Linsey's already uneasy expression froze, her body stiffening even more.

The memory of their closeness in the study resurfaced instantly, and a fresh wave of embarrassment swept through her.

She hesitated, then blurted out, stubbornly, "W-what? Of course I've kissed others before."

Collin studied her flushed, delicate face, his sharp gaze catching the way she faltered. A knowing smirk tugged at his lips.

She was lying, and not very well.

After a brief pause, his voice took on a meaningful lilt. "I've never been in a relationship before. That was my first time kissing a woman, and now my first kiss is gone-just like that. What a tragedy." His sigh was deliberate, his tone almost teasing. "So tell me, how do you plan to make it up to me?"

Linsey's eyes widened, her lips parting slightly as she scrambled for words. She knew Collin had never been with anyone before-never dated, never kissed.

But they hadn't even kissed due to his subordinate's interruption.

And what did he mean by making it up to him? If they had kissed, then it would be her first kiss, too!

So why did he make it sound like his first kiss was more precious than hers?

Her thoughts spiraled, but before she could untangle them, Collin suddenly leaned in, his lips brushing against the shell of her ear. His voice dropped to a near whisper.

"That wasn't much of a kiss, just the lightest touch. It hardly counts. So tell me..." His breath fanned against her skin.

"Should we try again?"
