you live right downstairs, My door code is BG13- come in anytime,” Yannis said. He realized he was talking more than usual–a change he hadn’t even noticed.

Yannis was the type who rarely initiated conversations. He’d only respond if something caught his interest, and if he was in a bad mood, he wouldn’t bother hiding it—he’d ignore everyone without caring their feelings.

But Zinnia was ever quieter than him. If he didn’t talk to her, she wouldn’t talk to him either. It wasn’t that she was being aloof, she simply didn’t know

“No need…” Zinnia said softly, her tone calm and detached.

This encounter was purely by chance. Yannis was always busy, and according to Jackson, he often worked late and even stayed on night at the office. This time, they just happened to cross paths when he came home.

“Let’s add your fingerprint. That way, I won’t have to worry. If something happens and I’m not home, or I don’t hear the doorbell, you won’t be locked out,” Yannis explained, Zinnia stayed silent, not responding

“When’s your birthday, Zinnia?” Yannis asked, noticing she’d gone quiet again, like a shy httle quail.

“July 28th,” Zinnia answered plainte

July 28th. It had already passed. Yannis lowered his gaze, talling silent for a moment.

The living room grew quiet. Zinnia glanced at him, her gate lingering Up close, he was so stonning it felt unreal

His skin was like jade, and his features were so perfect it was as if they’d been sculpted by a master artist–flawless and balarred in marry de

His eyebrows were perfectly shaped, his lashes long and dark, and his nose was high and straight, accented by a tiny mole that added a truth of Even his lips were naturally rosy, like he didn’t need any help to look this good. His entire face was flawles, mastpiece of both bone structure

Zinnia thought he was the second person she’d seen who was so breathtakingly beautiful, both in appearance and bone structure. The first acas her master, who was also stunning

Locking at Yannis up close filled Zinnia with satisfaction. ‘Massaging him and getting to admire this view? Not bad at all she thought

“Do you think I’m good–looking? Yannis asked, his gaze lifting to meet hers at some point.

“You’re gorgeous,” Zinnia replied earnestly, showing no sign of embarrassment for being caught staring.

“Men aren’t described as gorgeous. That’s not a word people use for guys, as said with a helpless smile, looking at her serious little fac

Only Zinnia would dare to stare at him like that and seriously call him “gorgeous

“But you are! You’re even more gorgeous than most girls,” Zinnia insisted, genuinely confused as to why the word couldn’t apply to him. To her, he was undeniably gorgeous.
