Chapter 148

• The door flew open then and a maid took two steps into the room, concern etched on her face from the racket and crashing sounds I'm sure we were making. But then the maid saw us amidst the rubble, laughing like idiots. The poor girl turned bright pink and covered her gaping mouth with one hand. And she bobbed her head before quietly exiting the room and then closing the door.
• That got Ashlyn and I laughing even harder, and after a minute she just rolled over to me and gave me the most powerful kiss I'd felt in a while. She kissed me so hard my head started spinning again and when the room settled down, I grinned in a goofy daze.
• "Oh, gawd. That was EXACTLY what I needed," Ashlyn panted.
