Chapter Thirteen

Rafferty didn’t mean to claim her mouth so roughly or insistently. Hell, he hadn’t meant to kiss her at all, at least not initially, but when she’d taken that step toward him, his restraint had dropped away and he’d just acted.

She tasted like heaven.

He knew she would taste good, but his expectations fell far short of reality. No pastry on this earth tasted so amazing and he couldn’t get enough. His arms tightened around her, smashing her pert soft breasts against his muscled chest.

She’d made a low noise of encouragement, letting him know that she didn’t mind his forceful technique. In fact, she relaxed her jaw, parted her teeth first. C’mon in, cowboy.

Here I come, sweetheart. He’d plunged his tongue inside her.

Her arms twined around his neck.

Rafferty heard a low buzzing in the back of his head. A ravenous fever mounted inside him. Her eyes were closed and he closed his too, savoring the specialness of this moment.

He never wanted it to end.

Many kisses. He’d kissed many women. Many times. Not that he was a player or anything, but he was a young, healthy, red-blooded male. He’d had his fair share of romances, knew a thing or two about kissing.

But this? He had no words. It was beyond any kiss he’d ever gotten or given.

That scared him. A lot.

He hadn’t meant to start anything. She’d just been talking about Jake and how spontaneous he’d been and Rafferty had started feeling jealous because he wasn’t spontaneous, and obviously, Lissy liked spontaneous men, and when she’d taken that step toward him, the floodgates had opened and his brain had sent a single message to his nerve endings.

Just do it.

So he’d kissed her.

Now he had to live with the consequences. He’d gone and done the very thing he’d fought against since meeting her. He had the willpower of a fruit fly.

Dammit, Jones.

He’d started this. It was his place to stop it. Rafferty pulled away, broke the kiss.

Lissette’s eyes were wide. They were both tugging in equal, desperate gasps. “Wow,” she said. “That was—”

“Nice,” he said quickly before she had a chance to figure out she’d rocked his world.

“Yes . . . um . . . nice. That was nice.”

“Bad idea, though.”

“Totally.”

“I promise it won’t happen again.”

She looked distressed. “No, no. Won’t happen again.”

He got up. “I should go.”

“Yes.” She dropped her gaze.

He forced a smile, turned around, and headed out the back door, knowing he could never undo what he’d just done. Worse than that, he didn’t want to undo it.

He had to leave Jubilee. Now.

Because, if he stayed, he knew he was going to make love to her. She wanted it as much as he did. He saw it in her eyes. He’d tasted the strength of her desire. Making love to her was so wrong, why then did the idea of it feel so right?

He fumbled the lock, got the door open to his apartment, and tumbled into the room. He pulled his suitcase out from under the bed. He could not stay here.
