Finally, the last notes of music faded away.
She gasped, sucking in a deep breath and shaking her head slowly, trying to clear her mind.
She needed air.
Needed to cool her head.
She bit her lip, looking up into Lyov's bright, caring eyes.
Those kind eyes.
She nearly melted into a puddle on the spot, simply looking up into his sweet, caring eyes.
Was it wrong to say that she saw such caring, loving eyes, and wanted to be absolutely railed by the person whose eyes those were?
Probably.
But it was true.
She bit her lip and forced herself to pull back, just a little bit, from Lyov's warm, strong, beautiful presence.
She swallowed hard and ran a shaky hand over her hair to try and calm the chaos raging within her mind.
He took her hand and kissed the back of it.
The contact of his warm lips against her skin sent sparks racing through her veins.
