Lina realized she was taking up Kade's precious time. He had his duties as the Commander and Prince of Ritan. Suddenly, she pulled away from his touch.
"Where are you going?" Kade sharply asked, grabbing her elbow.
Kade was worried she'd suddenly disappear from his arms. With an entire kingdom wanting her back, the possibilities were high. He was certain Teran would kidnap her.
"You're busy," Lina said.
"I'm not—"
"You are," Lina insisted.
"I'm never busy enough to not entertain you."
Kade yanked her towards him. She had come all the way to his private study. They were alone. Behind closed doors. In a sound-proof room.
"I don't want to take up your time—"
Kade captured her mouth. Her eyes grew wide, but she instantly responded. He kissed her passionately, nibbling at her bottom lip. Shakily she obliged, opening her mouth. His tongue dove into her heated entrance. Their tongues mated, and she pulled away for air.
