“What?” she asked.
“This.”
He stalked forward, grabbed her, and crushed his mouth to hers.
Chapter Six
Sydney couldn’t let this happen. She knew that, in her rational mind.
Problem was, her rational mind didn’t control this part of her.
Right now she wanted this kiss. Wanted Sam with an astounding passion that surprised even her.
When he ripped his mouth from hers, she whimpered at the loss, but his nips and kisses on the nape of her neck soothed her.
“Oh God,” she whispered.
“I want you,” he said against her neck. “I want you so much.”
“I want you too.”
Sam pressed his mouth on hers again. The kiss was demanding this time, almost punishing. He took from her, marked her.
When he paused to take a breath, his gaze penetrated her. For a second, she could actually feel it boring beneath her skin.
“Why?” he said. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Her tummy plummeted. “What?”
“That you were engaged? I thought we had something special. Last night was just as amazing as it was five years ago. Can you stand there and tell me you didn’t feel something?”
She gulped. Shook her head. “I felt a lot. I… You have no idea how much I felt.”
“Why did you do it?”
She averted her gaze. “I don’t know.”
That was a lie. She did know. She could at least tell him that much.
He cupped her cheek and returned her gaze to his. “Look at me, damnit.”
“I’m sorry,” she choked out. “I do know why I did it. I did it because I wanted you. Because I’ve never forgotten what it was like with you.”
“But your fiancé—”
“Is gone. I broke up with him this morning.”
“Don’t you mean he broke up with you? I’m sure you had a hell of a time explaining who I was.”
“Actually, no. I did the breaking up. I had planned to do it before I came here but I didn’t. I‘m not sure why. But I did it this morning. He was willing to forget the whole thing.”
Sam arched his eyebrows. “What?”
“That’s the kind of guy he is. It was never going to be a marriage in the real sense. I never even had sex with him.”
“What?” Sam said again.
“I never had sex with him. I told him I was saving myself for marriage. I haven’t had sex with anyone since—” She clamped her hand over her mouth.
