As Alexander and | stared at each other, an electric current passed between us. The intense expression in his
dark eyes made my legs shake.

Alexander cupped my face with his warm hands, closed his eyes, and leaned down to kiss me.
Every thought flew out of my head as | allowed my eyes to flutter close. All | could think about was having his
soft yet strong lips back on mine. But just before his mouth could meet mine, | cto my senses. It was like a
