Passion sparked between us like a bare wire — touch it and it kills you instantly. And we touched! We walked on the edge and burned each other. Then I lost to Dan, surrendering. I laid all my "weapons" at his feet, but my thoughts repeatedly resisted, quickly returning to Nick. Otherwise, everything is great! I'm a journalist who started a new life in the capital. The past only occasionally makes itself known with an "online" status in social networks.

But no matter what happens next, I'm not ready to lose him, and no matter what it costs me, I want to show him that life goes on, and that I can be the one who will restore his ability to love.

No, I didn't know his face. But the sharp line of his chin and the mole near the right corner of his mouth — I had time to examine them closely... I thought about turning around and running out of the office, but for some reason I continued to stand in the doorway and stare at him. “Stand there, mouse,” I heard his commanding tone. “I recognized you... Come here. Let's talk...”
