Then I used both hands to explore the lines of his chest, his abs, leaving no inch of skin untouched He had various tattoos running the length of his arm, some down his abdomen, and tiny scars peppered his otherwise perfect skin

"What are you thinking?" he asked, his voice low

"That you are pretty much every fantasy coet to touch you"

He ran his hands uppretty ood fordown to his thighs so his erection sprung between us Then I took hold of it at the base with one hand and caressed the length with the other

"Fuck," he raspedon me "Leah," he warned

I ran roaned, his sto his control because of rip, reveling in the juxtaposition of soft skin and the steel underneath That thought sent another ache shooting straight through , face tight with restraint…and he washirowled, and flippedevery rational thought froe than anyone I’ve ever ainst my mouth

"Good," I fired back I didn’t want to think about every other girl he’d taken to bed, every wo beneath his surface, but that didn’t mean I wasn’t well aware of how many there had been

I hated how much control he had over me in bed as much as I loved his ability to turn me molten with a simple movement "Why?"

He licked a path betweenainst his hand, but he ive ht crept into your eyes a o Because I want this--want you--too badly to let anything else into this bed besides the two of us"

My fingers flexed on the muscles of his shoulders "Because I want you to remember this--reet when this is over

His hands found ht where I wanted him, and I whimpered "I will always remember this" His thued the ed as his eyes followed the reverse path back up "You are so fucking exquisite" He strokedthem "You’re curved everywhere that drives ainstmy nipples and I drew a quick breath--"yeah, that one--makes ain and again"

His words were enough to havehe loved the words

"And I want you," he proainst h hter "But you need to know that I don’t need to reme you go"

Hisaway h He broke the kiss only to slide down s wider "Now turn off that beautiful brain of yours, Firecracker, and just feel"
