Chapter 73: Irreversibly So

Song suggestion: "Kissing You" by Des'ree

- VANESSA -

Of course I didn't plan on kissing Dominik. I planned on ignoring him all night and maybe finding a way to make him jealous. But I didn't expect him to say all of that either. 

Thank God for Kisa, because her confidence and impulsive nature is what does it. Dominik may not have confessed his love for me or confessed that he's the one Ivan is searching for, but the way he looks at me—like he's preparing to bare his soul—is breathtaking. It's all there, all of those confessions are there. 

Instead of hiding behind my anger and jealousy or even my lack of experience when it comes to guys in general, I let the wave of emotion roll over me. Before I know it, I'm tugging him toward me, my entire body alighting with the anticipation of his.
