Stolen Gifts - Excerpt

​

            My gaze shifted to my reflection and Caine as he came to stand behind me.   I saw the stark differences between us.  It was reinforcement to why we would never be.  I was short to his tall.  Light skinned to his tanned. My blonde hair to his black.  Even though we both had light eyes, my green eyes have hazel undertones, while his eyes are a deep blue.  In personality we are polar opposites.  I keep to myself and like to remain under the radar, whereas he is well known and uses that popularity to his advantage.  There were no two people more different than us. 

 

            So when he leaned in and whispered in my ear, “We look good together don’t we?” I had to stop my mouth from gaping.
