He tilted his head. “I see.”
Then, he angled his large body toward me, eating a big chunk of the
distance that had been separating us. The motion had been unexpected, and
my breath hitched with surprise. Hyperaware of how close he had come, I
stuttered. Suddenly not knowing what to say or if I was expected to say

Aaron’s arm reached out, the backs of his fingers gracing my temple. My
lips parted, tingles spreading down my skin.
It was him who lowered his voice then. “Always fighting me.”
I looked up at his handsome and stern face, his assessing blue eyes

throat a third time, my voice still not sounding right. “So, please, pay away.”
I paused, trying to get my body back on track. “And thanks.”
Aaron nodded, the start of a satisfied smile tugging at the corners of his
lips. “See? It wasn’t all that hard, was it?” he pointed out. His lips inched
further up, looking all smug and—
