Kiara frowned when she noticed Zane wasn't kissing her back. She was about to pull away when he wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss.

As they pulled away, they both simultaneously heaved a sigh of contentment.

“Sorry, I was shocked...I didn't expect you to agree” He murmured as rested his forehead on hers. She had shocked herself as well. Never did she think she'd be in this position with Zane again after what happened.

“It's just seven days and I'm doing this so both of us can try not to kill ourselves before this trip ends. Plus, I know I'm going to get free stuff" Zane chuckled then leaned down and placed another kiss on her lips.

“You don't know how long I've been waiting to be able to kiss you whenever I want" He murmured and was about to kiss her again when she pulled away.

"Erm... maybe we should take things slow?" He smiled then nodded.

"Okay, if that's what you want" An awkward silence passed between them. They didn’t know what to say to each other as everything suddenly felt... new.

"We don't have to be awkward with each other, do we?" Zane questioned as his hand grabbed hers and began drawing circles on her front palm.

He knew she said she wanted to take things so but he wanted to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He hadn't expected her to agree to this and her agreeing just felt like something that happened in his dreams these days and he wanted it to be real this time. Having her to himself for seven days felt like pure Bliss and he was going to show her what she missed out on after cheating on him.

"Why don't you go take a bath and I'll eat dinner?" He chuckled at her words.

"What, are you trying to say I smell?" She nodded with a sly smile.

"Yes" He rolled his eyes then placed a kiss on her cheeks.

“I'll be right back. Can you wait for me?" She furrowed her eyebrows.

"Why? The food will get cold” He smiled.

“I'll try my best to be fast but I'd like to watch you eat. Remember? That used to be one of my favorite things to do" Her cheeks turned red as she remembered how Zane would stop eating just to watch her eat. She had always thought it was weird and when she asked him, his exact words were;

“I just wanted to make sure you ate well and didn’t choke" She still found his reply odd but she got used to his stares and it turned into a tradition of theirs.

"Okay, I'll wait" He smiled then walked towards the room. She let out a breath she hadn't known she was holding as soon as she heard the door close behind him.

She hated the way her body, her mind, her heart were reacting to his touch, his words and his presence.

"Don't get attached, Kiara. You remember what he did to you, right? Keep that in mind and just try to enjoy the vacation without strings attached" She thought to herself before walking towards the dining table.

She opened the covers on top of the food trays and she gasped at how delicious everything looked. She began to salivate as she sat down on her seat.

Gosh, if Zane doesn't come back anytime soon, she was going to have to eat without him because damn, her stomach was rumbling.

After yearning and moaning for the food in front of her, Zane appeared minutes later wearing only his sweat pants with his hair damp.

“I couldn't even dry my hair because I knew you were waiting for me" He uttered as he sat down beside her and her heart began pounding in her chest and she was sure he could hear it but she couldn't be blamed, he always looked so good when his hair was wet and with him being this close to her while shirtless, she was able to resist when they were in the plane because she was mad but now, she yearned to trail her fingers down his toned chiseled chest.

"Kiara? Did you listen to a thing I said?" He questioned with a raised eyebrow, snapping her out of her trance. She turned to him and tried her best not to smother his handsome face with kisses. “Can you put on a shirt? I don't feel comfortable with you shirtless” His eyes widened slightly.

“I swear I didn't do it purposely, I just... I'm just used to walking around without a shirt" She furrowed her eyebrows when she saw the panic in his eyes.

“It's okay, it's not that serious” He sighed.

“I just don't want you to think I want to seduce you like I was trying to do on the plane. You said you wanted to take things slow and I respect that. I'll go wear a shirt and be right back” He uttered and before she could say anything, he stood up and walked back into the room.

A slow smile appeared on her face. She knew she shouldn't be thinking like this but the way he spoke just now was how he spoke to her in the past when she had wanted to break up with him, like he was so scared to lose her.

A frown suddenly appeared on her face. He didn't sound that way though when he threw her out of the pack, he didn't even give her a second glance. He didn't even bother knowing how she was doing or how she was surviving in the human world, somewhere she had never been before. If she hadn't shown up in his company that day, would they be in this position now or would he have gone on with his life like she didn't exist?

Suddenly, the realization that he might not actually care for her slapped her right in the face and she began to regret her decision. Why was she doing this to herself? It was obvious she still loved him and she was letting her heart decide for her.

She stared at the food and suddenly lost her appetite. Maybe some things were just better left in the past. She stood up from her chair and walked over to the living room to grab her phone to call Levi. He said he could pick her up, right?

She was about to dial his number when Zane hugged her from behind and buried his face in her neck. His warmth embraced her immediately.

“I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Shall we go back? If you want, I can feed you" She bit her lower lip as she closed her eyes

She was weak and was playing right into his trap but she couldn't seem to find a way out... she didn't want to find a way out. Seven days, she was going to try and push away all negative thoughts for seven days and see him as nothing else but Zane, the man she used to love.
