Sweet Silken Bondage

All too late, Clay realized his mistake. Reina slammed
against him, her slender curves pressed intimately close to
his body. He could feel every inch of her as he held her
pinioned and he froze, suddenly achingly aware of her as a
woman.

"Let me go!" Reina seemed to sense a sudden change in
him. She gasped at the intensity she saw in his gaze. "Let
me go, Clay."

"1 can't," he groaned. "Not now. Not when I've finally
found you...."

"No, Clay..." she began to protest, but she had no time
to say more as Clay's mouth descended to hers, claiming her
lips in a demanding kiss. This was no longer Clay, her
captor, but Clay, the man. "Don't..." she whispered in
hoarse protest as his mouth left hers; but he ignored her.

When he bent to seek the sweetness of her throat, a small
whimper escaped her. She shivered at the ecstasy of his
touch. Long-denied passion exploded within her. With a
groan of surrender, she ceased her struggle and melted
willingly against the hard wall of his chest.

Caught up in a maelstrom of need, they drank of each
other, tasting the wine of their desire. After a full, flaming
kiss, Reina murmured his name in almost exquisite agony.

"Clay...

"Ah, Reina," came his answer, and her name was a moan
of pure pleasure. "1 want you more than I've ever wanted
any woman."
