Excerpt
In
that moment, I knew that he had me fooled. I would buy into this façade of a
reality where it didn’t matter if Monty thought we were dead when we were
actually alive. I had faith in a fairytale that we could live in a conspicuous
location inconspicuously. It was all a fantasy, but I wanted so much to believe
that we were safe, that no one would ever find us here, that Cabel and I had
escaped unseen.
But
maybe I wasn’t a complete fool. Maybe it was denial not naiveté. Maybe it was
hope in the pipe dream that our life could return to the way it once was.
Either way, I succumbed to the fake world Cabel had created. And I let myself
believe that none of it was too good to be true.
Cabel’s
fingers tangled through my hair, as his other hand slipped beneath my shirt and
trailed the length of my naked back. Clinging to him, I clasped my hands
together behind his neck and whimpered when he tugged at my bottom lip. Cabel
groaned at the sound that left my parted lips and pushed me up against the
wall.
My
hands searched his torso, rubbing and caressing his skin. His chest. His abs.
His ribs. When Cabel folded his hands through mine and then ripped the shirt
over the top of my head, I couldn’t believe that he was mine. How had I gotten
so lucky?
Cabel
placed his hands at my waist and hauled me into the bedroom, where we collapsed
on the mattress together. He stretched out beside me and cradled my face in his
hands, similar to the first time we had made love. I felt his lips against my
neck, as his fingers traveled along the sides of my arms and then my neck and
then my spine.
Right
before that pivotal moment, that felt so much like freezing fire and burning
ice, he left the softest kiss on my lips, and I knew he would be gentle. His
frosty blue eyes gazed into mine, loving, caring, trusting. Since the day I met
Cabel Jones, he had taken every part of me, but none that I hadn’t already been
willing to give. As he braided his fingers through mine and pushed the back of
my hands into the mattress, I knew that I had made my choice.
If
he was going to burn, then I would burn with him.
