Chapter 46 Lies And Broken Hearts

• The sweet taste of Joseph’s kiss made Maya close her eyes and wish that moment would never end. For brief seconds, she forgot how much that man had hurt her heart when he lied to her just to seek revenge. At that moment alone, she loved him deeply.
• His hands, which enveloped her slight frame, held her so tightly she feared he was afraid she might slip away a second time. Joseph’s body became rigid, and he shuddered.
• They quickly broke contact, but Maya kept her eyes closed until she heard murmurs around her. When she opened them, she found Joseph standing in front of her, avoiding her gaze at all costs.
