The envelope has…
I flick my right wrist and the envelope topples into the claw like flames.
After a few seconds, the edges begin to burn.
I’m tempted to reach into the fire and save the envelope.
Cullen squeezes my hand tighter.
He knows I want to risk burning my flesh to figure out who my family is.
Then it’s too late.
The flames eat the envelope.
I look at Cullen.
I have no idea if I can trust him to protect me or not.
But I like him near me.
I like him holding my hand.
I like…
Cullen touches my cheek with his left hand.
His fingers slide to the back of my neck.
He pulls at me.
I groan and fall against him.
I nod.
Oh, fuck, this is going to happen right now, isn’t it?
Chapter 21
“I’m just as deadly, love.”
Cullen whisper those words into my ear just before his lips touch my neck.
I put my head back and look up to a starry sky.
Billions of stars overhead, watching and enjoying whatever is about to happen.
I feel like just one of those stars.
I’m lost in Cullen.
His lips touching me.
His touch commanding me.
I turn my head to the right and look into the fire.
Its bright warmth engulfs me, but not as much as Cullen’s kisses do.
