MEGAN'S POV It feels like fire. That’s the only way I can describe it, the way Xarion’s lips crash against mine, warm and desperate, setting my body ablaze.

I almost lean closer. But then reality slams back in. Damn it, no. No. I can’t let this happen. With a sharp gasp, I shove hard at his chest, my palms shaking. His lips leave mine and cold air rushes between us. My heart pounds against my ribs so violently I can hear it in my ears. “What is wrong with you?” I yell, my voice trembling with anger. “Megan, please,” Xarion’s voice cracks, his tone low and pleading. His eyes search mine like he’s drown
