Liam said he wants to talk. He’s stroking my hair with one hand and his other hand is on my hip, wrapped aroundfrom behind, holdingagainst him. It doesn’t feel forced, it feels comforting, safe. My hand is on his bare chest, a chest that is very muscular. Rather than feel the repulsion that | used to feel with the prince, | want to run my hand over his muscles. | want to see if his body will shiver at my touch that way that Cyran’s does when I’m running my fingers through his fur.
“What do you want to talk about?”
