Chapter Nine

The best-laid plans.

The thought was fleeting in Pax’s head, rapidly shoved aside by the taste of Shea.

Her lips, seductive and greedily sweet, moved across his, and he had as little defense against them now as when she’d kissed him during the ice storm.

He pushed his fingers through her hair, tilting her head further so he could deepen the kiss, and she made a low, approving sound that went straight down his spine. Her lips parted and her tongue danced, and his self-control snapped.

He ran his mouth down the side of her neck and felt her hands yank at his shirt, thrusting beneath to press against his skin. She groaned and twisted her head until she found his mouth again, and he yanked off her jacket, filling his hands with her breasts.

She let out a soft cry and her head fell back. He could feel her shaking, and he mindlessly backed up until he felt the bunk behind him. He fell onto it, pulling her down over him and dragging her shirt upward, letting his eyes feast before he pulled aside the sheer fabric of her bra, baring her creamy skin to his mouth.

He was hard and ached to his back teeth for her. But the horror in her eyes kept his hands to himself.

“You kissed me, sweetheart,” he reminded. He levered off the bunk, and even though he’d built the boat himself, had taken her out too many times to count, he still managed to slam his head into the overhead locker. He muttered an oath and headed for the steps.

She was hard on his heels, fumbling into her jacket. “Yes, because I was trying to prove a point!”
