All from one kiss

One kiss that had led to another date, and then another

By that third date, Marc’s iron control snapped

He was barely able to get through dinner before he tossed down his napkin and stared straight into Maddy’s eyes

“I can’t do coffee and dessert,” he said bluntly “I’ve got to get inside you”

Maddy didn’t bat a lash She folded her napkin neatly, placed it beside her half-eaten meal and rose

“I’ll get et the check I’ll meet you outside in five minutes,” she replied

It took Marc three

They sat apart in the taxi, not even daring to touch each other They both knew that once they did, it would be all over But the sexual tension in the backseat was so thick it was suffocating

By the time Marc kicked her apartment door shut and reached behind hi his shirt Marc finished the job for her, shrugging out of the shirt and tossing it aside

Then he reached for her, pulling her against him

He took her ht theainst hi the kiss He pulled off her clothes as they staggered down the short hall and into her room

They were naked when they hit the bed

Neither of them could withstand the prelientle strokes, no soft words, no tender touches It was fast, and it was hot and it was primal

Afterward, Marc collapsed on top of her Never in his life had he lost control like that, coer He’d barely been able to hold back long enough to feel Maddy unravel beneath him, pulse all around him, cry out his name
