I shot him a lazy sideways look. “Maybe you’re in love with the person you imagine me to be, not who I really am now.”
Nathan’s lips thinned into a line as he shook his head, letting out a quiet, almost self–mocking laugh.
I continued, “You’re just chasing after my shadow. But in reality, I’ve been married, had a kid, and now I’m divorced. My career’s only just getting off the ground, and you’re already a powerhouse. Why would someone like you still be holding out for someone like me?”
“Stop it,” Nathan said, setting his glass down on the table and pulling me into a tight embrace from behind. “Nobody’s perfect. Maybe I’m not any better than you. The way you are now is exactly what I love most about you.”
As he spoke, his lips pressed softly against the back of my neck, leaving gentle, lingering kisses. “Victoria, when you donated money to me back then, I already knew you were married. They called you Mrs. Murphy when they introduced you.”
I froze, caught completely off guard.
Nathan’s voice was low and rough as he went on, “I was obsessed with a married woman. I’m the one who’s twisted, not you. It’s not that you’re not enough–it’s me, I’m the one who’s lost in this obsession.”
Listening to his words, all the thoughts and worries swirling in my mind just faded away.
Maybe Nathan was even more obsessed with me than I’d ever imagined.
He gently turned me to face him, his gaze lowered and intense. When his long fingers cupped my face, I could feel them trembling ever so slightly.
Still stunned, I found myself caught in his kiss.
And once that kiss started, there was no stopping it.
