Prologue - A Coin.

Well, I don't know who I made mad, but someone or something is mad at me. This morning didn't go as planned. First, my apartment building experienced some short-circuiting last night, which caused my alarm to reset and not go off. Consequently, I had to rush to get ready for work. However, when I went to get my clothes from the dryer, I discovered burned clothes due to the circuit issue and struggled to find something decent to wear. So, I ended up missing the bus, having to run to work, and being an hour late. Unfortunately, it rained on the way to work, but I made it nevertheless.

As soon as I entered the office my boss approached me. "Miss [Redacted]! I'm so sorry! You would not believe the morning I have had. But don't worry, once I dry myself off I will start cleaning the rooms." I started but was interrupted by my boss. "I'm sorry to interrupt you but we need to talk", she glances to her side as some of the other employees whisper to each other. " Preferably in my office", her eyes returned to me. "No, it's okay. We can talk here. If my lateness was the issue, I assure you it won't happen again!", I said, a little more desperately than I hoped for. I was praying it wasn't what I thought it was. Maybe she is going to promote me, or wants me to transfer! "It's not about that. It's about our company's policy. Can you please come to my office?", she asked again. Grabbing my bag tight, I responded " No. You can tell me here". My boss lets out a sigh before saying " Fine, I regret to inform you that you are being let go". And now I'm walking home, in the rain, without a job. Dang, I sound like a telenovela. I continue my dreary way home. This rain really came out of nowhere. I reach my city's little park as it seems to be hosting an event. Horrible timing on their part. Well, it's better than being out there in the rain.

I approach a large tent and lift the flap to uncover a soft, yellow light. Lanterns sit in front of small booths. There aren't many people here even though you'd expect more to be in here avoiding the rain, too. Some people go up to the booths while others watch. The booths have a variety of food, shops, and games. There is a group of kids going from booth to booth and the youngest of the group notices me. She shuffles over to me and asks " Why are you wet?" A little girl asked. "Oh... because it started to rain. And I didn't have an umbrella," I answered. "Why didn't you bring one?" She questioned. "Um. I didn't know it was going to rain," I respond. The group of kids seems to have noticed the youngest is missing. The oldest one spots the little girl next to me. She runs up to us. Starts to drag away the child as she scolds the little one. "What did I say about wandering off? Especially when you talk to foreigners!" Okay, rude. She drags the younger one away. While the little girl with brown hair waves goodbye. I give a small wave back. I notice a gentle blue light shining briefly in the corner of my eye. I turned to my left and noticed an empty booth with a blue coin placed on it. I walked towards the booth and examined the coin that was left behind. Curiously, I peeked over the booth and realized that the booth wasn't even set up yet. I picked up the coin and noticed it had no design on it. After looking around once more, I decided to take the coin with me and started to make my way out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The rain had stopped, so I started to make my way home. I continued to explain the weird coin. But as I waited for the green light to cross the street. The light shines on the coin right to see "Make a Wish." A wish? So this might be for some wishing well at the event. Maybe I should have looked around a bit more before leaving. Hmm. What would I even wish for? Maybe a job? Nah, that's too boring! Let's put on my weeb for a moment. Okay, if I was some opening to an anime. Maybe I will be cliche and say I want to be stronger and destroy my enemies with the power of friendship! Hmm. If this is my protagonist moment, I want to be somewhat unique. Oh! I know! " I wish I could go to all my favorite fandoms! It would be cool to get to know the characters and explore their worlds!" I say as I flip my coin in the air. For a brief moment, the coin glows. Before I could catch the coin. Someone shoves me aside and grabs my purse. "Hey!" Ba Bump, Ba Bump.

Everything feels like it slowed down... I angrily try to follow the person, but soon realize my mistake when big bright lights blind my right side. My mind races a thousand thoughts at once. As I turn my head towards the light, my body moves forward. Ba Bump, Ba Bump.

I could hear the driver slam their brakes and try to swerve away from me... But it's too late... Time moved fast again as time stopped being in slow motion. And the vehicle slammed into me... Crash. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I jerk upward. I take a quick and sharp breath in and out. In and out. I attempt to even my breath. I think back to chasing the guy, the truck zooming at me, and the pain. A lot of it. Am I dead? I look all over. I might be in a cave. Everything looks rocky. Multiple tunnels are going to who knows where.

However, one of the tunnels has a faint blue glow. I stand up unsteadily and walk towards the gentle blue light. My steps are slow and shaky. At the end of the tunnel, I see an underground lake with all different types of blue crystals on the ceiling. Despite how beautiful it was, it was not what caught my eye.

It was the woman sitting on top of the lake. Which is already weird enough! She had a long blue gown with trims of gold all around it. It is so long that you can't even see her feet. She also had long dark blue hair that reminded me of waves crashing into each other. And on the top of her head is something close to a crown. It is attached to the back of her head with a circle headpiece that has two rings in it with many gems. Her dark skin is also decorated with gold. "You are here early." The woman softly spoke.

I jumped when she suddenly spoke as I wasn't expecting it. "You were supposed to help her. But I should have expected this since you humans are so flawed. I need to rework the plan for you to take her home when she comes of age." The lady stands. And turns to me. I finally get to see her face. She has the crown continue to the front of her face where it dangles. She has her eyes shut. Is she an anime character? The heck. Her lips are a dark blue. However, her eyelashes are light blue.

Dang, this woman really likes blue. "Since you have some time before you are needed, where do you want to go first?" I jumped again. Lord, I need to stop dozing off. Wait. "Huh?' I blinked slowly at her. Which she probably didn't even see.

"What do you mean? Actually, where am I? I'm dead...?" It's now just hitting me that I died. Pun not intended. "You are in the in-between. Yes, you died. Now, where do you wish to go?" She continues to speak softly and flatly. "The in-between? Like in-between death and life? Since you know, I have passed away." I am now curious about this in-between. "Yes and No. You are also in-between worlds but not. We are higher than gods, but not. We are just in-between." She whispered. "Do you wish to stay here? Or do you wish to go to another?" She continued. "To another? Do you mean another world?" "Of course. You can go to any world you wish. Just tell me its name." "Wait! Am I about to be iskaied!? OMG! I even got hit by truck-kun! And I can choose which world I can go to!?" I screamed. "Their so many to choose from! I'm having my anime/manga mommet! Wait! Can I have powers?! Or love interests?!" I exclaimed. "You can have that if you use your wish coin. And even more." She has been taking steps closer to me without me realizing it. "But only once per world. So choose wisely. If you would like, I could choose a world for you to go into."

I take a step away from her. "Wish coin?" "Yes, a wish coin. It's how you got here." She snapped her fingers. And that familiar coin appeared in her hands. "When you took my wish coin. As well as making a wish with it. You accepted my deal. Thus making you my newest wish child. And until I need you. You may have your fun in the other worlds." "A deal? What deal?!" I asked. "I am bored of this conversation. I will be sending you to a random world now. I will talk again soon." She turned away from me and started to walk back to her lake. "Hey! I'm not done asking-" Before I could finish my sentence. I see her raise her hand and snap her fingers. There is a bright glow underneath me. I feel myself falling as a bright light surrounds me. I scream as the world changes from an underground cave to a clear blue sky. Is she trying to kill me again! I continue to fall until I fall into cold water. Splash.

Heart Like a Truck: Chapter 4

⚠️trigger warnings: mention of death, alcoholism, and language

A/N: I ended up having to cut out the ending and will be putting it in chapter 5. I'm still struggling with writing but I adore this chapter and couldn't wait any longer to share with you all.

The air in this truck as the three of us was thick with suspense. Cecilia felt Jake hand on her thigh but as much as she wanted to shut out the world and take Jake dressed like a cowboy she couldn't. Her eyes kept darting to him. How he looked in that red plaid and those jeans set her core on fire. It was a look she always loved on guys but with Jake she fell in love with his soul and mind before ever seeing him. However his muscles did wonder for him in this even though everything was a size bigger because of being Casey's. Her right hand left the wheel and put it on her thigh over his hand.

She didn't want him to run because of what was bound to happen. Her heart knew they would find their piece of heaven here on these acres and he would run until it was safe. In her mind she had a feeling who was at the house but she had to come up with a lie. She was preparing herself for the worst.

"Cece, what are you thinking?" Casey voice behind her in the back seat. His voice filled with concern for the woman who's always been a sister to him. His eyes caught hers in the rearview mirror.

"What is waiting for me," she tried to hide her panic from the two guys but they both knew her too well.

As she finally pulled her truck up into the front of the house her heart sank. It was her worst fear, it was the FBI. Her and Jake's eyes met each other, she could see the fear in his blue eyes at the sight in front of them. Before opening the doors,she sighed,"follow my lead boys," taking a deep breath to regain her confidence.

Out of the SUVs was her lawyer; Jackson Carter, Eric Randall the chief of the Police and a man dressed in a suit. She looked at Jake and back to the house and watched him walk there before she opened her mouth.

"Cecilia, there has been new evidence found on the death of your parents" Jackson states.

She turned her head so face, certain she was going to have whiplash from it. She looked over the men standing in front of her. Unsure what to say, it's been eight years since the accident. Her and Casey were the ones to find them as they came home from the bar. Unable to say words she turned around but not before looking at the man next to her that had stood by her side through it all.

"Jackson, what are you talking about? It was stated to be an accident," Casey's voice full of concern. He knew this conversation was going to open a deep wound for Cece but neither of them understood. They had found the truck used to haul hay hit one of the apple trees they had on the farm.

"You see it wasn't an accident. Someone tampered with the vehicle. Someone who was on the farm then and still is now. He is always wanted for other crimes from before he started here."

Looking down at the ground and digging her feet in. Besides Casey there was only one man still here from that time and she knew exactly who. "That lying piece of fucking shit," she mumbled under her breath. The anger rose inside of her. She and her father had trusted this man. "I'll take you to him," her voice dark.

"Cece, let me. You go calm down otherwise you will end up in no better spot. Remember that man in that house" his hazel eyes looking at the house then back at her. "He needs you to stick around." Putting his hand out for her keys.

"NO! Ryan is the reason they aren't here anymore. I want to see him arrested!" She turns toward the three men that told her this information. "I'm on my property, my only request before you read him his rights is I get to punch him."

She heard the chief chuck, "I won't stop you." Eric states. He's known her since she was just knee high before he even joined the force.

Feeling the keys in his hand, Casey knows she isn't in her right mind to drive to the bunk house. He sees the look in her face and this isn't what she expected tonight. He watches her jump in the passenger seat and sighs. Looking at the house she sent Jake too, he knows that man is watching out the window unsure of what is going on. However he gets in the truck, looking over at the hellfire sitting in the passenger seat. He knows she's going to fight the biggest guy and he won't stop her.

His knuckles are white from squeezing his fist so tight. He has no idea what's going on but he watches then all head back out to the farm. He's concern, knowing he doesn't know everything about her past he thought she was open enough. However the look Casey gave looking back at this house as Cecilia climbed into the truck passenger side his mind wandered. He walked into the dinning room where his backpack was and pulled out his laptop he had to see what he could find out about the woman who held his heart. He promised himself he never would but after watching everything unfold outside he didn't want anymore secrets. He searched her name but instantly it felt wrong and he couldn't bring himself to look. She always told him when she felt like talking she would. He knew it was his fault, he never stayed long enough for those walls of hers to break down.

She felt the rev of the truck as her blood boiling inside her. For twelve years she trusted this man. Her own father trusted him and now she wanted answers. She wasn't scared of him but more of the truth coming out and destroying everything she thought she knew. She felt her mind drift back to that night. However she shook her head, she couldn't pry open this wound while Jake was here.

After a long quiet ride Casey pulls the truck in front of the bunkhouse. It was a log cabin that was for all the guys that stayed on the ranch to work. She knew they would be in there as it was dinner time for them, and of course beer. She jumped out of the truck with it still in drive with Casey behind the wheel. She heard him sigh but she was on a mission. She heard the other two vehicles and wondered why no one was coming outside. She swung open the door to find them all around the table.

Casey leaned against the door frame, watching the fight unfold before Ryan knew what was happening Cecilia had him but his collar and throw on the floor. She might be a tiny little thing but she had a fight in her that was unbroken. She was a straight up spitfire when it came to those that hurt who she loved. This little thing was ready for any fight this man was gonna throw her way and she had the fight of a wild mustang under her shell.

"What the hell Cecelia?" Ryan yells from the floor.

Not saying a word the anger was evident on her face as her jaw was tight and she threw a punch hitting him square in the jaw. Ryan knew better than to fight back though. She wasn't one to pick a fight over anything.

She told them one punch and she listened she walked away, shaking her hand. She still was angry and needed to let off some steam. "Have at it, Eric. I don't want this piece of shit on my property ever again."

"Ryan Davis, you are under arrest for the murder of Thomas and Emma Dunn."

As Cecilia stormed out of the bunkhouse she heard Eric reading Ryan his rights. She didn't want to hear the FBI agents. She let out a sigh, she needed back to her safety in his arms.

Feeling a hand on her upper back she turned and saw Casey. She felt the tears forming under her hard shell. He pulled her in for a hug. It wasn't who she needed but he understood her pain. He had been there with her that night when they found them and through all of it.

She looked up "take me home to him. I don't feel safe driving." She walked away from him. Her head hung long with frustration, her skin felt hot to herself and she felt her strong heart breaking down.

"Cecilia Dunn! I have a few questions for you about another man we are looking for," states the agent just as she's about to get in the truck.

"I don't know who else you would be looking for. I'm not a safe haven for wanted criminals," the anger and emotions still clouding Cecilia's head.

"This is about the hacker from Duskwood…." The agent starts talking. "I haven't heard from him since the mine. I assumed he died in the fire started by Rogers but I'd like to get back to my home after everything." She turns around and gets in the truck.

She looked out the window not saying a word to Casey as he drove her back to the house. She was frustrated, she wanted to punch Ryan more. Everyone in this town knew she was a fighter when those she loved got hurt. She wanted to kick him and make him beg for his life but not in front of the Chief of Police and the FBI agent. She knew her lawyer wasn't going to stop her but that's all.

Her mind kept drifting back to that night but she refused to open that deep wound. She felt the bumps of the uneven road under the truck. Her only concern was to make sure she made it into his arms.

As he pulled up she saw Jake sitting on the swing. Before Casey even had a chance to put the truck to a full stop in front of the farmhouse Cecilia had opened her door and jumped out. She couldn't wait another second to be in his arms and a moving vehicle wasn't going to stop her.

He grabbed her as she came running up and pulled her against his body. She was burning up and he knew she was angry as hell. He looked up from her and saw Casey getting out of her truck.

"Cecilia, I will check everything he's touched tomorrow. The rest of the boys will pick up the slack and it will be like he wasn't even here. I promise," Casey's voice laced with a promise to make it all better.

She turned her head to look at him and the tears of crying into Jake's shirt was evident on her face. She was at a loss for words as the sunset, she just shook her head but held onto Jake tighter.

"Love, I made something simple for dinner. Why don't you go eat." Jake's soft voice in her ear. She shivered at it but in the best way possible.

Watching her walk inside Jake knew it was going to be a rough night but even though the FBI found his little slice of heaven here he couldn't leave her even to distract them.

"Be easy with her tonight and don't let her get to the liquor cabinet. I know she knows how to pick the lock," Casey's voice full of concern for that girl. However as he looks in the window he sees her standing in front of it. Before Jake even notices he runs in and throws Cece over his shoulder and brings her to the kitchen.

"LET ME DOWN YOU BIG GOON!" Cecilia yells hitting his back.

Casey completely ignores the request and just takes the hits on his back. This isn't the first time he's dealt with this side of her but the first time Jake is here as well. He places her down on the barstool.

Cecilia keeps looking between him and where the liquor is. After everything she just needs to feel the burn of whatever she grabbed going down her throat and into her stomach. Her eyes linger on it slightly too long and she feels a hand grabbing her chin. She sighs as she knows it's Casey. She looks into his eyes and sees the hurt and feels herself picking at her fingernails. The feeling of him being right is something she should be used to but she refuses to admit it.

Casey realizes she won't move as Jake stands in the doorway. Unsure at this point if Cecilia even told Jake about this issue. He goes into the fridge and grabs her a can of soda. Handing to her, he knows what she wants but he can't go down this road again. He leans in and whispers into her ear, "this is not the time for that. I can't watch you open that wound as well. I won't watch you fall into that again."

Standing in the doorway where Cecilia's head turns in the man that holds her heart. She's kept so many secrets from him and maybe it's time they come out.

"I got it Casey, go take care of the ranch," Jake's voiced full of concern for Cecilia. He is realizing there are some big secrets in both their life. He thinks back on the moments with her, how didn't he figure it out sooner. She's fighting the devil in alcohol form.

"I will see you guys tomorrow. Cece, I think you should tell him." Casey walks away.

Looking back at the can that still isn't open, Cecilia focuses on it. The cold metal in her hands, she felt like she could melt it with her touch so hot. She flips the tab but not enough to open it. She doesn't realize Casey left until Jake is standing in front of her with his hands on hers.

"How long?" The crack in his voice is evident he figured out what was going on just now. However, Jake wants to hear it from her.

"Eight years, I've had this drinking problem. It started after Casey and I found them." the softest sigh leaves her mouth as she plays with the tab on the can.

"Why hide this from me?" Jake very well knew the answer but he wanted to hear it from the girl in front of him.

"Because you always leave!" Cecilia's voice raises as she looks up. The tears in her eyes turn back into anger.

"Only to protect you! If they were to find me here I can't imagine what I would do if they hurt you!" Jake's voice laced with anger on her hiding this from him.

Pushing Jakes away from her, the can dropped to the hardwood floor. Cecilia stands up and turns away from him. "When are you going to fucking learn Jake! I don't need to be protected! I didn't need it with Richy or any other time! I need to know you're not going to leave when things get tough with me! For fuck sakes everyone in my life has left me besides the ones I pay!" Her voice laced with total anger and frustration, it's this morning all over again. However, this time she refuses to walk away from the fight.

Jake's jaw clenched tight at her words. Of course she needs to be protected from them, she was all he had to live for. He understood her anger but he wasn't afraid of her like Casey or the other guys, his fear inside of him was for her if something was to happen to this piece of heaven carved out in the Montana countryside.

Unsure how to put these fears so she could understand where he is coming from he picked up the can. It was a miracle this can didn't break open in the fall, much like the two of them it held on even under the pressure. Moving closer to Cecilia he knew she was a bomb that if handled wrong would go off. Was he frustrated with her for hiding this, fuck yes but he needed her around.

She felt his hand graze her arm, but she moved away. Cecilia knew she hurt him saying that but it had to have been side. She stopped herself from saying she wished never took that text because it would have been a lie. She adored and found home in him but this fight needs to happen.

Turning around she catches the look in his eyes, it's one of fear. "I guess I'll be better off alone," her voice still angry at everything that has happened.

"I'm not leaving you Cecilia! I just was raised to protect the woman I love without even batting an eye." He reached for her hand this time grabbing her so she couldn't move.

Catching his jaw clenching at trying to protect her from his world she's unsure if she can keep this going. "I protected you from them! I didn't let them ask questions on who you are. You need to stop treating me like I'm something that needs to be put on a pedestal because I'm not!"

As she goes to pull away Jake pulls her closer. His free hand goes to the back of her neck and the other one moves to her waist. "I will always protect you. I can't imagine a life without you. I meant it, there is no evading you. When I'm not with you every moment of my existence is thinking of you. Trying to figure out how to come back to you and let those masks of both of ours fall off. You are my home!"

Feeling herself pinned between him and the counter she feels stuck. She loves him just as much as he's saying he loves her but her mind is fighting all of this. She catches him staring at her eyes and while she sees fear still its truly not of her but of losing her. She pushes him away and storms into the living room again. Heading near the liquor cabinet and her knives she plays with.

"For fuck sakes Cecilia! Don't do it. Don't choose the alcohol over me!" Storming after her as he watches her every movement and sees where she is heading.

Taking a sigh she shuts out the world. Picking up one of the knives her dad had given her. It was handmade, she felt the wood grain under her fingertips and saw the family last name engraved in it, Dunn. She flips it over running her fingers along the dull blade. She saw the other engravement 'to my loving daughter, Cece'. She felt the tears she had gotten just before they passed for her birthday, it had never been used outside of this house and that's how it planned to be kept. Putting it back down, she realized her parents wouldn't have wanted her to react like this. She was supposed to be an old tree that no matter the storms never broke.

Turning around she saw Jake, she saw the anger as he thought she was going for the cabinet. "I needed to refocus, Jake," she felt her mask slide back on.

He walked closer to her, this time grabbing her waist. "No masks with me. Let those feelings out but don't hide yourself from me please."

The concern in his voice made Cecilia thankful for his hand around her waist. She grabbed the worn out flannel he still had on and pulled herself close. She looked at him up and down and the feeling in Casey cabin came back but this time with also the anger she felt in herself.

He saw her close her eyes and he knew she was trying to calm herself down but tonight he was going to do so. Crashing his lips into hers he felt her body melt. Expecting her to fight him he smiled into the kiss as he pulled her body against his leaving no space.

Feeling his grip tighten on her she fought the melt into him and every muscle in her body tense. His smile was the very thing that was making that happen. She was certain he thought he had won but she was still a loose canon. She pushed him away and bolted away from him.

She ran down the hallway, passing all the family photos from over the years and a few she added of friendships. As she turned the knob into the master bedroom she heard him coming behind her. He wasn't light on his feet in the boots but she slammed the door closed and locked it. There was a small stash noone else knew about in the closet of Jack Daniel's and tonight she planned on shutting out the world and forgetting everything.

As she found the bottle and popped the top off she heard the door unlocked and swing open. Before she even thought about it the bottle was to her mouth and she felt the burn going down. It was the only thing in this moment to numb the pain she felt inside.

Jake grabbed the bottle from her and went into the bathroom with it dumping it down the drain. Caseys words rang in his mind 'Be easy with her tonight and don't let her get to the liquor cabinet. I know she knows how to pick the lock.' He heard her crying but didn't see her. As the last drop went down the sink he tossed the bottle in the garbage and entered back into the bedroom. Finding her curled up on the floor where he had taken the bottle from her. Jake knew she was broken and afraid.

"Cecilia….." He went to say, unsure of the rest.

"No, don't you dare!" Her head lifted out of her knees and the tears streaming down her face. "You have no idea why I wanted that bottle so bad that I was willing to hide it from you!" Her voice was laced with an anger he couldn't deny.

She was right, he didn't know but Jake knew she needed to be thinking straight and right now she wasn't. Walking up to her even in this state her hazel eyes were dark as the bottom of the ocean and full of anger and tears. Kneeling in front of her his hand reached for her face. However, she batted him away.

She wasn't going to let him win tonight as much as her body was aching for him, she was also needing to forget today's events. She closed her eyes trying to steady her breathing and was once again lost in all emotions including feeling his fingertips on her lips.

"Please let's talk this through. I can't lose you to that," his voice soft for her to truly hear what he was saying and her body leaned forward with their lips crashing into each other's.

He tasted the whiskey still on her lips but the kiss was messy. Jake felt Cecilia's hand grab the flannel and pulling herself close to him until she was on her knees. Pulling away reluctantly he smirked at her as his forehead was against hers. "Don't think for one moment that kiss is going to let me let you open the liquor cabinet." Jake knew she was hoping for relief but she wasn't going to get it that way. If anything he would be that release and addiction for her.

Her sigh was evident, still full of anger as she opened her eyes. Cecilia knew he was close but looking straight into his electric blue eyes did things to her. She saw the unconditional love in them for her and she knew he could take the anger still inside her. She wished she let it out on Ryan but she couldn't. She felt her emotions melting away but still the anger burned inside of her. That wound that was sealed so tight was cut open again and the thought of losing Jake like she had lost her ex-fiance; she couldn't handle that. Her heart was very much unbreakable with others but Jake to her was her motor. He is the very thing that keeps her going when everything else fails around her.

Cupping her face, Jake could see the emotions still bottled up inside her, especially the anger. She hadn't joked back with him about the kiss and that worried him. The playful banter between them was always their way of calming the storm building but he had seen her in the middle of it this time and had to ride it out. He leaned his lips forward and kissed her deeply pulling her as close to him as possible.

His kiss brought her out of her mind and back to him, she still tasted the whiskey in her mouth and Cecilia knew he had as well but wasn't letting her go. Her fingers found their way to the buttons on Jake's shirt and started to unbutton, she needed that skin to skin contact with him. Pulling away from the kiss to take a deep breath she was struck by his eyes again with a devilish grin.

That devilish grin was the one she knew she needed to ride this storm out. The one that would eventually calm her soul when her anger was released even if it meant no sleep for the restless. As she looked between his blue eyes and his grin she felt herself lean back into this kiss. Her hand ran along his strong chest as they knelt on the floor but this kiss was full of anger of the events and things said. Her body knew what she needed from him even when her mind fought it.
