With a groan she goes up on her tiptoes, her hand using my chest for support as she stretches above me, and I would be a bare-faced liar if I said I wasn’t enjoying thefeel of her hands on me again. She’s so close I can smell the vodka on her breath.

I switch hands, resting my free one at the small of her back to hold her steady. “Isn’t this the one where he does that thing with his tongue-”

“Stop it,” she half laughs, half whines as she climbs my body.

I don’t even think she realises that she’s wrapped her legs around my waist until my hand shifts from her back and lands on her ass to support her. She freezes, sucking in a breath as her eyes land on my face.

My chest heaves under the weight of her stare and suddenly, it’s not so funny anymore. The air between us changes, going from humour-filled to charged within seconds as we watch one another, waiting for the next move.

My eyes move down to her lips as she drags her tongue over them, and I drop my arm, all earlier teasing and the book forgotten. It lands with a soft thud at the very same moment Daisy’s lips crash to mine.

The world tilts.

Fireworks explode.

And my heart beats like a drums in my ears as her soft lips move against mine.

I don’t think, I just react. My tongue snakes it’s way past my lips, seeking entry into her mouth as my other hand grips the side of her face, holding her against me. Daisy brings her arms up, wrapping them around my neck as she drags her nails through my hair, pulling me impossibly closer.

A groan builds in my chest as our tongues move against each other in perfect synchronicity. Like a well-practiced dance, we lose ourselves in one another.

My cock hardens against the zipper of my jeans, and my legs tremble under the weight of the electricity crackling between us.

I turn on the spot and drop down onto the sofa, never tearing my lips from hers. Daisy lands in my lap, her legs falling to either side of mine and she moans against my mouth as her centre connects with the very obvious bulge in my pants.

My fingers dig into her denim-clad ass, and I pull her against me, creating friction where our cores meet. I swallow her desperate whimpers, her hands gripping either side of my face as she grinds her pussy against me.

It’s too much and not enough all in the same breath.

I want more.

Ineedmore of her.

But I can’t be greedy.

One wrong move could break the spell she’s currently under and ruin the entire moment.

Her hips rock back and forth, and I encourage her with my grip on her as she devours my mouth like a woman starved.

The butterflies swarming inside of me makes my stomach flutter. I never thought I’d feel this again. I haven’t wanted to feel this again.

The feel of her body in my hands, her lips on mine, the soft breathy moans vibrating in her throat and the sheer disbelief coursing through me is what leads me to do something monumentally stupid.

I know I’ve fucked up the second the words leave my mouth. “Fuck, I’ve missed you so much.”

CHAPTER 24

DAISY

Ifreeze.

Killian freezes.

Like a big bucket of ice water being dumped over my head, reality comes crashing down on me, effectively dousing the fire that had been raging inside of both of us only seconds ago.

I pull back, blinking down at Killian where he sits beneath me. My legs straddle his, our chests heave in tandem with one another and his swollen lips no doubt mirror mine.

Absentmindedly, my fingers move to my lips. As expected, the violent desperation from our kiss is evident. His eyes are hooded with what I can only describe as longing as he watches my every move.
