Chapter Fourteen

Night had fallen, still and beautiful, by the time Paxton and Emma left the station and returned to the loft. The rain had stopped, the sky had cleared, and the moon had a clarity undimmed by clouds or city lights.

The moonlight streaming through the windows in the loft was bright enough to illuminate the way, and Paxton succumbed to the temptation to leave the lights off. The darkness had weight and texture and she reveled in the magic of the night, awash in the sensuality of it and the feel of Emma’s arm, warmly wrapped around her waist.

Walking into the bedroom, she paused long enough to light some candles, then turned back to where Emma was standing near the foot of the bed. As she looked at her, the realization of just how much she wanted her nearly overwhelmed her, and Paxton’s steps faltered.

“You’re madness in my blood,” she murmured. She tried to keep her hand steady as she picked up Emma’s hand and tasted the center of her palm. Emma shivered and the tremors transferred, sending shivers racing up Paxton’s spine. “I want you. So very much. But I need to know. I need to be sure that this is what you want.”

Her voice was not much more than a whisper in the night air, while she searched Emma’s gaze. But it was clearly enough as Emma reached for her, tugged a strand of her bangs, and pulled her nearer. “I thought you’d never ask,” she said before leaning in and offering her mouth.

Paxton inhaled sharply, lost in hazel-green eyes. And then there was no longer any time for words. As darkness and heat surrounded them, she closed her eyes and turned off her mind, her questions, her doubts. All that mattered was the moment. And Emma. The rest would take care of itself.

Emma’s lips were full and soft and resilient. Her mouth tasted hot. Sweet. An intoxicating blend of heat and desire. And what started slowly as a gentle lover’s kiss quickly evolved and became so much more.

Paxton used her lips and tongue to tease Emma’s mouth, her teeth to nip her lips, her hands to draw her closer as she drove her fingers through her hair. The simple act of kissing became an erotic mating of mouths and tongues, and the fires stirring and burning deep within her left Paxton wet and needy. Aching. Wanting and craving more.

More demanding, Paxton pressed her mouth against Emma’s in a deep, endless kiss as she began to unbutton her shirt. Then, with very little effort, she pushed the soft silk top off Emma’s shoulders, down her arms, and onto the floor. A lace bra quickly followed.

Lazily, she trailed one of her fingers across silky skin, starting at her parted lips, down her jaw and neck, to the pebbled tip of her breast. And then she followed the trail she’d blazed with her mouth while her hands slid inside Emma’s jeans. Long fingers could be a distinct advantage at times and she used every bit of that advantage, teasing them both in the process.
