Talk

***

Leila didn’t know how many times Hunter tried to call her from the other side of the door – but she couldn’t find the courage to face him.

It slowly dawned on her.

Hunter kissed her!

Why?

Why does he have to do that?

‘Don’t be such a hypocrite! As if you didn’t enjoy every bit of it!’ A part of her mind naughtily commented – which made her groan.

Leila let out a deep sigh.

She didn’t want to feel such confusion. However, she couldn’t ignore the fact that she was becoming a bit scared. Everything about love and relationship was just… new to her.

Damn!” She murmured under her breath – as she held her back.However, she smiled like a lunatic. Even her back and butt were aching a bit – that didn’t make her frown or feel sad.
