Dirty little secret

Author's note: This is from Zoe's point of view

Now that it was just the two of us, Luca was adorably insecure, concerned if I have any feelings for Ash.

It would be a lie to say that I don't feel anything for Ash, but that doesn't compare to what I feel for Luca.

I wanted to assure Luca that I will never betray him. He is my most important person and I will never do anything to jeopardize what we have.

Hurting Luca means hurting myself.

I cupped Luca's cheeks and kissed him on the lips, relishing the delicious taste of apples.

I was satisfied to feel through the mate bond that his insecurities were dissolving as we exchanged gentle kisses that were enhanced by the sparks which formed wherever we touched.

I was happily drowning in the scent of apples and only when Luca squeezed my ass, I realized that I was kind of naked because Luca's t-shirt didn't provide any protection from Luca's wandering hands.
