CHAPTER 104

She had soon forgotten the time and that a minute was over but she listened still.

A part of her wished she could deduce the thoughts running through his mind but no matter how she listened to his heartbeat, she could not carry out that task.

Ultimately, Raven lost herself to this newfound search, loving the calm such a task brought her.

After a while, Xavier breathed out sharply, stunning Raven with his actions and bringing her mind back to reality.

"It is more than a minute already," she reminded him.

"I know."

"You said I…"

"Stay, Raven. I wish to remain like this, please."

Having him use the magic word, she found her resolve to crumble, specifically after she had just enjoyed listening to his heartbeat.

For the next few minutes, she threw caution to the wind, forgetting the position she was in and allowing him to do what he wanted.
