She couldn’t help it as his touch
sent a tremor through her and she began shaking. She was completely aroused,
covered in this man’s blood; he had his hand practically at her throat and she
wanted more. More of all of him, cocky bastard that he was. He had taken her
full circle, from being attacked and nearly killed to a state of euphoria. And
now she was face to face with a man, a seriously erotic one, who looked even
better than the ones she loved to dream up and thought were perfection, and she
looked like she’d just been murdered. It was a lot to take in all in the same
day, much less in an hour.
“Thank you?” She asked it as a
question in a breathy voice. Her wounds did feel better and she glanced down,
seeing some of them miraculously starting to close. She had definitely lost
control of herself and the situation.
“You’re welcome,” he said looking
dreamily and directly into her eyes.
“Criminy, that was the sexiest ‘you’re
welcome’ I’ve ever heard.” The words fell from her mouth before she could stop
them. His voice was soft and deep. But the tone … the tone managed to stroke
her entire body all over again. The electricity was palpable between them.
Then she thought back to his
previous behavior; what an arrogant ass he’d been and how she had detested him.
She thought about getting up and walking out, since she wasn’t having the sharp
pain anymore. But her body seriously objected; it had gone to the dark side and
it was staying.
She drank him in; this was much
closer than she had been to him before. He had a chiseled strong, square jaw
and full, kissable lips, but they were completely outdone by the intensity of
his exotic golden eyes. She took in the entire length of him again; he had an
energy emanating from his body and demanding attention. He somehow managed to
be sleek, long, intensely muscular and amazingly masculine all at the same
time; like a panther, a big sexy cat, staring with his intense yellowish gaze.
“Are you warm enough?” he inquired
in a deep, sexy drawl; he had a hint of an accent she hadn’t noticed before.
She couldn’t place it, but the sound of it slithered out, wrapped around her,
and slowly whispered “sex”.
Her mind betrayed her next as she
thought about her books and her dreams. What
usually happens at this point? Should I begin running my fingers through his
hair, do I stroke him? Should I … and then he leaned in and kissed her.
His hand was back to her belly,
and he turned in and lightly brushed his lips against hers. She had wanted this
so badly in her dreams and now she felt horribly nervous. With all of her
wishing and dreaming and hoping, and even with the aroused state she was in,
the fact that she had no practical experience at being intimate, and barely any
at kissing, was all she could think of right then, and her body tensed. She
began to tremble and wonder what came next, as the fear, excitement,
anxiousness, and desire all came to her at once.
