NovelGoldChapter 479:
A sick realization hit him.
He froze, focusing inward. His face darkened. He'd been drugged—without even realizing it.
“Freya,” he called, his voice low and magnetic, thick with an edge he didn’t mean to have.
Freya turned, her wide eyes ringed with lashes, curious and watchful. She caught the look in his eyes and her
brows creased. “What is it?”
“Do you feel anything strange in your system?” Kristian asked, his voice raspier now, as the heat inside him

Kristian turned and disappeared into the bathroom, locking the door behind him.
A moment later, the sound of running water echoed through the room. Freya instantly understood what he
meant.
But if he'd been drugged like that, a cold shower wouldn't do much, would it?
Kristian proved her right soon enough.
The icy water only cooled his skin—his body burned hotter than ever. The desire surged stronger than it had on
their wedding night. It was relentless, maddening.
But one thing rang clear through it all. He couldn't touch Freya. No matter how much they fought, how deep their
resentment ran—she wasn’t his wife anymore. He couldn't cross that line.

cool, floated through 1% dGof ahd

To him, her voice was both salvation and torture.
Memories rose like a flood. He couldn't afford to lose control—he’d regret it for the rest of his life.
