“We are,” I whispered.
“Good.”
Then he kissed me, and in the back of my head, I realized wewere still standing just inside the foyer, but I didn’t care.His kiss startedoff sweet and tender, but I wanted more.So did he.My hands found their way tohis chest, and I could feel his heart beating just as fast as mine.
I broke the kiss, breathing heavily.“Do you want to stay?”
“Hell yeah, but if I…if I do, I’m not leaving tonight.”Histhumbs dragged over my cheeks.“And if I don’t leave tonight, I’m going to beupstairs and I’m going to want to be in that bed and in between those prettythighs of yours.If you don’t want that or you’re not up to it because of lastnight, let me know now.I can wait, but either way, I’m not letting go of youtonight.”
“I’mfine.”There wasn’t a moment of hesitation.“Iwant that.”
Chapter 14
Colton didn’t waste a single moment.
He tilted my head back, lowering his mouth to mine in adeep, demanding kiss that brokered no room for denial.Not that I wanted to.That was the furthest thing from my mind as his tongue tangled with mine.
Backing me up, he kept going until we reached the bottom ofthe stairs; only then did he lift his mouth from mine.Blue eyes met mine, andmy throat dried at the intensity of the passion in them.I turned and made itup three steps before his arm came around me from behind, curling around mywaist.A second later, his front pressed against my back and I could feel himlong and hard against my rear.
“I’m so damn impatient,” he said, placing a kiss against myneck.“That bedroom seems awful far right now.”
My laugh was breathy.“It’s not that far.”
“Fuck it ain’t.”The arm around my waist tightened, sealingour bodies together as he blazed a hot path of tiny kisses down my throat.
Carefully tipping my head back and to the side, I let out asoft moan as his hand drifted up my stomach and cupped my breast through thedress.With unerring expertise, his fingers found the aching tip of my breast.Then I felt his hand between my legs, and the thin, delicate material was nobarrier to his seeking hand on my heat.
Without even thinking, my legs spread, giving him moreaccess, and he took it, pushing the dress in as he cupped me.He pressed hispalm in against the bundle of nerves.My hips jerked, and the sound he made inresponse sent a wave of little bumps over my skin.There was no control.Igripped his wrist with one hand and my other flew out, blindly seeking for therailing.I held on to both as I moved against his hand, grinding, seeking,right there, in the stairway.Pleasure built and swelled, pounding through me.
“Damn,” he groaned, dropping his hand from my breast.“Wearen’t going to make it to the bed if we keep this up.”
“You started this,” I reminded him.
“True.”
Pressing one last kiss to my neck, he backed off.My kneeswere a little wobbly as I started back up the stairs.I was already dazed andbreathless and we hadn’t even reached the bedroom.
The hallway upstairs was lit from the nightstand lamp I’dleft on in the bedroom, and when I turned to glance back at Colton, I foundmyself suddenly pressed against the wall just outside my bedroom, his long andlean body against mine.
“I’m really fucking impatient,” he admitted.
I looped my arms around his neck, giving in to the crazysensations building in me.“Me too.”
Colton kissed me and then pulled back.My arms fell to mysides as I dragged in air.Grabbing the collar of his shirt, he quickly pulledit up and over his head, letting it fall to the floor.
I’d seen him shirtless before, but memory didn’t serve anyjustice.From his well-defined pecs to the way his stomach coiled tightly, hewas an artwork of tone and lean muscles I wanted to touch and taste.
I reached for him, my fingers finding the button on hisjeans, easily flicking them open.I caught the zipper next, and as the materialfolded to the sides, my fingers brushed over the long, thick length strainingagainst his boxers.
“Fuck.”His hands clasped the sides of my face again and thekiss was so much fiercer.Our teeth knocked together.My lips felt bruised, butI reveled in the raw passion.
Pressing me back against the wall, his hips pushed into minein a slow, tantalizing roll that caused me to cry out.His hands slipped downmy throat, over my arms.Pulling me away from the wall, he led me into thebedroom.Only then did he let go of my hands.
“You sure about this?”he asked.
I moved so I stood in front of my bed.“I’m sure.Are you?”
“Never been more sure about anything in my life.”Toeing offhis shoes, he whipped off the socks in record time.“I want you.”
