Chapter Twenty-One
Jonas kissed me? Why?
The whole room became quiet at the gesture. I was just as surprised as everyone else. But what surprised me more was that I enjoyed his kiss. Or I think I did.
His tender lips on mine sent sensations through my body that I thought I wouldn't feel with anyone else except Liam.
I pulled back from his touch and stepped back, almost stumbling over the gurney behind me.
Dr. Robinson thought I was reacting because I did not want to be touched and moved protectively between us.
"What do you think you're doing?" His voice was firm, and he shoved Dr. Jonas away.
"You know Emilia can't tolerate things like that. And you know we need her more than ever right now."
I wrapped my hands around myself and glanced at Jonas. He did not seem remorseful at all but had a slight smile on his face. I knew why he was smiling triumphantly.
