I was embarrassed.
No, I was mortified.
What had I done?! Why did I do that? I knew I had acted totally out of character by initiating that kiss with Lucien. Was it worth it? Yes. But still!
I touched my lips, the fond memory of Lucien's smooth skin on mine sending tingles through my body. I knew he was upstairs, doing something, probably work. It killed me to leave him, and I could feel that he disliked it too, but Cindy was hard to convince.
I traced my visible collar-bone, little indents from Lucien's nips, and love marks trailing along my skin, a reminder of what I was to come home to. My body felt electrified and excitement poured through me.
I followed Cindy quietly to the outer borders of the pack. We'd decided on walking since the mall Jasmine wanted to go to wasn't very far from the pack. Really, I had decided to walk. I was tired of just sitting and driving everywhere—my muscles wouldn’t exercise themselves.
