    "Say, how about a friendly game of Gwent later? My treat for dinner if you win," he proposed, a playful glint dancing in his own eyes as he made the offer.

At that moment, all she could imagine was being in his embrace, his strong hands gently gliding over her skin. Her gaze met his with a mischievous glint.

    Sasha arched an eyebrow, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "Upping the stakes, are we? I do have a soft spot for a fine bottle of wine. You've got yourself a deal, Witcher."
    
    Their eyes locked in a playful challenge as they embarked on their friendly match. Sasha's nimble fingers danced over the cards, her confidence evident in every graceful move. Geralt, typically a formidable opponent, found himself admiring her skill.
