章節 21: The Next Morning

Sunshine streamed in through the window the next morning, alerting Lacey to the start of a new day. Then her eyes popped open as the events of the night before came rushing into her head. Julien had actually been nice to her and had treated her with respect. And then, there was the kiss….

As she closed her eyes, the events of the night before ran through her mind. Brock pinning her against the wall, Julien saving her, and then their lovely meal and evening together.

Then she remembered him walking her to her door and then giving her the best kiss of her life. He was a respectable man, after all. She wondered if his respectful treatment of her would last.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Someone was knocking on her door. She slowly slid out of bed and peered through the door. Julien was standing on the other side.

"Morning." One corner of his lips curled into a smile.

“Morning.”

Then he took her hands and lightly touched his lips to hers, awakening her wolf.
