Chapter 95 Hopes & Promises

• "Why? Do you want me to stay back?" I throw the question back without answering even though my heart is beating like it wants to tear right out of my chest. Of course I have considered staying back so we get more time to spend together. But the constant intrusion of Daisy and the fear of being discovered by others have kept that need at bay.
• "Yes. I want you to stay back. I don't think I could go two weeks without you. I want to take you to spend the two weeks break at my ranch in the country side. It is where I go to write." Zane says, holding my eyes. My heart leaps. I have to get used to him being this openly vulnerable with me and his feelings. It is so raw and it leaves me breathless.
• "You have a ranch?" I ask, deflecting from the madness of my heart thumping almost out of my chest. Two whole weeks away with him. Alone. In the countryside. That is straight out of a fairytale. I would like nothing more.
