Chapter Seven
Zaryaâs pulse rate quickened. âAre you flirting with me again?â she asked, mesmerised by the wicked gleam in his eyes.
Taran dipped his head, his handsome face mere inches from hers. âDepends.â
âOn what?â
âIf itâs working.â
Hell, yeah, it was working, but she wasnât going to tell him. âYouâre not my type. I usually go for the tall, dark, and handsome type.â
He raised a fair eyebrow. âIâm taller than you, and you already called me handsome. That just leaves the dark part, but if you want my opinion, blonds are way more fun.â
That had to be the corniest thing sheâd ever heard. She bit the inside of her cheek. âYouâre not even that handsome.â Nope, not falling for you at all.
He chuckled as he inched closer. âShut up and kiss me.â
His mouth found hers, his kiss tentative at first, the touch of his lips lighter than a feather.
She encouraged him, deepening the kiss.
He didnât need any further persuasion as he flicked the tip of his tongue along her lips, exploring, tasting.
Zarya lifted her arms and linked her hands around the back of his neck, delighting in the soft curls tickling her fingers.
Taran cupped her cheek while his other hand curved around her waist, his warm fingers splaying on the small of her back, bringing her closer to him. Close enough to feel his hardness nudging her lower abdomen.
Passion ignited within. Heat spread between her thighs. She wanted this, wanted him. Her body craved him like no other man, and yet something held her back.
He still didnât believe.
She stepped back, her breaths rapid. âTaranâ¦â She swallowed. âI canât do this. Iâm sorry.â
âWhy not?â He took her hand, his expression full of concern. âWhatâs wrong, Zarya?â
It took everything not to cave. âI made a vow to myself a long time ago to not get involved with a merman, but⦠I think Iâm about to break my promise.â
He drew a breath in through his teeth. âYou are?â
Tears pricked at the back of her eyes as she nodded. âI know how crazy it sounds, but thereâs something special between us. We hardly know each otherââ
âIf itâs crazy,â he interrupted, âI am too.â
He stroked his thumb along her hand, the action sending goosebumps across her skin.
âI felt it the moment I met you, Zarya. Even as I almost drowned, I knew we had a connection. Something profound.â
And there it was, the reality in his words, the reason she had to be strong. Zarya squeezed her eyelids shut to stop the tears. Opening them a moment later, she looked at him. âIt doesnât matter. There can never be anything between us. You donât believe.â
The hurt in his eyes broke her heart. âIâm trying to, Zarya. Help me believe.â
She nodded, knowing full well she would do anything he asked. Be strong, Zar, be strong. âI will, but no more kissing me like that, okay?â
âWhy didnât you enjoy it?â he asked, winking.
Zarya wriggled her hand from his. âYou know I did, and so did you.â She made a point of checking out the front of his shorts, his arousal obvious.
