The door banged closed. Max went willingly as Lydia steered him deeper into the dark chamber and backed him up against a wall. “Did I say something wrong?” he asked. “Or—”

Her hands lifted to thread through his hair.

“Or right?”

He bent toward her and she rose to meet him, bringing their mouths together in a scorching kiss. Bloody hell. This was the kiss in the club multiplied a thousand times. A kiss to alter fate. A kiss to launch a thousand ships. Somewhere, choirs of angels were singing about this kiss.

What was it he’d said about her movements? Elegant, but fierce? Exactly that. Lydia’s lips were soft against his, warm, and inviting. There was a possession, though, in the way her mouth covered his, and the way her tongue swept inside him. She was claiming him, branding him. Not with force, but with passion.

Lord, the passion. He’d seen the spark in her eyes and the coiled energy beneath her firm control. To feel it, though, was to have one’s world shaken. Her body undulated against his, never still, her fingers sliding over his scalp, her tongue darting and teasing and tempting.

Max flattened his hands against her back and drew her snugly against him, reveling in the sway of her hips and the brush of her breasts across his chest. When he tipped his head slightly for a different angle, she ceded some of her control to him without hesitation. Max delved deeper, stroking her tongue, tasting her essence, while his hands began to rove up and down her back. Lydia allowed him access, her body arching to accommodate his actions. Slight gasps of pleasure encouraged him to go further.

Fuck, but she was delicious. Confident in her sexuality. Comfortable with her power. Not afraid to take what she wanted or accept what he offered.

“Lydia,” he groaned. He dragged his mouth away from hers, bending further to nuzzle her neck and taste the soft skin just above her collar.

She tugged him away from the wall, giving her room to stroke down his back and squeeze his buttocks. Max dropped his hands lower and returned the favor.

Dammit, he wanted her, right here, right now. He wanted to fling up her skirts and bury himself inside her. He wanted to strip her bare and kiss every part of her body.

“You’re fucking gorgeous,” he rasped, kneading her backside and grinding his hips into hers.

“You can hardly see me,” she teased, tilting her head to expose more of her neck to him.

“Doesn’t matter. I remember you.” God, her arse was luscious beneath his fingers. Round and plump and perfect. Maybe he ought to find one of the dressing tables and bend her over it so he could see it bare while he drove into her.

“I remember every curve,” he continued. “Hugged by midnight silk. Sparkling like the night sky.”

A whimper of pleasure came from her throat and she rocked her pelvis into his. “I wore it for you,” she panted. “Knew you’d like it.”

“I love it.
