CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

The next evening, Clara was eating dinner with William's family again. She was determined not to run off as she had the time before. This time, though, his mom and sister were talking nonstop about wedding ideas. They had so many ideas, Clara wouldn't have to worry about coming up with anything on her own.

She was glad that they were so excited and wanted to be a part of the process. But she knew that she had to tell William the truth sooner rather than later. She was picking at her food. Should she tell him that night or continue to wait?

"Give her some space," William said, interrupting Kathryn mid-sentence. "You're not even giving her a chance to eat her food."

Clara smiled. "They're fine. Really."

Kathryn went right back into talking about cakes. She had obviously spent a lot of time looking into weddings. Did she have someone in mind that she wanted to propose? Clara didn't think anyone said anything about her being exclusive with anyone, and she hadn't been at the dance with anyone the night before.

Before long, she and William were alone, sitting in front of a fireplace.

"I hope you're not feeling overwhelmed. My mom and sister love weddings. When we attend one, they sit and discuss every little detail. It's pretty annoying. I apologize for them."

"No need. I'm just happy to be here with you. I couldn't stop thinking about you all day." She leaned her head against his shoulder. "Mmm. You smell good."

"I do? I'm not wearing anything new."

Clara wanted to smack herself. She was smelling his love and adoration. She recovered quickly. "You always smell good. I just missed it."

He kissed her forehead and then put his finger on her chin, moving her face so that she was looking into his eyes. She loved his deep blues, looking into them was like getting lost in the ocean. They stared into each other's eyes for a few moments, before he pulled her closer, kissing her deeper. "I don't think I could ever get tired of this."

"Me neither." She kissed him again. "You don't think your parents will walk in, do you?"

"I don't think they would complain after seeing us dance last night."

She smiled. "That's true. I—"

He kissed her. She pushed him against the couch, pinning him down. She could hear his heart rate pick up and his sweet scents wrapped around her, making her want him all the more. She kissed him back with even more desire than before, keeping her sensitive ears alert to anyone coming near.

William put his hands on her face, making her skin tingle. She ran her fingers through his short, soft hair, down to his stubble. Her fingers caressed it. It was just long enough to be soft rather than rough. She moved her kisses so that she kissed around his mouth, tasting the stubble.

Clara wanted to bite down and draw blood. The excitement that they could be caught at any moment was almost too much. Her fangs were waiting for her to make a decision.
