Page 28 of Her Pride

She pulls herself close.

My arms hang down, and I don’t even know where my body ends and begins at this point.

She bends down.

And her lips meet mine.

I close my eyes as a lightning bolt rushes through me.

My legs feel like pudding.

I have never kissed anyone before.

What I feel right now consumes my body, and I let it.

My hands shoot up. I somehow want to touch her, hold her close, never let go of the feeling.

The tips of my fingers hover over her chest.

I can’t bring myself to touch her.

I don’t know what to do.

I would break the dam between her and me.

Decisions. Bloody decisions.

“Do it,” she orders me in a demanding whisper against my lips.

And I do.

It is so easy to just do what she tells me to.

I rest my hands on her chest, and the moment I do, my stomach flutters. It feels so unbelievably good.

Her other hand grasps my neck, and she pulls me even closer. Her body pressing into mine.

There is so much longing.

A moan escapes my throat.

One, that scares the hell out of me.

My body tenses, and I freeze.

What am I doing here?

Kissing a woman who is more than double my age?

A woman who lives in an entirely different world?

This is so stupid.

This can never work.

The moment my mind is back on, everything gets rigid.

I lost myself for a moment.
