His
gaze drops to my lips, and I am suddenly and painfully aware of his
body pressed tightly against mine, his arms around me, and his
heartbeat quickening, as if it’s oblivious to the fact the danger
has passed. I’ve never been this close to him, never seen his eyes
so dark, never imagined I would feel the power thrumming through his
body. Because aren’t predators supposed to kill?
Unspent
adrenaline screams through my veins, turning my legs liquid. I ache
with a desire I shouldn’t feel. A painful, desperate hunger for a
man I should not want—a man whose violent nature both arouses and
frightens me.
“Ray...”
His name is a whispered plea on my lips.
He
threads his hand through my hair, tugging my head back so hard my
eyes tear, but I have never felt such pleasure in pain.
“Christ.
I’m barely in control as it is.”
A
soft moan escapes my lips. I am hot—so hot, I might combust— and
before I can stop myself, I rock up, thread my hands through his
hair, and touch my lips to his in a gentle kiss.
Ray
stiffens and growls, the sound vibrating through my chest. He deepens
the kiss, his tongue sliding between my lips to explore every inch of
my mouth. My heart speeds to double time, but it is the way he holds
me still—one hand tangled in my hair, his other hand firm around my
back—that sends a wave of liquid heat through my veins. His lips
are firm and demanding, forcing my mouth open as his tongue plunges
deeper, stroking me into oblivion. Possessive. Demanding. Unyielding.
A Predator’s kiss.
Sliding
my hands over his magnificent chest, taut and hard, and then along
his broad shoulders, I drink him in with a never-ending thirst. Hot
and hungry, my tongue tangles with his, questing, seeking, wanting
more as I grind my hips against his thigh in an entirely uncharacteristic display of need.
My
actions inflame him. In one smooth movement, he spins us and backs me
into the cold, brick wall. His arm tightens so hard I can barely
breathe. And then he ravages my mouth, his tongue questing deep, as
if he has lost control and the beast within will settle for nothing
less than devouring me.
I
have never really, truly been kissed.
Until now.
I feel him with
every inch of my skin, every breath I take. My breasts ache for his
touch, my clit throbs for his attention, and my heart pounds in
warning.
But
when I moan into his mouth, he tenses and pulls away. “Condition
I’m in now...it’s like after a fight...I got no gentleness in
me.”
Bloodlust.
The aftereffect of a fight. The edge of control. But I have watched
Ray for so long, lusted after him for so many nights, imagined I was
the one in the ring pinned to the mat, I do the unthinkable and lean
up and nip his lip. Hard.
