She drew back, just a fraction, and stared up at him with those eyes filled with a little surprise, like she couldn’t believe the electricity between them

He was not a little surprised

He was stunned

He could feel her warm breath on his face and the heat of her body just barely touching his, and he wanted her with an ache that couldn’t be explained

As if she could read that want, herinto histo the heat, the passion His hands cupped her face as the two of theether for an endless ainst hi her hands drift over his shoulders, his chest, whatever she could reach He absolutely returned the favor Holding her head cupped in a palm, he caressed her breast, her nipple hard under his touch, her ue

When they finally broke apart it was to stare at each other She licked her lips like she wanted to hold on to the taste of hiroaned

"It’ll cost you," Aidan said

"Yeah, yeah, just do it"

Hud shook his head "Next subject"

"Fine You kissed our cutie-pie rinned
