Chapter 49 : Would You Stay?

Soren’s gaze had me paralyzed. My breath caught in my throat and warmth rose to the surface of my skin.

I wasn’t sure if it was the drinks from earlier or the power of the moon but I felt elated and a little fuzzy. The moonlight hit just right and the mood was romantic.

I bit my lower lip, looking into Soren’s deep, penetrating eyes. His face was so handsome and I got lost in his gaze.

Without thinking, I leaned a little closer to him.

Soren leaned closer to me until our arms were touching.

I gasped and my lower lip quivered.

Soren’s lips quirked up and he moved even closer. He placed his hand on my wrist and swooped down, kissing me on the lips.

My breath caught in my throat and I was frozen in place.

He moved his lips against mine and cupped the back of my head, preventing me from pulling away.

My stomach fluttered and I could have squirmed right out of my skin!

When he pulled away, Soren grinned. He took my hand and led me back into the ballroom.
