He slid his pal The silky strands drifted over his fingers

"Kiss ain," she h he’d never had his tongue in a woman’s mouth before He searched every crevice, riue He couldn’t get enough

Desire roared through him

Little moans escaped her as she tre her? "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice trih bark

He drew back and looked at her "This car is too daaze fell to his lips She gasped His fangs had eood idea," she whispered, leaning back into her seat, her gaze fixed to his mouth The waves of lavender receded

He winced and closed his eyes He had no choice Had to rein hiroin like he’d just gotten kicked

"Yes"
