CHAPTER 48

KADEN’S P.O.V

I waited with bated breath for her to push me away. Her lips were as soft and pillowy as always and I could have gotten lost in them. I savored the taste like it was my last because I knew she would push me away. When she lifted her arms, I was prepared to feel them but to my shock, she placed them tentatively on my shoulders as if she was unsure of whether she should pull me closer or push me away.

I didn’t want to give her the chance to over think. I grabbed her waist and pulled her flush against me. Her hands wrapped around my collar as a gasp left her lips and I used the opportunity to slip my tongue into her mouth. She kissed me back albeit slowly as if she were still indecisive. I poured everything I had into the kiss. I wanted her to know how I felt about her and that I was sorry for what happened with Lucy. I had never been good with my words so I showed her with the kiss.
