Chapter 34

• Genna's POV
• I lay on my back staring at the dark ceiling long after I came back from the kitchen. My mouth still carried Leonardo’s taste, my skin still remembered his hands, my body still felt warm where he pressed against me. I kept going over every moment he had been kind since the first night.
• He found me in the rain, gave me a job, let me stay close to Denise, kissed me like I was more than the nanny, looked at me like I mattered. The way he held me tonight felt real, the way he stopped when I was not ready felt careful. Yet doubt kept crawling in.
