Chapter 10: A Stolen Kiss

​Scarlett’s POV

​This was it.

My very first kiss.

​As a young girl, before my world was destroyed, I used to dream about this. I used to imagine Liam—or one of his brothers—leaning down to kiss me. I had kept that dream hidden like a precious secret.

It felt right.

And yet it felt terribly, horribly wrong.

​He let out a low sound against my lips, his hands tightening around me as he pulled me closer. There was nothing gentle about the kiss. It was demanding, possessive—like he expected me to surrender.
