章 91: Have You Been Honest With Me?

Jules' pov

       Blaze was leaning against the headrest of the bed, and he had a brow arched as he regarded me silently. 

"I… I am." I responded after a few moments, hating how my words stuttered a little and how my heartbeat was racing again.

He remained silent and as the seconds stretched out between us, so did my heartbeat accelerate even more. I felt uneasy and nervous as I stared down at my fingers.

As I bit on my bottom lip and glanced back at him, he motioned me over with a come hither motion and I crawled forward, hesitating a little before gingerly sliding across his laps. 

His large hands settled on my hips, tugging me forward till our chest was pressed together. I let out a squeak, breath hitching in my throat and eyes widening as I tentatively wrapped my arms around his shoulders and rested my head against his shoulder, leaning into him even more.
