Spadeâs arms banded tighter around me as the force of the explosions rocked into us. His tall form cocooned over me, his thick corded muscles shielding me from most of the shock. The few remaining lights blinked out and screams echoed throughout the ballroom. A creaking sounded over us, and Spade scooped me up in his arms, dashing out of the way just as the chandelier above us began to groan at the shockwaves itâd been hit with, ominously rocking back and forth in the dim glow of the emergency lights. I frantically clutched my arms around his neck as the thick chain snapped, sending the chandelier hurtling toward the ground. Spade dropped to the floor midstride, his body folding around mine to shield me as crystal smashed against the hardwood floor, sending shards of glass shattering around us.
His warm breath skated across my neck, and despite my rapid heartbeat hammering against my chest, warm tendrils of lust coiled up my spine and I arched into his touch. Fuck, this wasnât the time to get turned on, but I couldnât help it with the pressure of his hard chest against my back, protecting me, shielding me from danger. My adrenaline was already pumping from the peril surrounding us, and that on its own was enough to send waves of lust straight to my core, even without his selfless act. I fought back the urge to turn my head to the side, knowing his lips would be right there, reminding myself this wasnât really the time nor the place for that.
âCareful, sugar, if you keep rubbing against me like that, Iâll throw caution to the wind and pin you down on this floor right now,â he groaned in my ear, his promise making my breath catch. His lips brushed the shell of my ear, sending waves of heat through me and my back arched again, searching for some friction. Only then did I realize I was indeed grinding against him as I felt his hard length against my backside. I sucked in a sharp breathâfighting against the little voice inside that wanted to push him, to see if he really would lose controlâand reluctantly lowered to the ground, turning in his grip to face him. I mightâve also forgotten about the shards of glass littering the floor because his hand clasped my wrist a second before it landed on a stray piece. He used that hold to pull us both up, glass cracking under his thick black loafers. I stepped gingerly on the glass, careful to miss any larger pieces that might scrape the exposed skin from my open heels.
He didnât let go of my wrist, instead, he clutched it to his chest just above his heart, his eyes glittering with mischief as he looked down at me. A grin curled on my lips as I met that look and I could almost see all the trouble the two of us would get into in that moment, two kindred spirits, craving the dark, relishing in the danger, and taking every moment of pleasure in between.
