Eloise’s POV:His lips crashed against mine making me freeze, yet he deepens the kiss and I almost give in to it before everything within me screams that this is wrong and I come to my senses, shoving him away.“Dex!” I wipe my mouth with the back of my hand, and when I glance up to look at him, he looked hurt.“Do I repulse you that much?” he asks, taking a step forward while I take a step back.“What? No, Dex, of course not,” I pause, knowing I doubted that to be true. My entire body is shaking, and for the first time it feels as if looking at a stranger.He stops, and tilts his head. I could feel his aura pressing down on me like a dark cloud, and the wind was brewing against me.“Then why are you moving away?” he asks, and I look down to realize I have put a considerable gap between us.With a sigh, I move my gaze back to him.“Look, Dex, I appreciate everything you have done for us, truly,” I say sincerely, knowing I would not be where I am if it weren’t for him.I shake my head.
