They’re blue. But a dark blue, like the ocean in a storm.
They’re eyes I can get lost in. That can suck me into a whirlpool and land me at the bottom of the sea.
And I can’t help it.
I grab her off the bed and crush my lips to hers.

BIANCA
He’s kissing me.
He’s kissing me.
And I’m… I’m letting him.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been kissed by a man who’s not paying to kiss me. I tried dating when I first came to Chicago, but I couldn’t get into the scene. I figured it would be the same as New York City, but it’s an entirely different culture. It doesn’t help that people essentially go into hibernation every winter here.
But wait…
I break away from him, our lips smacking as they part.
“Mr. Calloway,” I say on a breath.
He grins. “It’s O’Rourke.”
I shake my head. “No. The man who was with me. We have to…”
He shrugs. “He’s not going anywhere.”
I should smack him for speaking so callously about the dead. He’s a doctor. A healer. This should be killing him.
Instead I just gaze into his dark eyes, my mouth dropped open like a codfish.
And I don’t give a flying fuck about Cale Calloway.
I bring my lips back to his.
The kiss is three times as passionate as the first, our lips grinding against each other with a primal urgency, our tongues clashing.
I run my hand through his hair.
The bedsheet I was holding around myself falls, exposing my breasts.
Quick as a flash, he cups one in his strong, steady hand, brushing his thumb over my nipple. A volt of electricity races through me. I break the kiss long enough to suck in a breath.
And I look at him. Really look at him, my hand wandering to his shirt, fumbling with his bowtie. I undo a few buttons, caress his hard, muscled pecs.
My God, this man must live at the gym.
Our lips meld together again. I get lost in the kiss, so lost?—
Until he breaks from it, slips off his tux jacket, and rips open the rest of his dress shirt, flinging loose buttons across the floor.
His chest is tanned, and even more muscular than I felt through his shirt, and his nipples are two gorgeous copper coins.
He pulls me toward him. My breasts squish into his hard chest, and all the blood in my body lands between my legs.
