“Were you waiting for me?” I ask before I can stop myself. The thought just occurred to me. Callahan’s lip turns up in the cockiest of smirks. “Yes.” One word. So simple, yet for some reason, it sends a shiver down my spine. “Why?” The night feels way too quiet as my question lingers in the space between us. Can he hear my racing heart? I blame it on the fact I’m still recovering from him taking me by surprise in the dark. My heart definitely doesn’t beat erratically because I’m standing alone in the dark with Callahan Hastings.
