Cara’s hand slowly dropped back to her side, her chest heaving as she stared at me in disbelief. The wall she had built around herself was still there, but I had finally cracked it open, leaving her breathless and entirely unable to deny the fire still lingering between us. Without waiting for her to recover or reply, I shifted the car back into drive and pressed down on the gas, steering us back onto the road toward the house.

However, that’s not even the problem.” Adam rubbed his temples, struggling to comprehend the situation. “This is disastrous,” He muttered. “It could lead to numerous complications.
