Jace kisses the side of her head and breathes in her hair, drawing her even closer. He closes his eyes and tries to pretend it hadn't happened.

Jace flashes a smile of relief at Rayah and sits at her backside, leaning her against his chest and wrapping his arms around her as she types furiously into her ...
