shing with anger.
Dexter stared at her in disbelief. “Do you know what you’re saying?”
Josie couldn’t hold back her true feelings. She knew she had stepped over a line when she saw
Dexter’s piercing re.
She turned around hastily, ready to leave the room. I’ll leave now,” she muttered.

they exuded a chill that made others admire him from a distance.

he had now.
Josie felt her heart swell as she saw him up close for the first time in a long time.
Dexter locked his eyes on hers and asked, “Are you jealous?”
Josie froze for a moment, taken aback by his question. “Me? Jealous? Of who?” she stammered.
She was d that he couldn’t hear the pounding of her heart.

“You’re ming me for saving Summer.”
Josie stood frozen in ce, her heart hammering in her chest. Dexter’s words had cut through her like
a knife, exposing her deepest feelings.
“If I hadn’t brought her home, would you havee to find me?”
Dexter’s lips were cold, but they left a trail of warmth wherever they touched.
Josie’s breath caught in her throat as soon as Dexter’s lips met hers. She couldn’t think of anything
else.
He was right about Summer. If she didn’t show up at the house, Josie wouldn’t havee looking for
him.
Their lips met in a passionate kiss. Dexter started out softly, savoring the feel of her lips against his. But
as the kiss deepened, his passion grew more intense, and he bit her lips as if to express his pent-up
frustrations.

The taste of Dexter’s lips and his touch were so familiar. Josie had desired them for a long time.
The thumping in her chest grew louder, and soon tears streamed down her cheeks. Dexter stopped
when he tasted her teardrops.
“Couldn’t you be gentler?” she asked helplessly.
“You’ve been ignoring me for days, he said in a deep, hoarse voice. “Why should I be gentle with you?”
Josie was speechless.
Dexter leaned into her, lips pressed into hers as if he had longed for her kiss in that short pause.
He could tell that she had be slimmer.
As he kissed her passionately, his hands moved higher over her waist. Josie moaned in pain as he
touched
her bare skin.
Her moan almost made him lose grasp of his sanity.
Josie’s lips were rosy. With her forehead creased, she told him. “The wound hasn’t healed.”
Dexter took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He turned around and buttoned up his shirt, fully
recovered from their shared passion. His glossy eyes lost their glow and resumed their solemn state.
He never intended to take it any further. His desire simply got the better of him. He had only wanted to
calm Josie down from her sudden outbursts, but he was carried away by the heat of the moment.
