Kolton's gaze locked onto Kimi beneath him. Her familiar scent wrapped around him like a drug, her gentle breathing sending shivers through his entire being.
He studied her startled expression, feeling the warmth of her body pressed against his. Every fiber of his being ached with questions that had tormented him for years.
How could he make her understand the depth of his love? Why had she chosen to stay away? What did Kirk possess that he lacked?
The memory of his mistake years ago burned in his chest. He had accused her of betrayal when the truth was far different. Now, knowing that Kirk had been the unfaithful one, why wouldn't she return to where she belonged?
Being this close to her made walking away impossible. Every instinct screamed at him to hold her, to never let her slip through his fingers again.
Kimi blinked slowly, her hands rising to press against his chest. The gentle pressure only intensified his need for her.
