His kiss was a fire that consumed us both, a primal force that ignited a blaze of desire deep within me. In that stolen moment, it was as if the boundaries of time and space had dissolved, leaving us entwined in a passionate embrace that defied the very fabric of reality.
When he finally pulled away, I was left reeling from the intensity of our kiss. My heart thundered in my chest, a relentless percussion of desire that seemed to echo in the silence of the alley. Every nerve in my body hummed with a fervent need, and my skin felt as if it had caught flame. I found it hard to draw in a breath. It was as if the heat between us had evaporated the very air around us.
As he loomed over me, his towering presence enveloping me within the circle of his large frame, I couldn’t help but feel small and vulnerable. His muscular form radiated strength and power, and as his proximity grew even closer, I could feel the warmth of his body, the contours of his muscles pressing against me with a thrilling insistence.
I drew my lower lip back between my teeth. If I bit down hard enough, I could still feel the lingering ache of his teeth.
“Well, it seems you’ve decided to take a break from biting my lip this time,” I quipped, a mischievous grin playing across my features. I dared to trace my lips with the tip my tongue as his eyes followed, and a dark glint glimmered in his gaze.
A low, dangerous chuckle rumbled from deep within Kane’s chest. His eyes gleamed with a mixture of desire and the unknown. I trembled, nervous jitters flaring up and down my spine.
“You should know something, little one,” he rumbled, and a thrill coursed through my veins straight to my clit. I got the sudden feeling that I was playing with fire, and I was about to get burned. I lifted my chin and stared into those dark, mysterious eyes, trying to figure him out.
“What’s that?” I finally whispered, unable to come up with anything on my own.
With a gentle, possessive touch, his hand reached for my chin, his thumb tracing the curve of my mouth with a tantalizing tenderness. A shiver of desire rippled through me, intensifying the moment between us. The contact was both tender and electrifying, igniting a simmering longing deep within me that threatened to consume my every rational thought.
“These pretty lips aren’t going to be the only thing I’m going to bite tonight,” he growled.
CHAPTER9
Lexie
You’re in way over your head.
I stiffened, the full meaning of his words finally hitting me. Fear waged a fierce battle with desire inside me as Kane’s touch continued to send shivers of longing through my body, yet a nagging voice of caution whispered in the recesses of my mind. There was a shadow of uncertainty that hung over him, and that made my terror rise tenfold.
“Did you wear this pretty outfit for me, Lexie?” he questioned, his voice a husky rumble that sent heat barreling through my veins.
My pussy clenched hard, mostly because he was right. I had deliberately chosen an outfit that I knew would tantalize him, a skirt that clung to my curves, accentuating every sway of my hips, and a top that left just enough to the imagination. The skirt was a deep shade of midnight blue, its fabric flowing with each step, inviting his gaze to linger on the smooth expanse of my legs. The top was a delicate lace creation, its intricate patterns revealing hints of skin beneath it.
“Yes,” I breathed.
“It’s a shame that I’m going to ruin it,” he warned darkly.
I stood there for a long moment, dumbfounded, before my self-preservation finally kicked in. In an effort to defend myself, I pushed against his chest, but it was like trying to push through a brick wall.
“Pleaselet me go,” I whispered, my fear getting the best of me.
“You came out looking for me, Lexie,” he answered, the sound reverberating down to the very pit of my bones.
His voice, a deep and gravely rumble that sent shivers cascading down my spine, had an effect on me that bordered on the supernatural. The resonance of his voice carried with it an irresistible raw power. It seemed to reverberate into the very core of my being.
It left me breathless with want.
“I didn’t…” I began and he shook his head.
“Youwantedme to catch you, little one,” he declared, and my legs turned to molten lava at the sound. His words, delivered with a predatory purr, sent waves of heat coursing through my veins.
The sizzling tension between us escalated with each word he uttered, and I couldn’t help but grapple with the realization that he might be right. My breaths grew shallower, my heart pounding erratically in my chest as my desire for more blazed hotter than ever.
“No,” I whispered, lying straight through my teeth.
He chuckled again, the sound just as perilous, and my stomach coiled with my intensifying nerves. What was he going to do to me?
You went out asking for trouble, and that’s exactly what you found.
Maybe he wasn’t my protector after all. Maybe he was somehow worse than all the other criminals combined? What if they were afraid ofhim?
