snow, especially given that the river, with its barren trees, was such a marked change from the seemingly endless miles of concrete nearby.
    Finally, he dared to break the silence between them. Snow crunched under his feet as he stepped to her side.
    “Lily, I understand your fears, and I wish I could reassure you so that you would undoubtedly believe me.” He turned her to face him, gently cupping her face in his palms. “I will never stray again, in body or spirit.”
    An inkling of despair drifted from her, and her eyes shimmered with moisture. “I want to believe you, Seth. Truly, I do.”
    But she didn’t.
    Disappointment wound through his body, and his hands fell away.
    Lily turned back to the water, soft as a whisper. “Sometimes I curse the day we discovered this world.”
    He sighed and moved behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist. She tensed, but didn’t shirk away, and he took the opportunity to press a kiss to her creamy white shoulder. “Life is a mysterious thing.”
    That was the understatement of the century. Who would have guessed that one day, without any warning, their world would cease to exist, leaving them abandoned on Earth with no idea how they’d gotten there or whether their dimension even existed anymore?
    “I know that I love you, Lily. Despite all my mistakes, despite everything, I’ve never stopped loving you.”
    She stiffened, and he thought she would pull away, but in the end, she leaned back into his chest.
    His heart thumped hard against his ribcage. This might have been the first time since Isabelle that she’d actually sought out his touch. He didn’t dare hope what that might mean.
    Her hands moved down to where his arms wrapped around her waist and she grasped the back of his hands, sliding them up to cup her small firm breasts over the thin fabric of her tank top.
    Seth’s breath caught in his throat and his body immediately responded, his cock going stiff against the leather of his pants. There was really no mistaking that action, but it was so unexpected he still had to ask. “Lily?”
    “Just touch me,” she whispered, resting her head against his shoulders. Her eyes fluttered shut. “I need to feel. To know I’m alive.”
    Only a fool would question any further, so he did as she asked, kneading her round breasts before rubbing his thumbs over the tips.
    She gasped and slid her bottom back and forth against him in pure invitation.
    A groan tore from his throat as he tugged the fabric of her top up to free her breasts. The light from the moon reflected off the icy waters, casting shimmers along her soft skin. He traced them with his fingers, then thumbed her nipples once more, working them into stiff little buds.
    “Seth,” she whispered, her voice low and breathy. “Undo my pants.”
    He stifled a curse as excitement raged within him. With his hands over her breasts, he propelled them both toward the nearest tree, which lay at an angle on the icy bank. She lifted her palms to grasp hold of the icy trunk and arched her back so that her luscious bottom pressed invitingly into him.
    Heavens, but she was delicious.
    There were so many things he wanted to say to her, so many apologies resting on his tongue, but he feared if he spoke it would break this spell that had somehow been cast over them. So instead, he focused on giving her pleasure, pressing soft kisses to her shoulder and spine as his hands kneaded her breasts.
    “Seth,” she gasped, a note of pleading drifting from her.
    Knowing what she wanted, he brought his fingers down to the button of her black cargo pants. After undoing it and the zipper, he tugged her pants down to reveal the curves of her firm round ass. Stepping back, he allowed himself a moment to memorize the curves of her body in the shimmering moonlight.
    Lily had always been a stunner. The years had done nothing to mar her beauty.
    “Gorgeous, my love,” he whispered in a voice full of awe. “Always so gorgeous.”
    “Seth.”
