Chapter 5—continued!
“You are such a charmer, Keaton, women must love that. You even have me falling for it.” Evelyn had already extracted herself from his arms and distance was again between them.
“Evelyn, I don’t normally do this. There is just something about you.” Keaton’s face had grown stern and serious and Evelyn had to look away.
“You act as if you have never met an American woman before.”
“You are not like most American women. Any woman for that matter.”
“We have only known each other for 24 hours. You don’t know much about me at all.” Evelyn had turned again to face Keaton, his hands raising to frame her face.
“I know that you are smart but wild, passionate, historically nerdy…beautiful.” Evelyn laughed but she couldn’t tear her eyes away from his as he continued. “The way you kiss, well that alone has told me so much.” Keaton leaned in for another kiss from her beckoning lips and Evelyn caught herself before she fell for his trick.
“Keaton!” Evelyn laughed, blushing, and stepped out of his grasp for good. She needed to get back to her flat before things got any more heated between them than they already had.
Keaton wanted her so badly. His body was saying one thing while he knew he needed to get her home but he had to see her again.
“I better get you home I suppose?”
“You suppose right.”
They headed off the grounds of Kensington Palace and into the London night.
