Rebekah blinked those big baby blues up at me and I wasn’t sure if she wanted me to kiss her or not, so I threaded my fingers through her thick mass of platinum curls and cupped her head. She sucked in a choppy breath and leaned into me a fraction and I had my answer.

“I’m going to kiss you,” I warned, my voice low and gritty, just to be sure we were on the same page and she wouldn’t run from me.

She nodded against my palm. “I know.”

Jesus, she was too sweet. I lowered my mouth and whispered my lips across hers in a gentle caress. Once. Twice. Just a taste. A tease.

But she moaned and gripped my shoulders, practically falling into my chest, and I was lost. I used my tongue to ease the seam of her mouth open and she let me in readily, her tongue dancing with mine as if I was coming home. Slowly, we kissed, learning each other, tasting and savoring. The flavors of wine and Rebekah exploded on my palate.

All too soon, it was over, and she drew back, her eyes wary and her breath loud in the quiet cab.

I wiped a thumb down my lips, imagining I could still feel her heat. Damn. One taste of her was not going to be enough. Not by a long shot. I peered over at her, but she looked suddenly nervous. “Do you need to get home or do you want to go somewhere else?”

Her hands stilled in her lap. “Like where?”

“Wherever you want. We could go get a drink or dessert. Take a walk. Go dancing. It’s your night. You name it, baby.”

Her eyes flared at the endearment that rolled off my tongue, but I wouldn’t take it back.

“Well . . .”

“What? I’m serious. Name it. Anything.”

“Well, I heard about this other casino down the road that has a really nice bar with live music. I’ve been wanting to go check it out, if—”

“Done.” I put the car in gear. “What’s it called?”

She rattled off the name and I plugged it into my phone for directions then headed off.

The casino and bar were hopping, but I kept my eyes peeled for any potential threats as I took her hand and led her through the crowd to a small table in the back. She stayed close to my side and I liked that she didn’t try to pull away from me.

The band was already going full force and a waitress came and took our drink order as soon as we sat down.

Rebekah’s eyes were everywhere, taking it in for entirely different reasons than I did, and I had a hard time keeping my gaze off her now that I knew what those lips tasted like.

After we had our drinks and a slow song came on, I leaned over. “Would you like to dance?”

She only hesitated a moment before placing her hand in mine. “Sure.”

We made it to the dance floor and I tucked her into my embrace.
