Her voice was frosty, her demeanor distant as she responded, "We've been divorced for four years. My current relationships are no longer your concern, are they?" Linsey reflected on the fact that Collin had just spent 2.7 billion on the Star of the Desert for Haven, clearly indicating where his affections lay.

As these thoughts ran through her mind, her eyes glowed with the threat of tears, yet she sternly repressed them.
She refused to let Collin affect her any longer and was determined to do everything she could to move on from him.

She maintained her poise, determined not to give herself away. "I'm with Gorman now. Does that answer your question?" Collin's face hardened, his eyebrows drawing together as a cold realization washed over him.
Linsey, sensing his doubt, added more forcefully, "I left Grester with Gorman four years ago. Since then, I've been abroad with him..." Before she could finish her sentence, the air between them shifted tically.
Collin's lips crashed against hers in a kiss full of desperate longing, cutting off her words and overwhelming her senses.

Collin groaned through clenched teeth, his hold finally easing.
Taking advantage of his brief moment of weakness, Linsey pushed him back forcefully.
Then, without a word, she delivered a sharp slap across his face, the sound echoing sharply. Collin's head turned from the force of her slap, the sting snapping him to reality.
