right beside his shoulder, and ran a hand
through his hair. Lorcan closed his eyes,
leaning into the touch, unable to stop the deep
purr that rolled through his chest.
She made a low noise of wonder, perhaps
something more, and her fingers stroked
again.
“Say it,” she whispered, fingers stilling in
his hair.
Lorcan opened his eyes, finding her gaze.
“I love you.”
She swallowed hard, and Lorcan gritted his
teeth as he sat up fully. This close, he had
forgotten how much he towered over her.
Atop that horse, she had been a force of
nature, a defiant storm. His blanket slipped
dangerously low, but he let it lie where it
pooled in his lap.
He didn’t miss the dip of her stare. Or the
long, upward drag of her eyes along his torso.
