“How grand,” Thea enthused, tucking her face in the crook of his neck as he turned toward the stairs. Up close, his divine scent could have sent her to her knees. Good thing he carried her.

Warming her lips against his fragrant skin, she said, “It appears as though we get to be inappropriate together.” She caressed the thick hair at his nape, threading her fingers through the cool, silken strands. She couldn’t help but notice the muscles of his neck beneath. “And look, you’re so strong, I don’t even need to hold on.”

Joyfully, she kicked her feet and waved her arms as he ascended the steps. He didn’t make so much as a perceptible pause. “No doubt I could roll over and try my hand at archery and you’d still hold tight.”

He muttered something that sounded suspiciously like, “God save me.”

“Nuh-uh, my lord,” she chided gently when he reached the bedroom—not breathing a speck harder than usual—and swung her to her feet. If she entertained him sufficiently by rattling her own jaws, perhaps ’twould keep him from worrying his. “Do you forget so soon? I’m charged with all the talking tonight. You may reciprocate another time.”

Not giving him leave to protest—or herself a chance to inspect his chamber, she set about the smile-worthy task of ridding them of their clothes.

A light push to his chest and she backed him to the bed. A single finger to his shoulder and he sat.

“Boots.” She pointed. “Off. Now.” She giggled. (Giggled? Definitely not something she’d done much of in her past.) “See? I can say a lot in a few words too.”

As she stepped back to give him room, he snared her waist and hauled her to him. Slanting her mouth downward with a strong hand to the back of her head, he captured her gasp of surprise and gave her a bruisingly fierce kiss.

The pressure of his mouth upon hers said so much.

With bold sweeps of his tongue and the firm caress of his fingers against her scalp he expressed his longing. Tender nips greeted first her top lip and then the bottom. His harsh exhalation as he scraped his teeth over the sensitive flesh he exposed when he gently sucked on her lower lip told her he’d been waiting for the right moment to devour her. To explain.

His every action shouted that he was sorry, that he cared, that he wanted her. Needed this. This. Whatever it was between them that defied the short amount of time they’d been together.

His hand swept down to center over one breast, to rub the slight swell, tease the nipple into an aching point. The intense pressure lifted her to her toes and into him as she toppled forward against his chest and he pulled her tongue into his mouth, as she told him, I’m here. I need you back.

As fast as it began, he gentled the assault. His other hand slid from her head to her spine, a sweeping caress that left tingles in its wake.
