Golden ginkgo leaves filled the air, and in that moment, it felt like the world had faded away, leaving just the two of them in a lingering kiss.
Meanwhile, little Aiden was still waiting in the car. It didn’t take long before they walked back.
“Daddy, Mommy, where’d you go?” Aiden blinked those big eyes, full of innocence.
“Uh…” Lilah was caught off guard and didn’t know how to answer.
Gabriel, calm as ever, replied vaguely, “We just went to check out the other hill’s ginkgo trees.”
Just one casual sentence to brush it off, but his burning gaze swept over the little woman, desire still smoldering in his eyes.
“Are we gonna stay in the Ginkgo House tonight?” Aiden clutched arms full of ginkgo leaves, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
“Most likely, yeah.”
Gabriel
