Eros continued walking to the area where there were no people present. He wanted to be alone. His heart was aching because of jealousy.

He didn't notice that Selene was already following him behind. She saw Eros walking towards the sea.

'Eh, what is he trying to do here? Is he planning to go for a swim even though he is already drunk?' Selene asked herself as she observed Eros.

She walked hurriedly to catch up with him. She was afraid that Gabriel might drown himself because of drunkenness.

"Gab! Wait! Stop!! Don't go further!" Selene tried calling him but Eros was lost in his thoughts that he couldn't hear Selene's voice.

The sound of the wind blowing and the waves kissing the sand were the only sounds that he could hear right now.

Selene felt alarmed when Eros submerged into the seawater. She dashed in his direction, following his path.

She was glad that the moonlight and shining lights coming from the stars helped her see Eros's location.

"Gosh, Gabriel! You are insane!" Selene was scolding him in her mind as she swam towards his spot.

Eros continued walking until he reached the deep part of the sea. His entire body was already under the water.

Then he just found himself being dragged by someone going back to the shore. Before he knew it, Selene was already standing in front of him with her worried look.

Her bohemian dress was soaking wet. Her hair was dripping. Her body trembled and shivered as she felt the cold ocean breeze blowing her wet skin.

"Are you crazy, Gab?! You drank lots of beer and after that, you decided to go for a swim. Are you trying to drown yourself?" Selene scolded Eros with her trembling voice.

Eros didn't absorb her words since he was focused on Selene's beautiful face. Just a while ago, he felt so empty. But now that she was here, Eros felt like he had found the missing piece of his heart.

His dull eyes suddenly brightened up like the sparkling stars in the night sky.

"Selene…" he mumbled softly before engulfing her shivering body into his arms.

Selene was caught off guard when Eros suddenly hugged her. He gripped her body so tightly that her soft breasts were already pressed on his sturdy chest.

Selene tried to struggle but Eros held her closer.

"You're cold. Let me give you some warmth," Eros softly said to stop her from struggling.

Selene reflexively stopped when she heard Eros. It was true that she felt cold but he warmed her body through his embrace.

Selene punched his chest while saying, "This is your fault! You made me worry. I had no choice but to follow you in the water."

"Are you worried about me? But why?" Eros asked her expectantly.

"I thought you were mad at me…" Eros added with his saddened voice.

He recalled how Selene scolded him a while ago in front of Grandma Elysa and three ladies from the photographer's team.

On the other hand, Selene realized that he was thinking that she was mad at him because of the hurtful words she said a while ago.

"Yes, of course, I am worried about you. You are my friend, Gab. Furthermore, I followed you here to apologize properly. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scold you like that."

Eros's unhappiness that he felt moments ago suddenly disappeared because of Selene's last remarks.

Without saying a word, Eros suddenly carried her, completely leaving the seashore.

Selene was about to complain and demand him to put her down when suddenly she just found herself lying on the sand while Eros was on top of her.

Selene's eyes widened as this kind of position was very familiar to her. It happened many times when Eros trapped her and pinned her down on her own bed.

She immediately placed her two hands on Eros's chest, trying to push him away.

"Gabriel, w-what are you doing?" Selene asked him anxiously.

Her heart started racing rapidly again inside her chest. Eros aka Gabriel could always make her feel this kind of nervousness.

Eros was now staring at her with his eyes filled with desire. The alcohol was clouding Eros's judgment right now.

He let his emotions and feelings overpower him. His eyes lingered on Selene's anxious face. Then his lips curled up into a mischievous smile.

"Gabriel?!! What the hell are you trying to do here? Get off of me! Now!"

Selene repeated her question, still pushing Eros but he didn't even move an inch.

"Selene, do you want to get intimate with Renz, but you don't know how to do it, am I right?"

Selene was taken aback when she heard that.

'Huh? How did Gabriel know this? I only told Eros about this? Did he overhear our conversation?' Selene was looking at Eros with disbelief.

Then she shook her head at that thought.

'No, that's impossible. I talked to Eros inside my room. There's no way that Eros would share this with Gabriel. So how come he knew this?' Selene pondered to herself.

Selene snapped out of her train of thoughts when Eros had spoken again.

"I can help you with that, Selene. I can be your partner. Try to practice it with me first, before applying it with Renz," Eros shamelessly suggested to Selene.

Selene was rendered speechless. Her jaw dropped with utter disbelief. She couldn't believe that Gabriel would suggest this kind of absurd idea.

'Gabriel, why are you scaring me with this kind of look?' Selene gulped hard as she met Eros's penetrating gaze.

The playful smile on his face already disappeared. It was replaced by his serious expression and a kind of look as if he was ready to devour her.

"G-Gab… y-you are just kidding me, right? Don't joke like this. T-This is not funny…"

Selene felt helpless. Her heart was pounding so hard. His scorching gaze was making her more conscious.

Eros bent down, his face inching closer and closer to hers. Selene held her breath. She didn't know what to do.

Her mind was telling her to push Eros and shout for help but her body was already frozen in her spot. She couldn't shout nor utter some words because of the closeness of their faces.

Furthermore, she was already mesmerized by his sparkling blue eyes. His charming looks had some kind of hypnotizing effect. She couldn't help but be lost in a trance.

"I'm not joking… I will teach you. Hmm. Why don't we start with a kiss? You are planning to kiss him tomorrow's pictorial, right?"

A cold glint flashed through Eros's eyes when he recalled the photographer's suggestion of Renz and Selene kissing each other during the photoshoot.

Selene was still tongue-tied. She could see the changes in Eros's expression. Selene didn't know why but she thought she saw a gleam of jealousy in Gabriel's eyes.

"Gabriel… please…"

Eros's hand started caressing Selene's cheek.

He even traced her lips using his fingers as he asked her, "Please what, Selene? Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Touch you like this?" Eros whispered with his sensual voice as his hand started moving from her cheeks down her neck, collarbones, and her shoulders.

Selene's heart raced even faster when Eros started caressing her skin with his warm hand. The coldness was long gone. Selene's body started to feel hot because of Eros's touch.

Selene was still trying to calm herself when suddenly she felt his hot breath fanning her face. Her body stiffened the moment his soft lips touched the sensitive part of her neck.

Selene let out a surprised moan. She bit her lower lip to stop herself from making unnecessary sounds.

"Or kiss you like this?" Eros cooed in her ear, before kissing her earlobe.

Selene could only clutch her hand on Eros's wet shirt as she closed her eyes. Her breathing became erratic. She couldn't explain why but her body was reacting to his touch.

'Gosh! What is happening to me? I should push him away. But I can't resist him. Is Gabriel playing with me now? Is he trying to seduce me or what? Why is he doing this?'

"Gabriel," She called him again. But her voice didn't sound like she was mad or against this.

Eros didn't stop his advances. His hand was now tracing her waist and her side. It stopped at the side of her breast.

Selene gulped hard once again and almost forgot to breathe when Eros's lips went back to her collarbones.

He started nibbling, sucking, and licking her skin. His sensual action caused Selene to let out another suppressed moan.

"Gab… please… stop," Selene's words were the opposite of her action.

Her grip on his shirt tightened and she unconsciously pulled him closer to her body, instead of pushing him away.

Eros could no longer stop himself from claiming Selene's lips once again. He stopped teasing her as he grabbed her chin, kissing her aggressively and passionately.

For some unknown reason, Selene was returning his kiss with equal passion.
