"Thank you for your tenderness then," Mitchel said, his voice brimming with sincerity. At that time, he began to recognize what he felt for her, moved by her consideration and affection.

Raegan was surprised by his gesture of gratitude, appreciating that he didn't take her previous effort and sacrifice for granted. It warmed his heart a little, diminishing the slight feeling of bitterness he had previously harbored.

Seeing Raegan trapped in her thoughts, Mitchel teased her by pinching her cheek, adopting a playful tone: "I promise to treat you well from now on."

"Who said I want that?" Raegan, cheeks flushed, continued feeding Mitchel.

Mitchel obediently did not speak until he finished his porridge.

«You've never said that. "I just want to treat you well."

"That?" For a moment, Raegan lost track of her conversation.

Mitchel, gently holding her face, emphasized each word: "I want to treat you well."

Feeling her earlobes burning with embarrassment, Raegan turned around, quickly changing the subject. "How did you convince my brother?"

Under his gaze, her blush intensified, highlighting the pink warmth of her earlobes.

Mitchel leaned toward her, unable to contain himself, and kissed her softly.

“Ah…” Raegan let out a soft murmur, her hands flying to cover her ears, feeling a warmth spread through her palms.

Just as he was about to express his anger, Mitchel piqued his curiosity: “Do you want to know?”

Her curiosity increased and Raegan couldn't help but nod impatiently.

With a chuckle, Mitchel pinched her chin, hiding his response with mystery. "It's a secret."

Raegan was speechless, her emotions a mix of amusement and slight irritation. His thoughts stirred. Had they made some secret deal? Had his brother betrayed his trust? But it couldn't be.

"I'll reveal it in due time," Mitchel assured him, noticing his sullen expression.

"And how long will it be?" she insisted, her curiosity intact.

His gaze intensified as he whispered, "When you agree to be my wife."

Once again, Raegan was speechless. «Keep dreaming! "Who wants to be your wife?" he replied, feigning indignation.

Mitchel, unfazed by her reply, simply smiled and looked at her affectionately.

«Well, you've never said that. But I really want you to be my wife..."

He paused deliberately before continuing, "My love story is with you." Raegan was left speechless. Why did he seem unfazed by my reply? he wondered silently.

The scent of Mitchel's fresh bath lingered, suggesting a closeness that made Raegan's heart race. He quickly looked away, his pulse racing.

Mitchel noticed her shyness and, with a smile, took a step back, heading to the bathroom to clean up.

Meanwhile, Raegan turned her attention to the grapes on the nightstand, beginning to peel them and eat them. When Mitchel came out, he casually asked, "Do you want one?"

Just after those words escaped her lips, Raegan realized that Mitchel might have brushed his teeth in the bathroom. So he continued putting the grapes in his mouth. The grapes burst with sweetness, their juice glistening on his lips.

Mitchel leaned into her, unable to resist. "I'd like some," he declared.

Cheeks flushed and grapes still in her mouth, Raegan hesitated.

“There is…” Before she could finish, her words were silenced by his kiss.

Her protest was silenced when Mitchel's kiss deepened and his tongue sought out the sweet grapes, sharing their flavor.

Overwhelmed, Raegan's mind emptied and her gaze locked with his, lost in the unexpected intensity of the moment.

Mitchel's Adam's apple bobbed noticeably as he savored the grapes and his gaze locked with Raegan's.

In her daze, Raegan felt like he was absorbing not just the grapes, but her entire being. Her cheeks flushed and her heart raced uncontrollably.

Unbeknownst to her, the shyness in her eyes was captivating to him. Mitchel's next action was quick. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to him.

“Hey!” Raegan exclaimed. Raegan exclaimed, suddenly feeling held in his embrace. She resisted, pushing against his chest, her voice tinged with frustration. "Why did you kiss me?"

Mitchel, unfazed by her squirm, responded, “It's part of the dating dance. Kisses, hugs and what follows..." His gaze was penetrating, leaving no doubt about his intentions.

Raegan's cheeks flushed even more under his scrutinizing gaze. She replied: “That's not right! You have to start by holding hands, then hug and kiss at the end, right?

"There's no problem," Mitchel conceded calmly. "We will go at your pace."

Raegan was speechless, her eyes wide. "I didn't agree to go out with you!" he managed to say, his mind racing. Mitchel was cunning, an expert at setting traps.

"I have already received your brother's blessing." Mitchel stared at her, his eyes conveying a message. Erick's consent to Raegan's visit was, in essence, silent approval.

Raegan, feeling cornered, replied, "If my brother has given his blessing, maybe you should court him!"

Mitchel's expression hardened, his grip tightening on the back of Raegan's neck as he pulled her closer, a tone of menace in his voice.

“You are the one I want!” The raw desire in his eyes was unmistakable, making Raegan shudder slightly.

Raegan managed to say, "I never say yes to you."

"Because? "Not to what?" Mitchel insisted, his voice harsh, making her blush a bright shade of red. His smile was meaningful, he seemed to enjoy making her feel shy.

With a mix of indignation and embarrassment, Raegan muttered, “I just…

I... Not sharing the bed..."

"So, hugs and kisses are allowed?" Mitchel raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in his voice. "Understood."

Raegan was amazed at his ability to warp his words, her frustration boiling. "None of that is right!"
