Chapter 1207:

A wave of dizziness overtook Elyse as she murmured, “Yet, you seem unaffected. Are you sure you’re feeling its effects?”

With a reassuring tone, Jayden replied, “I endure more than it seems, and I excel at maintaining appearances.”

Elyse gave a faint nod and a trusting look. “I understand now.”

Seeing her guileless response brought a slight smile to Jayden’s lips. His girl remained beautifully naive.

He embraced her once more and gently asked, “You’ve adjusted well; may I proceed as I desire? I’ve restrained myself to avoid causing you pain.”

With heartfelt simplicity, Elyse consented. “Please do. You’re suffering too, so seek your comfort. I’m here with you.”

Jayden softly nibbled on Elyse’s ear, playfully cautioning, “And if I make you cry? You might blame me, grow upset, and reject me.”

“Elyse,” her voice filled with unwavering trust, assured him, “That won’t happen. Any fault lies with Amanda, not us. Our focus must be on finding our own relief.”

With repeated gentle kisses, Jayden reassured her, “Hold on tight. I promise not to hurt you. We’ll simply lose ourselves in an endless tide of ecstasy.”

Before she could process her thoughts, his movements resumed with intensity.

Through the night, Elyse cried and pleaded from the bed, each plea silenced by Jayden’s soothing kisses.

As dawn painted the sky with its early light, Elyse felt Jayden withdraw from her embrace. She was so drained that she blinked sleepily several times before succumbing to sleep once more.

Meanwhile, Jayden, still beside her, watched over her with a thoughtful gaze. Concerned that she might be distressed, he gently carried her to the bathroom to help her clean up.

After resting for a few hours, Jayden got up to attend to some urgent matters.

In the afternoon, Elyse awoke to find Jayden’s side of the bed empty. She dressed with difficulty, her legs shaky from the previous night’s exertions.

She remembered the intensity of their encounter and wondered about Jayden’s calmness, questioning whether he really felt the effects of the aphrodisiac he claimed.

Her thoughts were abruptly interrupted when she reached the open area of the base and found Amanda and several men gathering around Jayden.

Jayden was issuing orders. “You’re in command of the cleanup operation in Area A. Ensure you leave no enemy behind. Understood?” . . .
