“No, you’re not hurt there,” he murmurs, his breath stealing over my face and wrapping around my neck like a vise. I can’t move, and I don’t want to, because his lips are cascading down my jaw.
“No hurts there, either,” he murmurs.
All I can do is feel as my body reacts. My heart’s pounding on my ribs like the Big Bad Wolf.Little pig, little pig, let me in?Or in this case, out.
Pinpricks of desire dance on my flesh as Devlin tips my head gently and brushes his lips up the opposite jawline.
“Looks good here.”
And then something takes over me. It’s aliens, obviously, because I dare to point my finger at my cheek. “What about here?”
He kisses my cheek, and my entire body awakens like I’m Sleeping Beauty and I’ve been kept under a glass case for ahundred years, my body collecting dust while the world kept right on spinning.
But I’m no longer in stasis. I’m up, and my body’s on fire. “What about here?” I point to my nose.
Devlin caresses the spot with his lips. “All good.”
And then I do it. My heart’s ping-ponging in my chest as I point to my lips. “What about here?”
What are you doing?My body screams at me.Mayday! Mayday! All hands on deck while Blair gets her heart crushed.
My mind might be yelling at me to think this through, to stop what I’m doing, but my body is pushing me closer and closer to the cliff that is Devlin Ross and I want to jump right on off it and kiss him.
My gosh, those soft lips and those strong hands as he holds me gently are just about enough to give me an orgasm right here and now.
His gaze darts to my lips, and for a moment I think he’s going to back off, but instead he says, “Let me see.”
And then his lips brush mine, slowly cascading over them like a feather before leaving them for greener pastures. But then they return, brushing against my mouth in the opposite direction.
A moan escapes me, and Devlin’s hold becomes firmer. He presses his chest against mine and my body jolts.
I melt against him and grip his waist as his lips meet mine again. This time he kisses me slowly, gently, his tongue teasing my mouth apart, and I let him.
I let my entire self dissolve as his tongue sweeps into my mouth, exploring.
Devlin moans into me, and that sends a pulse of desire straight down to my groin. I can’t even remember why I’m letting him kiss me. Because it feels good?
It definitely feels good. It feels better than good.
I curl my fingers into his hips and tug him closer until he’s completely pressed against me, until his entire body’s heat has wrapped around me and I can’t tell where he ends and I begin.
His kiss deepens, and I willingly oblige, giving back all the same passion that he’s giving me.
His fingers scrape up the back of my neck as mine run up his chest and grip his lapels.
I remember what kissing him was like, how it was so easy to lose myself in Devlin Ross. It’s why I lost my virginity to him. He was my first love, and if I’m being completely honest with myself, he’s been my only love.
And right now, in this moment, I have him all to myself.
And I want everything that he’s willing to give me.
He breaks the kiss and runs his mouth down my neck. I tip my head back and savor the feel of his lips against my flesh.
My entire body’s on fire. I want to rip off his shirt and jump him right there.
“Should we go to the bedroom?” I whisper.
His lips stop moving, and Devlin’s entire body stiffens. Wait. What’d I do? What’d I say?
