Chapter 5

Tora’s heart was still beating wildly in her chest as she made her way up the path that would lead her back to her cabin. She was still fit enough that it couldn’t be the uphill walk that was making it go crazy, so it must have been…

…Well, obviously it was the almost-kiss.

She was sure Wyatt had been about to kiss her – and she’d wanted him to. She’d wanted it more than she’d ever wanted anything in her life. She was pretty sure if he’d hesitated even a moment longer she would have grabbed his face and pretty much swallowed him whole.

Tora let out a loud, frustrated sigh, knowing that there was no one around but the cows in the fields and the birds in the trees to hear her. She appreciated that Wyatt had a farm to run and cows to help, but why just at that exact moment…?!

Ugh. It can’t be helped. But Wyatt did say he’d see me tomorrow…

Warm anticipation filled Tora’s belly. Tomorrow seemed an age away, but she’d just have to get through it. Maybe she could finish off this amazing ice cream and read a racy book – she had enough of them on her ebook reader, that was for sure. Her friend from college, Yana, ran a book recs blog and was always sending her links to things she’d especially liked, not that Tora had really had much time to read them.

Eat some ice cream and read a sexy book – not a bad way to spend an evening, Tora told herself with a smile. And tomorrow, she’d see Wyatt again and they could pick up where they’d left off.

The sun was low over the hills by the time Tora made it back to the cabin – it was a longer walk than she’d realized, and she hoped Wyatt wouldn’t be out too late helping his friends with the cows.

Those alien hunters really were causing more trouble than they knew, she thought grumpily as she went to the kitchen to grab a spoon, before flopping down on the sofa and scooping up the slightly melted bits of chocolate ice cream from the edges of the box.

She closed her eyes and savored the taste as it spread over her tongue. This really was the creamiest, richest ice cream she’d ever tasted – she wondered if it was the sheep’s milk that made the difference, or if Wyatt’s friend was just a genius at chocolate ice cream.

Feeling decadent, she rested the ice cream box on her stomach and picked up her ebook reader, flicking through the titles she had saved. She finally found something that looked suitably racy – The Dragon’s Fae Bride – and settled in for a good, relaxing evening.
