Alexander deepened the kiss and held me close.
I couldn't help but moan against his passionate kiss. The way he pulled me to him made it feel like it was afraid to lose me, as if I could just disappear if he let go.
He was like a child clutching on to his favorite toy, and maybe that's what I was, his favorite toy. But at this point I would take it, I would take any way I could be close to Alexander.
As our lips parted Alexander cupped my face and pressed his forehead against mine.
"Do you really have to ask?" he said in a low voice.
"Why?" I asked him again, pleading to hear the answer I wanted.
"Lilith, I—" Suddenly the room was filled with sound of my phone ringing.
Of all the times someone could call.
I don't know if I was saved or not by the call, but when I looked at the screen and saw the time and who was calling I couldn't help but curse.
