CHAPTER NINE

Maybe she had taken the lead, but it didn’t mean she was in total control. Steph gasped when Raoul cupped his hand along the back of her neck and drew her head down, meeting her lips with his. The kiss was strong, sure, and devastating; a clash of mouths and tongues as they let desire sweep in. After only a few moments Stephani shifted, so that she was no longer sitting on his lap but straddling it, her knees pressed against the back of the chair and her bottom resting on his thighs. His hands cupped her there and she threaded her fingers through his hair. It was so thick, so soft. She’d always wondered, and now she knew.

His lips slid from her mouth to the hollow of her neck, and she gave a little cry as he nipped the tendon running from her neck to her shoulder. The chair was rather limiting for movement, but Raoul tilted his hips anyway and she strove to meet him.

Confused, cautious, whatever he wanted to call it—there was no mistaking what they were feeling right now. Desire. Turned on. She knew in her heart that Raoul hadn’t made love to anyone since Ceci’s death, and it had been even longer for her. She wanted him so badly she nearly wept with it.

But weeping would definitely be a mood killer, so instead she kissed him full on the mouth again before whispering, “We need to go inside.”

She gave a little squeak when Raoul didn’t answer but grabbed her bottom and stood, keeping her legs wrapped around his waist. “Open the damned door,” he growled, and she blindly reached behind him and hit the handle on the French door.

He backed them into the living room and then kicked the door shut with a definitive rattling of the glass. When he put her down on the sofa, she looked up and saw his nearly black eyes glittering at her. A dark thrill shot through her body, full of anticipation and want. Raoul dropped down on a knee on the cushion beside her, bracing himself up on his hands as he kissed her. It only took a few seconds for him to lower his body, the delicious length of him pressing her into the sofa.

She welcomed his weight, reveled in it. Hips to pelvis they rocked, mimicking the act she wished for so much but knew could not happen tonight. But she wasn’t going to stop yet. It felt too good. She’d waited too long.

Raoul sat up and made quick work of the buttons on his shirt, peeling it off his shoulders and discarding it on the floor. Stephani’s heart raced at the sight of him, and she scrambled to undo her own buttons until her blouse gaped open, revealing her barely there bra. Over and over her mind repeated that he was there for her. She was the one turning him on. She was the one he wanted to be with. It didn’t stop being surreal, no matter how often she thought it.
