Chapter 782

The moment Tyler thought of what had happened previously, he rubbed his temples in irritation.

Ray seemed to understand what he said and looked at him while whining on the floor.

Rachel scooped Ray up and rubbed his furry face. “Look how cute Ray is! He’s definitely not going to cause trouble tonight, right?”

Ray barked twice in response, as if agreeing.

Rachel pressed her forehead against Ray’s. “Good boy.”

She turned to Tyler. “Besides, he’s the only dog at home. I guess it’s only natural for him to feel a little lonely sometimes.”

Tyler suddenly realized something. “So what you’re saying is, if we got him a companion, that would solve the problem?”

“Yeah, pretty much. At least then he probably wouldn’t be clinging to us all the time.”

Rachel thought he was just making small talk, so she answered casually.

Tyler tucked the blanket over her. Rachel instinctively grabbed the corner of it.

“Don’t cover me that much, I’m not cold.”

As Tyler leaned closer to her, he caught a faint scent. He sniffed again.

“What did you just drink?”

“Oh, Wanda said she brewed some new wine earlier, so I tried a bit. It’s really good. Do you want to try some?”

Rachel could still taste the delicious flavor in her mouth. She was completely unaware of the look in Tyler’s eyes.

“Yeah, I’d like to. I was curious about Wanda’s wine, anyway,” he said.

“It’s really good. I’ll tell Wanda to pour you a glass.”

She was secretly thinking she could sneak another glass for herself.

Just as she started to lift the blanket, Tyler yanked her back.

He leaned forward, tilted her chin up with his fingers, and said hoarsely, “No need for all that trouble.”

Before Rachel could react, his lips were already on hers.

The faint taste of wine lingered in her mouth, but it was intoxicating, like a drink with much higher proof.

It made them both feel a little drunk. Their kiss was more intense than ever before.

His tongue slid past her teeth. The movements were both delicate and relentless.

Rachel’s mouth began to ache, so she gave his tongue a gentle bite.

Tyler froze for a moment before nipping her lip and letting go. Under the warm glow of the bedside lamp, his eyes seemed to glimmer. Drawing out his words, he said, “Yeah, it is pretty good.”

He chuckled and added, “I think I could use another taste.”

Rachel muttered, “How could you possibly tell that way…”

Silence fell between them for a moment.

Tyler pulled her into his arms, lowered his gaze, and brushed his thumb across the corner of her lips. It was just enough pressure to make her wonder if it would hurt, though he was careful not to.

“I feel like I can’t relax unless I see you every day.”

Rachel remained silent.

“Even not seeing you for a day feels unbearable.”

He rubbed her lips red and kissed her again.

Rachel felt dizzy from his kisses. “Tyler, when have we ever gone a whole day without seeing each other? We see each other every day.”

“Yeah, but it still doesn’t feel like enough."

Tyler patted her head again and again like she was a child.

Rachel felt uncomfortable all over. Tilting her head back, she gave him a strange look.

“Why do I feel like you’re acting completely out of character all of a sudden? What’s gotten into you?”
