"Kiss me," he breathed thickly.
Belle did not hesitate, she moved forward and pressed her mouth to his. She then tentatively wrapped her arms around him, the gauzy drape coming around his neck.
She tasted like warm honey as she kissed him, an incredible sweetness that made him press himself against her, knowing well enough he might not get the chance to do this again in weeks.
Rohan recognized her growing arousal as she pressed herself into him, but it wasn't about his own pleasure this time. He needed to bring that flushed, hungry look to her eyes, the one he longed to capture on canvas.
He slid his broad knee between her legs, coaxing her forward with a deep, lingering kiss. Then, gripping her gently but firmly by the buttocks, he boosted her up until she trustingly straddled his thigh. When their eyes met in that position, it felt like a slowly rising fire, burning even hotter between them.
