Book 2 Chapter 6
Daphne’s Point of View
It had been a few days since the encounter I had with Caleb in the kitchen. I know that pushing him away hurt him emotionally, but I am just not ready to be physical again with him. It is not that I do not desire him, his very touch sends. delicious tendrils of joy throughout my
