Elara~
I couldn't believe my ears.
For a moment, I genuinely wondered if I had imagined it.
The kiss, I didn't hate it.
The words echoed around my head. Over and over again.
I stared at her. She stared right back. Neither of us moved.
I had spent five days trying to kill whatever I felt for her. Five days convincing myself she could never like me. That we were manager and client and nothing more.
And now she was standing there casually destroying every conclusion I had come to.
I swallowed. No, Elara. Do not fall for this again. My heart had a terrible habit of hearing exactly what it wanted to hear.
I stood frozen in place. I had never even thought she hated it. I wasn't a bad kisser that I knew but hearing her say it... like that.
"No Elara, you are falling for the same trick again" I tried to remind myself.
She had done this multiple times and there was no way in hell I'd forget an Isla saying.
'I'm really trying to look away, believe me'
