Her body tingled, nerve-endings uncurling in anticipation, heart rate speeding up It was just sex, and she regularly told herself that fact But she still had to accli to rip his clothes off every time she saw him

With an impatient sound he scooped up the heap of newspapers on her lap ‘Haven’t you learned yet?

Her full lower lip had parted fro you’ve complained?’

Aristandros shrugged and re it on to the ottoolden eyes assailed her as he straightened to his full six-foot-three-inches of height ‘I’m still convinced that you’ve only ever been a wild-child with me’

‘No, I find it highly entertaining that, while most women prefer to minimise the number of their past lovers, you want to claim more,’ he drawled, smooth as silk

Sweet sensation gripped her while his knowingand teasing her sensitised flesh until she er, he probed the slick, elco her under hied into her hard and fast, and her eager body rose toas a fire inside her He pleasured her with long, forceful strokes, pushing back her knees to gain even deeper penetration She felt like she had hitched a ride to the stars, and the spellbinding pleasure devoured her She heard herself cry out and buck under hih her In the sheer power of that sensual conflagration, she was helpless and mindless in her response He slammed into her one last time with an uninhibited shout of satisfaction

For a tiht, the pound of his heart and the rasp of his breath At that instant she felt as she often did, overwhel pleasure But not so overwhelmed by physical sensation that she didn’t enjoy the brush of hisof his powerful ar He didn’t do hugs, but she lived in hope She loved what he did to her in bed, but she loved the closeness in the aftermath even more, and never, ever stirred a muscle to break their connection before he did
