He pulls me tighter against him, even though we’re already touching. “Be fucking smart. Stay with your group. Don’t go anywhere alone.” He leans down, his face inches from mine. “Promise me, Butterfly.”
An overwhelming sense of comfort fills me, his concern acting as a balm for all my worries. “I promise, Grizzly Bear.”
He narrows his eyes. “Such a brat.”
Then his mouth is on mine. Claiming mine. Invading mine.
I grip his sides. His T-shirt warm from his body. His hard muscles flexing beneath the fabric.
He pulls back.
“Hans.” I can’t stop myself from pushing up on my tiptoes.
His hold on my straps shifts, and he’s helping me stretch up to reach him.
My tongue brushes over his lips, and he parts them.
This time it’s me. I’m the one claiming him. I’m the one wrapping my arms around his back. I’m the one tasting him.
A car horn honks farther down the lane, forcing us to break the kiss.
“I should go,” I whisper.
Hans uses his hold of me to set me back a step. “Remember your promise.”
He drops his hands from my shoulders and, after reaching for my suitcase, pulls out the telescoping handle for me.
I grip the handle tighter than necessary. “Bye, Hans.”
“Behave yourself, Girl.”
CHAPTER50
Hans
I flexmy jaw as I watch Cassandra walk through the glass doors into the airport.
I want so badly to grab her and haul her back into my truck. But I don’t do that. Instead, I climb behind the wheel.
Cassandra has already disappeared out of view when I merge into the lanes of slowly moving cars leaving after dropping their passengers off.
I follow the traffic out of the departures area.
I keep my speed steady with everyone else.
I stay in the far lane as we all head toward the airport exit.
I flip on my blinker.
I follow the sign directing traffic that wants toreturn to terminal.
I follow the looping road until I join the cars heading into the airport again.
But instead of taking the lane for departures, I follow the signs for parking.
The ramps are crowded, but I find a spot between two other pickup trucks.
After turning the engine off, I unbuckle, then twist around and press a hidden button behind my seat.
