“You were emotionally involved.”
I stared at him.
Then I burst out laughing.
Full on belly laughs.
Sten’s expression softened instantly at the sound.
Like hearing me happy physically affected him.
Dangerous.
Shit.
Why was everything about this so damn dangerous?
“You’re unbelievable,” I muttered.
“So I’ve been told.”
His tail slid slowly behind him, the dark cerulean appendage curling lazily through the air while we stood too close together in the empty corridor.
My gaze dropped automatically.
Big mistake.
Because suddenly I remembered exactly how that tail had wrapped around my waist when we kissed.
How it tightened possessively when his tongue licked into my mouth.
And heat flooded straight between my thighs.
Oh no.
Sten noticed instantly.
Of course he did.
Monster senses and all.
His glowing eyes darkened slowly while he tugged me to him, walking me backwards until I couldn’t go any further.
One massive hand braced casually against the wall beside my head.
Not trapping me.
Just close.
Close enough to make my pulse stutter.
“You’re thinking loud thoughts again, Luna.”
My mouth went dry.
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Liar.”
