His somber voice draws my gaze back to his eyes. “I hate that you waited so long, Kae.”

“It’s okay.”

“No.” He caresses my jaw. “It’s not. And for that…” He drops a kiss on my neck. “I’m going to make it up to you.” Another kiss on my chest. My toes curl when his lips brush my sweaty skin. “For the rest of my life.” Lower. “Until.” Lower. “We’re even.”

There.

The heat flushes through my skin. The onslaught begins.

Slowly at first. Then harder.

I scream. The kind of high, loud, frightening sound that would draw concern and investigation.

Kastle doesn’t stop.

Wicked man.

Dangerous man.

He’s persistent. And focused.

I’m buzzing from feelings that threaten to tear me apart in the most painful and dark and beautiful way. He’s on top of me again. In a blink. In a heartbeat.

There’s no end to him.

To me.

My eyes roll back.

He kisses me. Whispers over my skin. Waits until I’m relaxed.

And then again.

I gasp. From the force of it. From the many different ways that electricity can hurtle through a body and burn the skin.

He instructs me to open my eyes and every part of me responds to the command. My hands. My legs. My mouth. My mind. Like a flower in full bloom, reaching for the sun until she finds the source of her warmth.

Body weightless. Hands on soft and wet places.

He grasps me. He takes me. He absorbs me.

I find more than I can handle. I plummet into him. I crash. I crumple. I disappear into oblivion.

Kastle.

My best friend.

My life line.

My compass.

The moment he met me sitting outside the school steps, tears streaming down my face and dark thoughts in my head, I found my lighthouse. I found the courage I needed to fight. To make it. To stay alive.

No. He has nothing to be sorry for.

I let him know in the quiet. In the meeting of tongues and hips and hearts. Where fingers intertwine and limbs tangle.

I let him know in the morning. Body falling over his. Lips everywhere. Every inch. He groans before he’s fully conscious. He groans when he’s awake.
