"I think this has been enough excitement for Miss Kenna." He places his hand on my lower back and guides me away from the two laughing on the floor. "Don't mind them. Lev doesn't lose very often so it was quite entertaining to watch." He guides me back to my bedroom. When we step inside, we stand just inside the door. His hand moves slight on my back, and I can feel myself flush. "Are you feeling alright, Kenna? You're flushed."
Rurik turns towards me and I take a step back into my bedroom door. I pull my bottom lip between my teeth as heat engulfs my body. I hear him groan and then he looks away.
"Miss. Kenna, if you would please take your lip out from between your teeth. I can't think when you do that." I turn a deeper shade of red and look down. His hands come to each side of my face and he tilts it back to look up at him. I was completely caught in his gaze.
"I'm sorry." His thumb rubs my cheek, and he looks over my face as if to memorize it. We stood there for a long time before I decided to speak up. "Rik? Are we going to move?"
"Do you need to move?" He becomes very analytical and begins to assess my body to see if I'm injured. I can't think with him so close.
"I just... Your touch makes me so warm. I can't think." I meet his eyes and they are several shades darker. Before I knew it his lips were on mine. The kiss was wanting. One of his hands tangled in my hair and the other rests at the base of my neck. I moaned into the kiss. Rurik pulled away abruptly
"Shit. I can't do this. I need to think clearly." He moves me out of the way and walks out the door leaving me alone. What the hell just happened? I went from feeling on fire to having a cold bucket of water dumped on me. What am I doing?
I have kissed 2 of my captors. 2 people who killed Weston. Oh my god. Who am I. Tears start falling down my cheeks. I'm a horrible person. These men aren't my friends. They kidnapped me and killed my boyfriend. He was going to ask me to marry him. I could be planning a wedding right now. I sink to the floor with tears flowing down my cheeks.
"What the hell did you do to Rik?" I look up and see Max. His eyes are full of concern, but his face is serious. His face hasn't been serious since I got here. It's always smiling.
"I kissed him." Tears flow down my cheeks. Max stays like a statue.
"Did he kiss you or did you kiss him?" Max's voice has a touch of curiosity. I can't help but think he is teasing me.
"He kissed me, and I kissed him back." Max bursts into laughter. I can't help but stare at him. Is he mad? Or happy?
"You got him to crack! He was so red and flustered!" Max bent down and helped me up. What is going on? "How did you do it?"
I sit on the bed. "Do what?"
"Get him to kiss you! He doesn't crack under pressure. And you get him flustered!" I look at Max. I expected him to be mad or jealous or something.
"I don't know. He makes me flustered all the time. This time he kissed me because I got all flustered." Max stands in front of me. He just sits observing me.
"Does my brother make you all hot and bothered, Kenna?" I turn red. I need to get off of this subject.
"Can I take a shower? I feel gross from boxing."
"Do you want me to be in there with you or should I call Ana?" Max smirked knowingly. I can't show how much he affects me, but I can tease him back.
"You can come in. If you touch me, I'll beat you up like I beat Lev earlier." I turn and I walk to the bathroom not waiting for his response.
"I wouldn't have it any other way."
