Yanni lost her head as a wave of heat pooled into her stomach. She began to realise that her dream was slowly becoming a reality. James clutched her face with his hands, kissing her passionately. His tongue was in her mouth, and Yanni’s heart pounded in her chest. Her nipples hardened, and the ache between her legs reminded her that last night she was drenched for him.
He pulled her bottom lip with his teeth and then started devouring her neck. She struggled to remain on her feet, aware that the warmth from his body was disrupting all her senses. A shocking wave of heat seemed to be invading her veins, spreading all the way down to her toes. There was nothing soft or tentative about the Ice King’s touch. His body felt cold and warm at the same time. Then he pressed his mouth against hers again, boldly parting her lips. He was kissing her like he was starving for his last meal, while her heart was rocketing in her chest. Then the voice of reason reminded her that she wasn’t supposed to be doing this.
In the sleighs she was distant, she didn’t let him touch her, and now she was melting away like the snow on a warm spring day. Everything was failing apart. James was transparent when he was all over Sarah in the tavern, he even touched her in front of everyone in the dining room and yet now, he and Yanni were hiding away.
Seconds later, she managed to pull away from him—her lips were swollen and her breathing was erratic. James looked shocked, but fire filled his eyes and Yanni could have sworn that he was almost radiating with energy.
“No, please, James. I thought that I made myself clear earlier on. I’m not like the other women that you’re used to. Maybe I should leave and get—”
“I’m sorry, Yanni. I lost my head. Please don’t leave, not yet. I won’t lose control like that again,” he told her, dragging his hand through his hair.
Her whole body felt feverish, and she was trying to stay calm. Then awkward silence stretched between them. A moment later, before Yanni knew what was happening, James lifted her off the ground and started carrying her back to the manor.
She shouted at him to put her down, but he laughed.
“Please, James, you cannot do this. I’m perfectly capable of walking on my own!”
“No, darling, you’re soaking wet, and you weigh almost nothing. Now, you’re all right,” he said, when he finally put her down just outside the entrance to the manor.
Yanni shook her head and then saw that Sarah was approaching. She must have been waiting for James, probably wondering where he was. All the other women were already inside the main room. Yanni could hear her talking and laughing. The servants were running around with trays filled with delicious canapés.
Yanni quickly went inside, passing Sarah who still looked furious. Something must have happened to James that he suddenly wanted to have some alone time with her.
