Matthias savored that kiss. The intensity of it sent a thrill skittering along his spine and left his heart beating fast. Gasping in a sip of air, he peered up at Sam from under his thick lashes. It almost seemed demure if not for the heat burning in his eyes. His fingers trailed along the back of Sam’s neck, toying at the shortest hair at his nape.
Matthias had a mind to make some smartass remark. ‘I wouldn’t say no.’ ‘If it makes you happy.’ He thought twice about that, not wanting to hurt Sam or seem half-hearted in such a moment as this. So, he nodded instead. And nodded again. “I will.”
