"Hell, yes" Sean slid his arms around her until her soft brsts pressed his chest "You’re a beautiful woman, Andrea Gray, even if you are a dahed It felt so good to laugh He scooped her to hie juice, sensuality, and sex, plus the sparkling ofbetween the inside to be th of hers
Unlike their leisurely kiss in his driveway, Sean sought her with a kind of desperation that was echoed in her He felt her Faeness in the fine bones under his fingertips, the satin of her skin So delicate, and yet at the sa in her throat drove hiers around his waistband, hips ht not realize she was rubbing against him, but his hard-on responded
"I’ll flatter you more than that when you’re in ic deep inside you"
"Hormones," sheers over her throat "Is that why your own pulse is beating so fast? Don’t pretend you’re above a little mate frenzy yourself"
"I’d never be in a mate frenzy" She licked across his rin spread across his face "Andy-love, one day soon, we’ll have a chat about feaze swept to her bosom bared by the V neckline of her shirt Her skin had broken out in goose bumps in the cold--she had dressed for the war "It’ll be a fine talk"
"Keep dreaain She loved to tease hih now that the pall of death had lifted froed off his leather jacket and wrapped it around her shoulders The coat was covered with his scent, and now she would be too You can deny it all you want to, lass, but your frenzy’s as hot as mine
Sean held the jacked by the lapels and bent to kiss her again, just as Dylan cahtness in Dylan’s jaw told Sean that he’d seen the kisses Sean hadDylan’s opinion, which Sean knew had to sting Dylan had slipped in the hierarchy recently, and Sean’s clai his father had driven that fact ho a word to either of theer seat of the pickup, moved the sword, and waited
Sean pressed one more kiss to Andrea’s mouth and released her She stepped away and shot hi off the coat
A tingle of anticipation heated Sean’s blood as he stepped back to let her scramble into the pickup He still hadn’t recovered from the body blow he’d received when she’d walked toward hiant and unafraid He wanted to hold her hard, stroke fiercely into her mouth, learn every corner of her At the saift she’d given him today For the first time in all the years that he’d been Guardian, he’d been able to watch certain death back away and life blossoht in the living roo to watch television Liaone there with hiument Liaoing to the bar to erous, like dive in front of bullets
Liam had finally conceded He’d asked Sean to stay ho forced to reh he seethed, Connor wouldn’t disobey Liaht off, so Sean had no proble here where he could also keep an eye on the house next door

The coat still smelled of her Sean would carry it upstairs and lay it on his bed, hoping the scent would seep into his sheets Then he could drea but the jacket And a pair of spike-heeled shoes Now there was a picture
