Fear had me in its grip, but the real heat of his lips brushing mine scorched my heart.

Edward’s kiss started gentle, then grew deeper, and for some reason, it made me irrationally angry.

I shoved him away with both hands, but his eyes were still hazy with lingering desire.

He gazed down at me from above, lips curling in amusement. “Are you mad?” he teased.

Of course I was angry. Anyone would be upset at being played with like this.

“Don’t mess with me anymore,” I said, turning my back to him, my eyes stinging with tears.

Edward sighed softly, then came over and hugged me from behind, his voice low. “Sorry, I just wanted to see if you’d get angry.”

I was startled and tried to twist out of his arms.

He chuckled quietly. “I won’t scare you again. Just don’t leave, okay?”

“Am I just a duck you’ve got by the throat?” I shot back at him, angry.

Edward let go and stepped back. “No, to me, you’re like an untouchable swan.”

I turned to face him, totally shocked.

His eyes flickered as he looked at me. “Or maybe… a dream I can never reach.”

I saw a flicker of pain in his eyes.
