Victor was gratified that he at least knew the people who owned the house he'd just unintentionally kissed a woman in. There were worse places they could have been — her house sprang to mind as one example. If she'd been meticulously planning to trap him, she probably would have gone somewhere they had a better chance of being caught. If she intended to trap him, she wouldn't have let him stop kissing her with such little ado and turned her attention towards adjusting her skirts. Which meant, he supposed, that she liked him. A thrum of satisfaction ran through him at the notion.
He let his hand slide off of her waist, slowly — one might have said reluctantly. He wasn't sure what to do next, since he had hardly planned for the day to go this way, but in any case she was right that they couldn't stay here.
"Are you up for returning?" he asked. She looked a bit flustered, which he supposed was to be expected given what had just happened. "If you'd rather return home I'd be happy to escort you."
