The words were a match to kindling. Four little words and he was on fire. Without another word, he crushed her to him and claimed her lips, groaning as he felt every inch of her curves through the thin material that separated.
Promise to Charles be damned. Heâd known the second heâd seen her by the lake that he would have her.
Just as heâd known she hadnât come here tonight for a book.
All evening heâd watched as she laughed and smiled with his guests. With his brother, for Godâs sake. And he might have grown jealous had he not seen her own jealousy flash across her face while Marissa pawed at him.
Heâd surprised himself by feeling absolutely nothing for the woman whoâd warmed his bed only days ago. When her whispered propositions left him cold. Thatâs when heâd known that he needed to bed the woman in his arms. If for nothing else than to get her out of his system.
That kiss had tormented him, the need to taste her again driving him to Bedlam.
She melted against him with a tiny moan that set his cock hardening painfully against his breeches.
He could feel every second that her confidence grew, her arms winding up to wrap around his neck, her hips grinding greedily against his length. Just like earlier, there was no slow build of passion, no finesse or art of seduction just immediate, all-consuming passion. And it boiled his blood like nothing ever had before.
With a growl against her swollen lips, he grabbed hold of her and lifted her, coaxing her legs to wrap around his waist.
She gasped against his mouth and he knew he must be hitting the spot that would drive her to the edge, and suddenly he needed to see that happen. More than he needed to plunge into her depths, he wanted to see hear and hear her as she unravelled. As she went over the edge by his hand, his mouth.
Without breaking their kiss, he moved to the chaise laying her across the cushions and stepping back just to take in the sight of her.
Golden-brown hair spilled over the cushions of the sofa, and soft, chocolate eyes glazed with desire stared up at him. Lips red and plump from his ministrations parted as she gasped for breath.
The thing wrap that shielded some of her from him had come undone and lay open, revealing the thin material of her nightgown.
Heâd never seen anything so beautiful.
Somewhere in a distant part of his brain, warning sounds began to clang. His heart, cold beast that it was, clenched as something like affection threatened to make itself known. And it would have given him pause if right at that moment, she hadnât smiled at him. Softly, shyly, a little uncertain. But it was enough that her lips demanded to be kissed again. And so he did just that before moving to her neck, then lower, biting at her collarbone, inhaling the honeysuckle scent that had driven him mad earlier and still clung to her skin now.
