Excerpt from Lash by L.G. Castillo:
“Naomi, about what happened back there.” Lash took a step back and brushed a hand through his hair. “I, uh, I crossed a line that I shouldn’t have.”
“Oh.” She turned away. She
should have known better. She was just a mission for him to accomplish.
“I got carried away in the heat
of the moment.”
“Yeah, yeah. I get it.” She
waved him off.
“We’re still friends, right?”
“Yeah…friends.” She could barely
say the word. There was no expectation that they were or would ever be a couple
in the romantic sense. She admitted that she liked him and being friends was a
good thing. But why was it so painful?
Bear trotted to her, wagging her
tail, and Naomi picked her up. Bear gazed at her with sad eyes, sensing her
heartache and licked her hand.
The bed sank and Naomi felt him
behind her. She couldn’t let him see her like this, like some love-struck
teenage girl who just found out the quarterback of the football team only liked
her as a friend. She had to be strong.
“Are you crying?”
She bowed her head glad the
shadows hid her face. “No.” Good. Her voice sounded strong instead of the
driveling mess she felt like.
“Turn around.”
“No.”
“Let me see your face, Naomi.”
He moved closer to her.
“Go away.”
Bear barked, warning him to keep
his distance.
He reached around her, brushing
her arm as he patted Bear’s head. “Please.” His warm breath blew on her neck.
The tenderness in his voice tore
at her and her eyes grew wet. She took a couple of breaths, calming herself
before she spoke. “I get it. I’m a job for you, and you felt sorry for me.” She
stroked Bear’s fur. “I’ll be fine.”
She took another deep breath,
placed Bear on the floor, and took a pillow off the bed. She couldn’t stay in
the same room with him. It was too much. She liked him better when he was being
a smartass—that she could handle. She
needed to get back to the bathroom to be alone. Maybe she could sleep in there.
The bathtub didn’t look too bad in spite of the dark ring around it and the
questionable green stuff on the walls.
Lash grasped her hand and she
bit down on her lip, fighting back the strong feeling that bubbled up inside
her. She felt herself weaken as she sank back down on the bed, keeping her head
down. Don’t make me look at you. I’ll
break if I do.
Gently, he placed a hand under
her chin and lifted her face to his. His eyes swam with tenderness. She couldn’t
hold back anymore and she closed her eyes.
“My beautiful Naomi. Please don’t cry.”
Soft lips pressed against her
forehead and lingered, her breath caught at the heat of his touch. The
roughness of his chin grazed her skin as he moved to her eyelid and kissed it
and then to the other. Her chest rose and fell as his lips slid down to her
cheek, her nose, and then the other side of her face, chasing away the tears.
His nose glided along her cheek
and paused over her mouth, hovering, his frantic breath lingering with hers.
She was afraid to open her eyes. Afraid of what she’d see when she looked at
him. Then his voice, so soft, as if he was speaking from inside her mind,
whispered, “Naomi.”
She opened her eyes and her
breath hitched at the raw emotion on his face. The wall he kept around his
soul, his true self, disappeared. This was the real Lash—vulnerable, sweet and
passionate. She couldn’t deny the truth
that was sitting in front of her, tugging at her, consuming her. She loved him.
“Fight me.” His voice rasped as
a hand swept over her hair. “I shouldn’t be doing this. I don’t want to hurt
you.”
His words warred with the
longing on his face. He wanted her as much as she wanted him. Then she realized
what he was asking of her. He was an angel. He was on his way home. After
tonight, she would never see him again. The thought crushed her. In the back of
her mind, she knew there would be an end. He couldn’t be with her forever. The
end was soon, and this may be their last time together. Tonight, she’d follow
her heart, even if it meant her heart, her soul, would be left bleeding in the
end. If all they had was one night, one moment—she’d take it.
“You won’t.” She leaned in, her
mouth brushing lightly over his lips.
He quivered. “I can’t stop myself
anymore.”
