breakfast
for the others,” he said with a smile.
    Okay, apparently he wasn’t mad at me anymore.
I spent most of the night lying in bed remembering his face when
Kas told him about our little adventure without them. And I felt
like crap all through it. I sat down at the table and looked at the
sandwich. It looked freaking amazing. I grabbed it and
almost stuck half of it in my mouth. Chewing, I closed my eyes and
enjoyed every molecule bursting inside my mouth.
    “Do you know how beautiful you are when you
do that?” Max’s declaration had my eyes flashing open.
    He was leaning against the counter looking at
me. I felt the blush that crept up from my neck towards my face. Oh no.
    “Even more when you blush like that,” he went
on.
    I was the color of blood now. “Don’t do
that.”
    “What? Tell you how beautiful you are?” Max
wasn’t going to back off.
    “Yes, I don’t like it.” I was suddenly on
‘flee and save yourself’ mode. I looked at the door and decided to
get the hell out of there.
    “Ompf!” I smashed right into Max. He grabbed
hold of me and didn’t let go. I struggled and even tried to bite
him but he was just too powerful. His hand grabbed my chin and he
forced me to look at him.
    “You are beautiful,” he said again.
His eyes captured mine and I couldn’t breathe.
    “No… I a…m not.” I staggered with his
hypnotic hold on me.
    He smiled a devilish smile. “You are very
beautiful. I can’t seem to keep my eyes of you,” he whispered, his
lips inches from mine. I pulled my head back, dreading his
intentions.
    “Don’t, “ I all but croaked at him.
    His eyes drifted down to my lips, and he
actually licked his own lips. Oh no, no, no. I squirmed in
his hold but just couldn’t get away.
    His lips met mine and I froze. His lips were…
soft. I wasn’t expecting that. I wasn’t expecting all of
this. He lifted his lips from mine and looked at me, shocked.
“Was this-? Have you never been kissed before?”
    “I…I” Couldn’t get a freaking word out. My
body flashed from red to pink to white. I was stunned, scared and
just plain embarrassed. Of course I have never kissed
anyone! I was too young at first, and then I was just…not what
they were looking for. Tears formed in my eyes and his filled with
concern. “Can you let me go now?” I croaked out, trying to push the
tears back before they fell.
    He didn’t let go. Instead he leaned in again
and kissed me. At first it was as soft as a feather, and then he
placed more pressure on my lips. I felt something warm again my
lips and gasped. My mouth was suddenly engulfed in sweet, delicious
heat. His tongue slightly touched mine. As the tears rolled down my
face, my body yielded to what he was doing, and became his to
control. My mouth moved with his and I dared to let my own tongue
touch his. I must have done something wrong because he pressed me
against the wall and released my lips to look at me. His eyes was
piercing into me; he looked at me, and then slowly down to my lips.
I pressed them closed and dreaded what he would do or say next.
    “Utterly beautiful,” he whispered and kissed
me again.
    Aflame, I grabbed him around the neck and
just freaking let go. It was so amazing, his scent, his taste. Ambrosia . I struggled to take breaths as we continued.
    Someone cleared their throat and we instantly
broke apart and away from each other.
    “I am just getting some juice for Lada. Don’t
mind me.” Lotan smiled as he grabbed a glass and a box of juice
from the fridge. He walked out and wiggled his eyebrow at us.
    I was utterly mortified. I looked at Max and
then at those lips that just did something amazing with mine. They
were puffy and red. My hand went to my own lips, and I could feel
mine were in the same state.
    He, of course, looked like he just won the
lottery. “Come on, eat up and then we can make some breakfast for
the others.” He smiled and went over to the stove.
    Slowly, and half in a stupor, I went back
