Chapter 1029

Thaddeus's steel-blue eyes widened. He froze, completely caught off guard by her sudden, passionate kiss. For a second, his mind went blank.

He hadn't forgotten her. He remembered-they used to be lovers.

But those wild, heart-stopping memories? They barely registered now. He couldn't summon up that old love, no matter how hard he tried.
