“Can I kiss you?” The words caught Beautiful off guard. She’d denied him her hand at the top of the stairs. But his hands—strong, careful—still lingered in her memory. She wanted him to kiss her. She’d never met anyone like him.
But… she’d made herself a promise. She would only kiss one man—the man she loved. She’d only say I love you to that man. Once she said it, she could never say it to anyone else. She’d never betray her husband like that.
It really was a marvelous day—maybe even the best of her life. But it was only the first. Much too early to say.
She’d promised to only kiss one man. But…. She offered Seeker her cheek. If he’d kissed other girls, that was his business. A tingle bloomed where his lips touched her skin.
“I’ll miss you,” he teased.
“No, you won’t. I’m going to visit you in your dreams.”
And the dumb boy actually believed her.
