"Is there anything I can do? Anything, I have to have you." He blurts one night at a fancy Founding Families dinner.
"That was wildly inappropriate." She accuses and he's prepared for her exit. "And exactly what I've been waiting for."
He doesn't ask again. He just leans into her lips and it was totally worth the wait.
