CHAPTER 6

  My cabin was peaceful. Elijah was happy with herself. On the other hand, because I?couldn't pull my palm away from her, I was forced to lie down next to her.

  Eli, you appear to be an unexpected meteor that has entered my life. If I didn't hold back, everything would change in an instant. If I take one wrong step, I will break my promise to my father. I want to sleep so I don't notice the passage of time. I want to be numb so I don't remember you're right next to me, within reach, as delectable to own as you are to behold. I was surprised.

  But it's a waste of time; I'd like to use this opportunity to stare at you, to imprint your shape in my mind. I don't want to squander this opportunity to freely hug you. And, in a heartfelt whisper, one of my arms spontaneously twisted around Elijah's waist.
