Her lips were soft, almost silken, and pillowy against his own. He could feel the soft tickle of her breath beneath his nose, fingers running through her hair as they breathed each other in.

Warmth blossomed in Lori’s chest, sparks igniting as Gabriel leaned in closer, his ips kissing hers softly, gently, almost as if he was afraid to break her. The smell of his cologne, his minty breath, it was dizzying, butterflies were dancing in her stomach. But warmth consumed her as she leaned into the kiss, Gabriel’s lips soft against her own. His tongue teased her gently and Lori opened up more to him, tentatively letting him play with her tongue.

Gabriel’s hand traveled down to her neck, caressing her slightly while his hand travelled to the front of her tank top. He cupped one of her breasts in his hand and Lori jerked. She broke away from him and sat upright, her cheeks burning in embarrassment. She looked away, her hair hiding her face like a dark

curtain.

‘I’m sorry.”

She apologized and she started slipping out of the bed.

Gabriel sat upright, gathering the sheets to hide his bulging erection.

“No! No it’s my fault. I was moving too fast..”

He said and she shook her head.

‘No. I shouldn’t have… I have to go.”

She said as she started rushing towards the door.

*Lori?! Lori?!”

Gabriel called after her and she hesitated and paused when she reached the door frame.

“I’ll be sleeping in my room tonight.

She said as she quietly slammed the door after her.

Gabriel groaned as he fisted the sheets.

‘Fuck.”

He had moved too fast. He has spooked her. She was probably never going to let im touch her again. He should have taken his time with her, be more gentle. But he let his emotions get the best of him.

Back in her bedroom, Lori wondered why she had freaked out in the first place. Se enjoyed it, she was enjoying her time with Gabriel, but maybe, maybe she wasn’t fully ready to go that far with him. She hoped he wasn’t upset that sh had left abruptly, but it was the only way she could sort out her thoughts. Her mind was in a mess, her head kept replaying the scene and her belly was still ridden with butterflies.

She had never felt that way, never felt that way about someone before. Not even to someone. She rarely had time to look at the boys in her school, she was quiet Not to mention she was so scrawny, Mrs Wyatt didn’t really care for them much became unwearable. That was their life.

And when Asher had come by things had gotten worse, especially with the way she saw men after that. Lori became weary of men, all men. She had sworn off men once, completely, thinking she would never be able to get into a normal relationship where she would be loved and where she could love.

Everything was changing, all that was changing. The moment she had seen Gabriel, something was different about him, she couldn’t just figure out what it

was.

And now, was she just a nanny? Or was she becoming so much more?

She crawled to her bed and buried herself under the covers. Her bed was cold, lacking the familiar warmth of Gabriel’s body. She missed him, she missed

that.

The next day, Gabriel decided he would stay home. Draco would come to him later in the day to drop reports. He went for a run as early as five am in his

wolf form. He used to do it a lot more often before, but with Lori around he couldn’t afford to raise her suspicions. But he did it that morning and he felt refreshed. More than he had ever been. Then after he went for a deep in the pool naked.
