The Luna’s Choice by Kat Silver

Chapter 46: Kingston

I watched Ayla walk away through the trees. It must have been a good day. Her mood was happy and playful and her energy was intoxicating. I followed her through the woods until we came to the shore of the lake. She was heading

toward a small dock down the way.

“What are you doing?” I asked as we walked onto the wooden dock.

“It’s just so nice out. I figured the water would be nice.” She sat down near the edge and started unfastening the straps of

I shook my head with a smile and sat down next to her. I removed my shoes, rolled up my pants like she had, and hung my legs over the side. I threw my arm around her and pulled her against me, pressing my lips to her hair.

“I’m glad you had a good day,” I whispered.

“I hope yours was good, too,” she said.

“It wasn’t bad,” I replied, burying my face in her hair. Being out here in the woods with her had Lennix itching to be let loose. “I missed you.”

I tipped her chin up, pressing my lips to hers. As much as I wanted to keep going, there was something I wanted to talk to her about. And seeing she was in such a good mood, this would have been the best time.
