After her brother departed, Selena wasted no time in seeking out Julian. The estate's corridors echoed with her swift steps as she navigated toward his quarters.
When she arrived at his chamber door she lifted her hand to knock but the door suddenly opened before she could.
Julian, on the verge of leaving, almost collided with her.
"Going somewhere?" she inquired, arching a brow and sporting a teasing smirk.
"I was just about to leave," Julian replied, his gaze fixed on hers.
"Well, change of plans," Selena purred, her voice carrying a raspy, sensual undertone as she seized him by the neck, initiating a passionate and hungry kiss.
Unable to contain her longing, she had missed him immensely, and the charade of pretending nothing existed between them when her brother was around became unbearable.
Julian gently stopped her. "Dorian??"
