My heart raced as I locked eyes with Killian.
There was something wild and fierce about him that both thrilled and terrified me. Everything around us blurred into the background, leaving only the electric energy that crackled between us.
"Killian…" I managed to whisper, but my voice got swallowed by the intensity of the moment as he captured my lips again. His kiss was intoxicating, a perfect blend of longing and tenderness that set my skin ablaze, pulling me closer into his world.
I felt weightless, breathless, entirely at his mercy and under his spell.
As he kissed me deeper, my mind went blank. It emptied of everything except him—his warmth, the sweet taste of his breath mingling with mine. The towering shelves of books surrounding us faded away, along with the distant noises of the bustling castle.
