Excerpt from Fated Always
“Do you feel that?” he asked.
“Of course I do, Sawyer. It’s pressing into my hip.”
He laughed, he blushed, and Tala tried with all her being not to be seduced.
“Not that. Well, not just that.” He tucked his finger under her chin and raised her face until their mouths aligned.
Tala held her breath. Did he mean to kiss her? Why aren’t I backing away?
“Can’t you feel how right this is? I can feel you in every bit of me, Tee. It’s an awareness that is always with me, like the sensation of being watched but better. It’s the knowledge that we belong together. That we fit. Be honest—don’t you feel it too?”
She twisted away, but he held on. He keeps pushing me.
“What if I said I did? Then what? When it falls apart, we’ve lost more than a lover. We’ve each lost our best friend.” She touched his cheek. “I couldn’t live with that. You’re too important. Let it go.”
“Who says it’ll fall apart? Why would it? Who is your mom’s best friend? Your dad’s?” He did not wait for an answer. “Why can’t we have both too?”
She didn’t have an answer. She was too proud to admit she was too afraid to risk it. She closed her eyes against the weight of his stare and the truth reflected in it. She wouldn’t give him what he wanted. She loved him too much.
