“I just can’t believe that man is my biological father. I’m nothing like him!”
“I know you’re not.”
“I don’t even look like him!”
“Thank God for that.”
He made me smile and laugh, all amidst my pathetic moment of self-pity. The fact that I was genetically related to Rob made me want to vomit.
“I wish I was a test tube baby with a question mark sperm donor.”
“I know how much you hate him,” Noah said.
“Hate doesn’t even come close to describing the ways I despise that man. I can’t believe my mother hid this from you… from me.”
I felt so angry knowing my mother had cheated on Noah. I didn’t care if they had broken up for a day or not. Maybe I was a fool for believing that humans could be loyal to one another.
“I can’t believe she had cheated on you withhim.”
“It doesn’t matter anymore, beautiful.” Noah squeezed my hand. “It’s in the past.”
“How do you feel about all this?”
“Relieved.”
“Was I that bad of a daughter to you?”
“Oh, yes. You certainly were, young lady,” Noah teased in a playful tone of voice. “I felt like the world’s most perverted father for almost a year, questioning my morals everyday thanks to you. I’m surprised I didn’t kill myself. Maybe I am just that selfish.”
My tears flowed as I laughed and found comfort in his presence. He was right. The truth about my paternity was an immense relief—but it also made me sad. What if our bond would never be the same? What if he would leave me? There would be no way to stay connected to him anymore, now that our blood ties were severed. I just wanted to get inside his headand dissect it without actually having to ask him to reveal his detailed thoughts.
“You know that if I could kiss you right now, I would.”
I hadn’t said it. As usual, Noah was being his typical sexy self: charming to a fault.
“What’s holding you back?” I asked.
“Several things.”
“Like?”
“Like the fact that I haven’t kissed you in what feels like forever. Do you really think I’d be able to pull back so easily? We both know what happens when we… you know. Someone might walk in, and then we’re busted.”
I knew exactly what would happen when our lips collided. The idea of kissing this man made my heart palpitate. The feeling was always so intense; he left me wanting more. I had contracted the “Noah Hunter Kiss Curse.” Any woman who is lucky enough to kiss this man will never be the same. Locking lips with another contender would only result in extreme disenchantment. Kissing Noah was like breathing his soul. It was beyond euphoric and had changed me inside.
Everything seemed to be in perfect alignment for once (where he and I were concerned), but I wasn’t happy at all about Rob being my biological father.
“This changes things for us, doesn’t it, Noah?”
He nodded, smiling faintly.
“All of this seems so unreal,” I expressed. “I can’t explain it.”
“I know the feeling.” He kissed my hand, looking deeply into my eyes.
“Now I know why you don’t talk about your mother.”
“I’m sorry you had to hear all that earlier.”
