CHAPTER 101

KIERAN 

I watched as Edwina drifted off to sleep, my hands stroking her hair gently.

This magnificent woman. She made me feel things so intensely that sometimes I could not help but wonder if I deserved her. 

But such thoughts should not be entertained. Edwina would get mad at me for even daring to think she deserved better, and frankly, I would not have any woman but her. 

So yeah, she was utterly, completely mine. As I am hers. 

Her body was warm against mine, and I savoured the closeness. The darkness was comforting as it wrapped around me, and a sigh of contentment escaped through my lips.

The serenity of the moment was broken by the sudden sound of my phone ringing. The sound startled me, and it took me a few seconds to ward of the disconcerting feeling.

It was Charlotte. I groaned. Standing up, I grabbed the ringing phone and gently padded away from the bedroom.
