His lips wrapped around mine, his hands holding my face in place. For a moment, I couldn't even respond. Instead, my hands gripped the corners of his open jacket. My eyes closed as he pressed his lips harder against mine. The way his lips moved over my mouth made my knees weak. But it wasn't long before I started to pull away once I realized what we were doing.
"Troy," I said as I pushed him gently. Once he noticed my struggle, he let go. "What are you doing?" I asked, trying to steady my breathing. He just stared at my face silently before snapping out of it and looking around.
"What was that?" I demanded. "You can't just kiss me and act like nothing happened. This is a huge deal, I have two fated mates, and you are my ex-best friend." I tightened my voice. "I need to know why you did that."
"Don't you already know?" He finally looked at me and snapped, his voice loud as hell. I had to motion for him to lower his voice before anyone else heard us.
