“I don’t really like ball
gowns,” he said, his eyes suddenly darker and smoldering with passion. “I’d
much rather have you naked.”
He lowered his mouth to
hers and kissed her with bruising hunger. He had opened his heart, lowered his
defenses and staked his claim. By God, he wouldn’t back off and he was not
losing her.
She felt his arms close in.
He picked her up, although he never stopped kissing her, and it was an
incredible, dizzying sensation. She’d known she was in love with him, she just
hadn’t realized how deeply and how fast she could keep falling.
He set her down in the
bedroom, pulled her hair aside and bent to suckle her neck. He reached under
her skirt, between her legs and inside her panties to test her wetness. As
always, she was hot and ready for him, and he felt his lust flare. “Who do you
belong to?” he demanded.
Her breath caught and her
nipples hardened with the painful thrill the words caused. “I belong to you.”
He pulled her clothes off, freeing her. She’d never felt so free.
“You will never forget
that,” he promised, looking deeply into her eyes before proving his words.
