His fingers tucked a stray curl behind my ear. My heart raced as I met his warm eyes. Warmth washed through me as his fingers trailed down my neck. I missed him like this, close and looking at me like I was everything he wanted. His eyes went to my lips. Not thinking, I leaned down and kissed him.

Zeke’s eyes were soft as he reached up, held my chin in his fingers and ran his thumb along my bottom lip. “I’ve missed you, Baby.” I smiled. “I’ve missed you too, Tough Guy.” His eyes were full of promise as someone knocked on the door. “We’ll talk later.”
