Chapter 12: Under a Spell?

Naomi POV

Cyran’s question took her by surprise. Especially the sincerity of it. And how did he know what she was thinking?

She’d wondered about the kiss. Why flaunt their relationship in front of everyone?

It was true, wolf shifters weren’t humans and were physically affectionate in public and open about sex, although some shifters were more casual about it than others. But given that her parents had told them both repeatedly to stay away from each other, why rub their noses in what so obviously disgusted them?

“Why did I tempt you or let you tempt me or why did we allow ourselves to tempt each other?”

He growled. “You were hurt because I had the same questions.”

“And I’m thinking that you were wise.”

He scowled, prowling around his room. So much had happened to them since she’d awakened him this morning. She felt close to him, and yet at times, it was as if they stood on opposite sides of a raging river with no way to get across.
