CROW

“Can we talk later?” Birdie’s rain-cloud eyes are half closed. Her lips are parted, her breath coming in small gasps. “I just want…this. You.”

All the plans in my head about what I was going to say, everything I was going to explain, fly out the window. I slide my hands under her hair and weave my fingers through the silky strands. As I touch her, I can smell the warm heat radiating off her body, her hair, a sweet scent of berry and vanilla. My mouth waters, and I hold her head in my hands, searching her face.

“You want me?” I grunt, not wanting to believe it but desperately needing to. “This?”

I lower my lips to hers and try to memorize every second of this experience. I haven’t been with a woman in so long, I know there’s no way I want to waste any part of it. I release her hair and run my fingers over her lips, her chin, exploring the tender skin, the soft curves of the most beautiful face I’ve seen. Not just since before prison. Ever.

Birdie awakens something in me that no other woman has. It’s primal and raw, the desire and the drive I have to protect her. To be near her. To be part of whatever life this is she’s trying to make. Flawed and funny and real. My blood sizzles through my veins, and I’m like a starving man set before a feast, but I refuse to dive in. I need to take my time. This is a moment I didn’t realize I’ve been wanting, and now that it’s here, I’m going to make it last.

Birdie isn’t a meal. She’s nourishment, sustenance. I want to feed off this sweetness as long as I can.

I lower my head and claim her lips in light, fluttering kisses.

“So good,” I groan. “You taste so, so good. Feel so, so good.”

Her hands are on my back, tentative at first, but as I open my mouth and deepen the kiss, her fingers are searching, pulling me closer. Our hips are pressed together, the heat of our bodies forming a seal I don’t ever want to break.

I dip my tongue against hers, then go deeper, our teeth clacking as electricity makes my body tight and hard in all the right places. I scrape my stubble against her chin, her cheeks, and pull back to kiss the tender pink skin of her neck. She’s flushed with arousal, her eyes closed, her head thrown back. I trace a line down her throat with my lips, but I stop when I reach the hollow of her neck.

I have to stop. My body is like an animal on the prowl, and I’ve got Birdie in my sights. I want to claim her, own her, make her mine, but not like this. Not today. Not when there’s so much she needs to understand. I could fuck her and run, break the seal on seven long years of celibacy and isolation, but that’s not what I want from her.
