Chapter 26 Goodbye

Klaire's P.O.V A few hours age. I wake, feeling warm. I'm wrapped around a naked Dwayne. Even though he's fast asleep, he's holding me close. My mouth curls into a smile as I watch him. Soft morning light will soon arise. I lay my head back on his chest, my leg still tangled with his, my arm across his stomach. Feeling every moment that I'm with him.

I lean over and tenderly kiss
