Chapter 12

Annette

Edward was a different man from the one I’d been dealing with the past few weeks. Ever since I had the flu, something shifted between us. I wasn’t even sure why he’d changed, but I was thankful. For a while, it had seemed like he was angry with me, but it was as if he’d laid the ill feelings aside and was pursuing me all over again. Granted, I didn’t remember his pursuit all those years ago, but it felt nice to be the object of his affection now.

Really nice, in fact. As in…heart pounding, stomach fluttering, nice.

Okay, it was more than just nice.

When he looked at me with those intense eyes of his, it made me want to remember the relationship we had. I wanted that so badly, but it always seemed out of reach. If only my mind would cooperate and stop blocking me from whatever it wanted to hide.

“We’ll be there in about ten minutes.” Edward squeezed my hand and motioned for me to look out the window of the plane. The sun was rising, casting pinks and yellows and blues across the sky, warming my soul, giving me hope for the day ahead.

Maybe Victor Thibeau would share his insight on what happened with my mother. I’d written in my journal that I’d been suspicious of him, but I’d never stated any evidence indicating he was at fault. If there had been evidence, I’d kept it to myself and never written it down. Hopefully, talking to him would relieve my fears and heal whatever hurts I had regarding her death, or it might even trigger a memory. Perhaps I would finally find peace and be able to go back to my life, the one I shared with Edward, the one I so desperately wanted with him.

Edward traced a finger along my jaw and leaned in, kissing me on the cheek. The air felt charged around us, electric with promises of things to come. “What are you thinking?” His mouth lingered near my ear as if he wanted a real kiss but was waiting patiently for me to take it from him.

“I can’t remember,” I said, smiling. “You just distracted me.”

“Really?” He grinned, clearly enjoying the fact that he unnerved me in the most delicious way. “How am I distracting you?”

I turned to face him, so we were only inches away from each other. “When you lean in like that, it makes me want…”

“What do you want?” His eyes flared, and I didn’t bother to respond to the question, not when I could just show him.

I pressed my lips to his and reveled in the warmth of his soft lips against my own. When I pulled back, I smiled. “Does that answer your question?”

“Yes, it does.”

He started to move in closer when Roberto, the leader of our security team, walked up and cleared his throat. “Excuse me, Sir. I’m sorry to bother you, but I would like to go over a few details with you before the plane lands at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport.
