their kiss. For days afterward, he couldn’t get the feel of her in his arms out of his mind. He liked the way her body folded into his as if she belonged there. As if she wanted to be there. As if it was the right place for her. And he wanted nothing more than to go on holding her.
In the time since he decided to never marry again, he hadn’t met anyone who captured his mind days after meeting the way Teddy had. Pushing himself up straight on the sofa, Adam became very serious. He scrutinized Quinn for a moment before asking, “Have you ever been in love? I mean, really in love? Have you ever wanted a woman more than you’ve wanted anything else?”
Quinn pointed the remote control at the television and clicked it off. “This is going to take some time.”
For a long moment Quinn stared at Adam. The two brothers were close and rarely held anything from each other. Adam wanted to tell him about the pact, but not yet.
“You think you’re in love?” Quinn asked, breaking Adam’s train of thought.
“No.”
“Then what do you think?”
“I’m not sure. I think I might be going through some kind of phase.”
“Phase?” Quinn grunted. “You’re way too old for phases.”
“Has it happened to you, Quinn?” Adam asked seriously.
His brother hesitated. Then said, “Once.”
“With who? What happened? Why didn’t I know about this?”
“You have your own life and mainly you work after dark.”
“I work with world markets. They’re open late,” Adam said. “What about the woman you were in love with?”
