Plus, we need their help to find my colleagues, not to mention wrap up this case so we can have our shot at forever.” Shot at forever? Yeah, I said that, and his eyes narrowed on my mouth the moment those words dropped. Drawing his face back to mine, feeling his lips brush across my cheek in the process, I met his gaze as he rasped, “I’m too damn tense to be this close to you, because I want that shot now.”
