As she well knew. On their wedding night, he’d kissed every inch of her, doing a leisurely survey, as she had lain on black satin sheets, the petals from the roses that he’d hastily procured for their ceremony haphazardly scattered around them.
He’d used the petals to tickle and arouse her until she’d moaned and writhed, practically panting for him to take her.
He’d been equally affected. His heart had beat hard and fast, and when he’d slid inside her, there hadn’t been a moment’s doubt about how much he wanted her.
It had been the most decadent thing she’d ever done in her life.
Colin’s lips moved. “You look practically slumberous.”
She jerked her gaze upward and then felt red-hot heat stain her cheeks.
He looked amused but intent. “What were you thinking about? Remembering the last time we were in Vegas?”
Remember? She could feel him in every pore, like an airy caress.
“It was a mistake,” she said automatically.
“How do you know?” he responded. “You refuse to test the proposition.”
“I don’t need to touch fire again to know I’ll get burned.”
She realized instantly that her analogy was off, because his eyes kindled.
“Interesting choice of words,” he murmured. “Is that what we were? Did we go up in smoke?”
“I didn’t say—”
He rested his finger against her lips, stopping her words.
They both went still, searching each other’s eyes.
He lowered his hand only to
trail his finger down her chin and then her throat, in a light caress.
He slid his hand to cup the side of her neck, and his thumb found and came to rest on her pulse.
The rapid beat of her heart was a giveaway as to how affected she was, and they both knew it.
“It was good, wasn’t it?” he asked, rubbing soothingly over her rapid pulse. “The best sex ever.”
She swallowed, and her lips parted. She had tried not to think about it, but yes, it had been the most sensational night of her life.
“Should I feel flattered?” she challenged.
He laughed. “Maybe lucky is more like it, since similar nights can be yours for free.”
“Everything has a price.”
“I’m willing to keep paying.”
“And what will I have to pay?”
“Next to nothing compared to what you’ll receive…and what we can create together. What we have created together, remember?”
She sucked in a breath. “It was Vegas. It makes you do crazy things.”
“We’re back here, breathing the same air. And it’s our anniversary.”
