Chapter 248 Compromise

• Finnian stayed sharp, eyes scanning, ears pricked. Raina had bitten him once already—no way he’d trip over the same stone twice. He didn’t think. He dipped his head and pressed his lips to her red mouth.
• The moment their lips met, a jolt like a live wire shot through both of them. This wasn’t their first kiss. Raina’s warm lips were soft and sweet, and Finnian didn’t want to stop.
• Maybe Raina had already come to like his kisses. Her heart skipped; color swept across her cheeks. Her pulse sped for no reason she could name. She forgot to fight back and let Finnian do as he pleased.
