Female Novel
Chapter 2031
They too wanted to become a man like Jasper. He was a powerful man, and none would try to evenwoo the woman he wanted, or he might just beat them up. Thanks to that, the lads were always politeto Willow. The ladies liked Jasper, but they didn’t show it. With Willow around, he would never payattention to anyone else.
This was the perfect romance, they thought. They had feelings for each other. The team membersthought Willow was here for the romance, while work was second fiddle.
Willow came back to the tent. It was a military-grade tent, so there was no need to worry about snakesor mice sneaking in. However, when Jasper came in, the tent felt a lot smaller. Willow pursed her lips,but she couldn’t hold back her excitement. Unbeknownst to Jasper, Willow’s bodyguards were outside,wide awake.
They were watching the silhouettes projected by the light of the lamp. The two had some distancebetween them, but then they noticed one of the silhouettes slowly moving toward the other, and it wasWillow herself. Because of that, the bodyguards looked away and stood sentry.
The temperature difference between day and night was a gulf. It was about ninety degrees in themorning but only about sixty at night. That night in particular was freezing. It was about fifty degrees outthere, and a lot of the team members slept in each other’s arms.
Willow had thick layers of clothes on, but even so, she still felt cold, and the chill was slithering into herclothing. “Let’s get some sleep,” she told Jasper.
“You first.” Jasper turned the lights off. He knew the people outside could see what they were doingthrough the silhouettes’ movements.
Darkness swallowed the tent, and a hint of mischief flashed in Willow’s eyes. She leaped into Jasper’sarms and quickly pushed him down.
Caught by surprise, Jasper fell down, and he hoarsely said, “Don’t do this, Willow.”
“I won’t, but only if you sleep with me,” Willow whispered.
“I’m a guy, and you’re a lass.”
“Gender means nothing in your line of work, does it? You’d stay in the same hotel room with yourpartner even if she was a woman, wouldn’t you?” Willow grumbled. She hadn’t forgotten about that atall.

“Well, what if you were forced to stay in a single room with her? How would you two sleep?” Willowcontinued to grumble.
Jasper couldn’t believe she would be hung up on this matter, and he was speechless.
“Just think of me as your partner. Don’t be shy.” Willow chuckled and slid away from his embrace. Shepulled the blanket up and covered themselves with it, then wrapped her arm around his waist and puther leg on top of his. Human pillow.
Jasper tensed up. She gets really friendly with me, doesn’t she?
“This is how I sleep. I have a big teddy bear at home too.” Willow adjusted her position a little andwhispered, “Honestly, your muscles are too hard. Bit bumpy.”
Hey, you’re using me as a pillow, and you’re complaining?
“But you feel warmer,” she praised.
“Then sleep and say nothing,” said Jasper.
“Sure, you close your eyes and sleep too.” Willow closed her eyes.
The girl was a late bloomer, so romance in the physical sense was a vague concept for her still. Sheliked Jasper a lot, but she hadn’t developed any urge to devour him just yet.
That was bad news for Jasper. Willow was millimeters away from him, and the air smelled like her.Even when his eyes were closed, Jasper could still smell her. His breathing quickened, and he almosthyperventilated.
Willow was a carefree girl, so she fell asleep quickly even when she was holding Jasper. She had beenworried about him the whole day, and now that they were safe, the tension melted away to exhaustionand she soon dozed off.
