[It was a valid statement, but one he had no answer for. Derek didn't know why he wanted her, why he couldn't seem to stay away. Or maybe he did. Maybe he was tired of being alone. Tired of always feeling nothing. Jennifer had touched a part of him he thought no longer worked.
She'd brought out emotions in him that Derek honestly hadn't been sure he was still capable of after Kate. He didn't trust himself, he didn't trust her. But he wanted her. He wanted to forget. To pretend they were just two people. Not enemies, not darach and werewolf. Just Derek and Jennifer.
He took a step closer, sliding his large palm over her skin, cupping her cheek, his slightly callused thumb brushing against her face as he held her gaze.
Isn't it enough that I do? Does there have to be an explanation for everything?
[He leaned into her, breathed in her scent. His lips hovering near hers.]
I won't come again.
[His words were whispered and they were also a lie. He would come again and he knew she knew it.]
