It was the day before classes let out, and Kane’s words from the reserve had haunted me ever since they’d left his mouth. Just as his kisses had. His touch. His sincerity. And his perception. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. Was he real? And would I ever trust him enough to let him know the truth about me? It was all so confusing. So…frightening. Why would I trust someone who was planning on leaving? Why was I setting myself up for a hurt I’d never experienced?

I stretched my legs at the Covington recreational park as I did nearly every morning of my life. This morning was cold; my breath floated out of my body in white puffs. I snugged the knit hat over my ears, did a few body twists. The air sank into the fibers of my fleece jacket and stung my skin. I shoved my hands deep into my pockets.

“You’re not starting without me, are you?”

I jumped at Kane’s voice, but it was quickly replaced by the slamming of my heart and sharp intake of my breath. He’d parked on the other side of the pond and had jogged to me. Right now, his steady gait carried his long legs and muscular frame directly to me, and he didn’t stop until his hands had cupped my face on either side, and his mouth had found mine. I couldn’t get used to his kissing; I wasn’t getting enough. His hands moved from my face, to my waist, and as his lips warmed against mine, he pulled me closer. My arms had escaped my pockets and now encircled his neck.

Almost like I knew what I was doing.

I didn’t.

He suckled my bottom lip, and the sensuality of it had adrenaline humming in my ears. When I looked up at him, into that flawless face and coffee eyes, my knees felt soft. I was glad he still had ahold of me.

“I’m pretty sure I’m going to go insane over the holidays. Are you sure you won’t come home with us to Olivia’s for Thanksgiving?” he asked. His dark brows, perfectly arched, peeped out just below the black beanie he’d pulled over his head. “You know your secrets are safe there.” He wagged those dark brows. “Endless kissing.”

A smile tugged at my mouth. “Tempting. But,” I sighed, stared away from his wise eyes before he saw something else I didn’t want him to. “I have to go home, Kane.”

For the very first time since, well, as long as I could remember, I felt compelled not to go home. It was scary, admitting that I’d rather be with Kane. We hadn’t known each other for long—we really didn’t know each other at all. Yet I couldn’t deny the attraction, the pull I felt toward him. Instinctive and raw, I felt it just as strongly as I felt my own heart beating.

Again, his temporary status, not to mention his sketchy occupation, dropped a dose of reality back in my lap. I couldn’t not go home, though.
