“My apologies. Callum Stewart. A pleasure to meet you.” He offered me his hand, and after a tentative pause, I took it. He’d meant for us to shake, but all I could think about were the tingles racing up and down my veins from just the touch of his warm, firm hand. I hadn’t ever felt this kind of immediate attraction to anyone else. I jerked my hand away, wondering if he’d noticed the way I had started trembling. I was supposed to be regal and instead I was shaking. Ridiculous.
