Chapter 26

RILEY

“Do you think it’s possible for you to fall in love with me?” Her voice was so soft, caressing my senses, but it took a few seconds before her words sank in

Hunter growled and started pacing around my head. Nadia’s words woke him up from his slumber and now, he was urging me to confess what we felt for her.I would. But I wanted to hear what she had to say.

A smile slowly crept into my face as my heart continued to flutter.I had no idea how many times my heart soared and jumped out of my chest in the last two days that she was here. If this is not love, then I wondered what I should call these feelings.

Nadia has awoken a part of me that I didn’t know existed.

“Do you love me, Nadia?” My voice came out hoarse, as I stared at her, trying to catch her gaze.

Her eyes widened as her lips parted, something I noticed that she usually did when she was lost for words. And then she would close her mouth and slam her face into my chest, hiding how her cheeks reddened in embarrassment.

And she did exactly as I thought.I wrapped my arms around her, holding her close as our breathing slowed down, our hearts beating in perfect sync.

“Do you love me, Nadia?” I asked again.

“Will you laugh at me if I say yes?” She answered in a very low voice, her tone laced with uncertainty.

I pulled her body away from me, curling a finger under her chin before tilting it up to catch her eyes. My fucking cheeks were hurting from the smile that seemed to be permanent on my face right now.

“I would never laugh at you, never. But I want to hear it.” I told her, my gaze not leaving hers.

“It’s not fair. Why do I have to…” She scrunched up her nose and I had to cut her off.
