His slender lips paused on hers for a fleeting two seconds, leaving Moira acutely aware of their soft, warm touch.
"What happens after the kiss?" His voice was deep and velvety, oddly captivating.
As his soft lips withdrew, a trace of reluctance tugged at her heart.
Moira blinked, locking eyes with Barclay's piercing gaze, and before she could stop herself, she uttered, "I still want to kiss."
Moira thought, 'My entire body went rigid. When had I become so bold? Am I losing my mind? How could I utter such words? Just stop and think.' Barclay regarded her, his dark eyes inscrutable. There was a flicker of surprise, quickly masked by his usual composure.
