Chapter 68

It felt so tantalizing that I was quivering between my legs. But there was Tony. I wanted to make something with Tony.

Alexis' eyes rose to meet mine. He spoke with his lips still against my wrist. "I know what you will not speak with your mouth."

I swallowed. "What do you think you know?"

"I know that you're in love with three men."

"In love?" I pulled my hands out of his grasp. "I think that's an overstatement."

"And I know that three men are in love with you."

My heart skipped a beat. "Three," I whispered, because I knew of Tony's and Paul's feelings toward me. "Not two?"

"Three," he responded while leaning back on his haunches to look at me.

Alexis was in love with me? I could barely believe it. "Was it the last link? Because I really didn't think it was wise."

He shook his head. "At the Council meeting when I healed your wound and you reacted with nothing more than desire, no fear, no hidden agenda, I loved you at that very moment."
