Read Duality: Vol 2, Euphoria (A New Adult Paranormal Romance) Online
Authors: Elle Casey
“And then there you were, and I tried to ignore the feelings or make them go away, and it didn’t work. I was worried it was your Rainbow stuff making me feel so strongly about you.”
“But it wasn’t.” I clung to him, praying he knew that to be true.
“No, it wasn’t. It was just … it was just love. I guess that’s what I’m trying to say. I love you, Rae. I hope that doesn’t freak you out.”
The tears came rushing out of my eyes. I couldn’t have stopped them if I wanted to.
“Oh, shit. I made you cry. That can’t be good.”
He tried to pull away, but I wouldn’t let him. “No, it’s good. I’m happy.” My breath hitched.
“I’d hate to see you sad,” he said, kissing me on the mouth and wiping my tears away with the edge of the sheet.
“I love you too, Malcolm. I really do. I’ve waited for you my whole life.” I kissed him quick, desperate for him to know I meant it.
“You do? Oh my God, that’s such a relief. I was so worried you’d tell me to go away.” He kissed my neck, sucking on the skin a little and making a chill move over my body.
“Go away? Never. You’re stuck with me.” My breath was coming quicker as my pulse began to accelerate.
“I think love is a bigger deal for people like us,” he said, pulling me over to lie on top of him.
“I agree.” I knew exactly what he was saying. “I’ve always been at the far end of the spectrum of emotions. Happy, happy, happy … all the time, people around me happy.” My hair fell down over his cheeks. He reached up with one finger and touched one of my dimples.
“And I was at the other. Sad, sad, sad. People miserable around me. Until I met you.”
“Together we meet in the middle.”
“The middle’s good,” he said, rolling me over onto my back. His voice dropped lower to almost a growl. A shiver of anticipation ran up my spine. The friendly part of Malcolm left and only his sexier self remained. “But right now, I don’t want to be in the middle … I want to be somewhere else.”
I wiggled my hips around, totally ready to give him whatever he wanted, ready to hear what he was going to say.
His breath came across my face and tickled my neck when he whispered, “I want to be
inside
.”
I fell into the emotions we made together, letting them take me over and smother me. For the first time in my life, I wasn’t afraid of the happiness that overwhelmed us both. Being with Malcolm taught me everything I needed to know about life: Happy is good. Sad is good. And everything in between is definitely worth waiting and fighting for.
