LADESSA.

I tried not to breathe so as not to draw any attention, but my heart was thudding so loudly that I felt I would collapse soon. I knew there was nothing to worry about because Kael was by my side. But then the possibility of them hurting Kael also terrified me. My hand raised, and I was about to grip his arm, but before I could touch him, my head was turned to the side, and his lips crashed into mine.

I had no idea what just happened, but the moment his lips moved and began sucking and kissing me, I just found myself turning my body to face him so I could kiss him back. Like always, whenever he kisses me, the rest of the world ceases to exist.

A soft moan escaped my throat as my arms snaked around his neck, and I pulled him closer, letting his body provide me warmth on this cold night. I would not deny that I missed him and the kisses I would get from him, so I savored the familiar way he held and caressed not just my lips but my whole being.

I was still lost in the moment when he suddenly pulled away.

I felt my face burn, and I immediately removed my arms around his neck. I was glad he wasn't looking at me. He picked up the brown bag I placed on the bench behind us before he grabbed my hand, ushering me to step inside the bus, which I didn't even notice was already in front of us.

I just followed his lead and sat on the seat he pointed to.

"I think we lost them," Kael said after he looked back. We were sitting in the middle part of the not-so-crowded bus.

"I think so."

"Are you okay?"

I nodded.

"I'm sorry about kissing you. I have no idea how to hide your face, and i I was the first thing that came to mind."

My cheeks were still burning from embarrassment. I totally forgot the danger we were in. While he was thinking of ways to get away from them, I was enjoying the kiss and thought he wanted to kiss me.
