His lips pucker in an exaggerated, sexy pout, forcing a giggle out of me despite my attempts to restrain the degrading sound.

My arms slide around his neck as his lips press against mine. His breath shouldn't taste this good after just waking up. I'm starting to worry I've already fallen harder for him than I should.

"I won't be long, and then we can head to my place," he murmurs while pulling back.

Remembering Frankie and Thad pretty much forbid me to leave, I grimace.

"I should probably stay here in case one of the guys shows up to-"

"Absolutely not," he murmurs dismissively in interruption while walking away.

I tilt my head, admiring the nakedness of his body from behind as she struts into my bathroom.

Following him, I grumble, "No offense, but I'd like to steer clear of Amy as well."

At least that's not a lie.

He turns the water on, and I hop up on the sink as he tests it to see how long it will take to heat up. He shakes his hand to dry it on his way back to me.

"Amy is simply a roommate. Don't start this nonsense again. You're coming with me. I'll change, and we'll go out to eat. We can do whatever you want to all day."

I smirk, genius striking, and then I murmur, "Then we'll skip going to your place

, stay here, and order in."

His eyes swirl with scandalous thoughts as a devilish grin plays on his lips, but then he frowns.

“As much as I would love that - and I would love that - I want to take you out. We've yet to have a real date, and I… I'm ready for this to feel like something more."

My coffee cup finds a place to rest behind me as he kisses me in a completely different way. For the first time, it's not a kiss full of passion, desire, and unkempt carnal need. It's something so much more, a depth I can't fully understand so soon.

His forehead rests against mine as he withdraws from the kiss, and against all of Frankie's demanded rules, I murmur, "Okay."

He smiles triumphantly, and then he steps away to head into the shower. Watching his body drenching under the cascading shower through the transparent curtain sends chills through my body, and the lustful devil inside commands my attention.

Without thinking, worrying about tomorrow, or even worrying about the next hour, I drop my clothes to the ground and follow him in, surprising him.

My eyes fall upon his hard body, and a sinful smirk plays on my lips as I take him in. His wet arms wrap around me, pulling me under the rainfall with him, and our lips become as entangled as our bodies.

The gathering awkward tension between Amy and me is only mounting the longer I sit here in the den, while Kane speaks with Deke and Zee. Sierra keeps coming up with short bursts of conversation, but neither Amy nor I care to speak for longer than necessary.

Hurry the hell up, Kane.

I hear the oblivious boys laughing about something mundane as the three of us sit quietly. Sierra shifts uncomfortably as she struggles to find a new topic.

"So, the moon is crazy bright tonight," she murmurs, her eyes glancing through the window.

Great. The brighter the moon, the stronger the vamps.

Although it's a small sliver of a moon, it is bright.

"Yeah," I murmur softly, feeling the uneasiness of the reality they don't know exists.

"Sure is," Amy mumbles while flipping another page on the book she's merely pretending to read.

"Well I'm glad you're back. It's nice to see Kane doing more than obsessing about finding you," Deke chirps as the three boys join our tense room.

Finally.
