Chapter Forty-Seven

Summary

• The chapter begins with the main characters, Hunt and Bryce, getting caught in a storm two blocks away from Bryce's building.
• Hunt feels pain in his forearm and shoulder as they reach the roof of Bryce's building, however, he ignores it to focus on Bryce who appears to be in shock.
• Hunt is visibly concerned for Bryce, keeping his arms around her and stroking her ribs for comfort.
• Bryce breaks their momentary silence by confessing her gratitude that Hunt is alive and well after what they've endured, describing the night as 'sucky'.
• They share an intimate moment as Bryce wraps her arms around Hunt while they continue to stand in the rain.
• Hunt takes in her scent and leans into her neck, the action overwriting painful past experiences and vows he had taken. Bryce also reciprocates, stroking Hunt's back.
• Just as Hunt was about to cross a line by touching Bryce more intimately, the expectant moment is interrupted as Sabine enters, angrily commanding Hunt to step back.
