Alexander's POV
He felt his heart pounding, his breath hitching as her words washed over him. He leaned in, his lips gently capturing hers. The world seemed to fade away, leaving only the sensation of their lips together, tender yet filled with unspoken passion. She melted into him, her arms wrapping around his neck as she kissed him back, both of them savoring the sweetness of this long-awaited moment.
After what seemed like hours but was really just seconds, they pulled apart, and Alexander placed his forehead on hers. Closing his eyes gently and savoring the moment that just was. He didn't believe this would ever happen, and he most definitely never thought he'd say these things he said to her to someone. At some point he truly did think he'd never love, but Stephanie came into his life and turned everything upside down, but in a good way, and he doesn't think he's ever going to change a single thing.
