Page 893 of One More Kiss

“One moment please, Miss Danvers, if you would.”

Lu walked over, Max stuck close to her side.

“Miss Danvers, as one of our most valued members of the faculty, I would advise you to please, be careful whom you kiss, and where.” His words were stern, and Lu nodded. However, Dean Clark softened the words with a wink of his left eye, which no one but Lu and Max could see.

They walked out to the hall, and Max pulled Lu into the closest stairwell. When the door closed behind them with a solid thud, Max pushed her against it and slanted his lips across hers.

When they came up for air, Max panted, “I’m not sure how you managed to convince Clyde, but I do owe you.”

“You owe him, too. It was a brave move. I discussed a few possibilities with him, but you two will need to work out the details on your own.”

“Yes, ma’am!”

“Now, take me to your home and show me how you plan on paying me back.”

He planned on doing such today, and the rest of the days of their lives together.
