Then Wolf’s voice suddenly echoed from somewhere near the barn.
“Well thank God finally.”
Flick gasped softly against my mouth.
I closed my eyes.
“Wolf’s definitely dying.”
She laughed breathlessly against my lips.
And that sound?
Yeah.
I’d kill Shepherd to protect it.
68
FELICITY
Icould still feel his kiss twenty minutes later.
Actually—
everywhere.
My lips tingled.
My heart wouldn’t slow down.
And every single time Hersh looked at me across the kitchen table, heat rushed straight through me all over again.
Which would’ve been less embarrassing if Wolf and Trigger weren’t sitting there witnessing all of it.
Wolf leaned back in the chair with a smirk. “You two done pretending yet?”
Trigger nearly choked on his coffee.
I stared down into my mug immediately.
Hersh looked completely unbothered.
Which felt unfair.
Very unfair.
“What exactly are we pretending about?” he asked calmly.
Wolf barked out a laugh.
“Oh, I don’t know. Maybe the fact you look one bad dayaway from murdering somebody if they breathe near Felicity.”
Trigger pointed toward Hersh. “That part’s definitely true.”
Heat flooded my face harder.
Hersh took a slow sip of coffee without taking his eyes off me.
