Camilla looked at his face. She saw the intense way he was staring at her.
She lowered her eyes back to his wrapped hand. She held his large hand gently in hers.
Then, Camilla leaned her head down again. She pressed her soft, warm lips directly against the white lace handkerchief covering his knuckles. She kissed the wrapped injury very softly.
Damon felt the light pressure of her lips through the cloth. A sudden, massive shock of heat traveled straight up his arm and directly into his chest. His entire body went completely stiff.
Camilla lifted her head. She looked at him again. Her expression was serious and calm.
"Be careful next time," Camilla instructed him softly. Her voice sounded exactly like a wife scolding her husband for being reckless.
Damon was completely stunned. His brain simply stopped working. He stared at her soft lips. He stared at her eyes.
He blinked once.
He blinked twice.
He blinked thrice.
