Carefully he turned around so my arms still remained around him. He stared down at me before lifting me up so we could be face to face.

I wrapped my legs around his waist and then I let my arms cross behind his neck so that I could rest my head on his shoulder.

"I do not want this. I do not want to win this wager." I admitted while holding on to him with all the strength that I had left in me "I do not want to lose you."

Brennan nodded his head "I wish I could have loved you."

I had a theory that Brennan was just as secretive and standoffish as Stone. He just hid it much better with his charm and charisma. I always felt there was something he was holding back.
