Chapter 148

Andrea loved him.

The thought resonated inside of her, the scary reality of it immobilizing her for a moment.

She loved him.

When the hell had that happened?

Andrea wanted to run, wanted to hide under the bed or in a closet, but that would mean not being near Zain. And she couldn't see that as an option. Either she had to stop loving him or get over this new need for him. She didn't like those choices.

He pulled her up against his chest, swooping down for a hot kiss, his tongue thrusting into her mouth. He tugged her hoodie off, taking her tank top with it. Since she and Crystal had vastly different bra sizes and Andrea's was pretty much disgusting, she hadn't bothered to put one on after her shower. She fought the urge to cover herself and kept her arms down by her sides.

"What's wrong?" Zain asked. "Do you want me to stop?"

She had no doubt he would stop-and then she'd die. Or want to die.
