a sharp exhale fell from her lips as he leaned in close, wanting desperately to melt into him. the way his breath feathered across her skin made a delicious shiver run through her. Katherine liked to think of herself as the master manipulator, but Stefan knew how to +

leaning just close enough for his breath to ghost across her cheek, “i’d make sure you meant it.”
a faint smirk tugged at him now.
“but don’t confuse curiosity with hope,” he murmured. “i’ve learned better than to expect honesty wrapped up in one of your pretty speeches.”

teeth caught her lower lip to muffle a small chuckle, emerald hues alight with mischief. her full lower lip jutted out in a small, playful pout, her tongue clicking. “awe, what’s the matter, Stefan?” she grinned now, one of those rare smiles that lacked malice. +

stefan lets out a quiet breath of a laugh, eyes dragging over her deliberately before meeting hers again.
“please,” he says softly, a brow lifting. “i’m not the one staring like i’m about to drool.”

a smirk pulls at her lips, lifting a brow. “careful, Stefan. you’ll start drooling.”
