“He won’t help you. He doesn’t get signal out here,” William said in a low voice, coming closer to me again until our bodies were almost touching. “Spit it out, Cinderella, or I’m leaving you up here.”
“Wrong fairy-tale,” I mumbled.
“Three. Two. One.” He stepped back. “Moments gone. Too bad.”
Was he serious?
“Oh, sod off,” I snapped, pushing past him into the room. “You’re doing this deliberately. You know very well what I’m trying to say, and you’re just messing about. It’s not hard to please just fucking kiss me!”
“Gladly.”
I barely had time to register his agreement before his lips swooped down on mine. He cradled the back of my head, holding my body against his with his other arm, and kissed me.
Really kissed me.
His lips were cold but soft, and the stubble from his beard scratched lightly at my lips, making my skin come to life. My hands slid to his waist and around to his back, my fingers splaying, somehow bringing us even closer together.
Every part of my body hummed. There was something so sweetly satisfying about finally knowing what it felt like to be kissed by him, to be held against him like it was the only place I was supposed to be.
We fit together in a way I knew would haunt me.
From our fingers linking to him tucking me against his side to the way our lips swept together, it all made sense.
There was a part of me that was screaming at me to stop, but the part of me that lived deep-down that had recognised him from the start was bouncing in joy.
It was like I knew.
I knew.
Just knew.
That this was the kiss to end all kisses, that no other thing would ever make me feel this floaty and dreamy, nothing else would ever give me that fairy tale feeling like kissing William.
And that was absolutely terrifying.
But I’d deal with that later. For now, I was going to soak it in. I revelled in the fullness of his lips taking mine and sending my head into a spin.
Kissing him was everything I’d thought it would be, but oh-so-much more than that. My imagination paled in comparison as I slid my hands between us and wrapped my arms around his neck, pushing up onto my tiptoes to reach him better.
His hands explored my back and sides, sweeping down my waist to my hips, drawing me closer and closer to him so I could feel what this kiss was doing.
And I knew. I knew what it was doing to him, because it was doing the same to me. The ache between my legs grew as my hormones sparked to life and took over, begging me to remove the stupid clothes between us for more.
Bruce barked from the bottom of the tower, making me jump. William chuckled softly, sliding his hands up my back. He pressed his forehead against mine, and his warm breath danced over my lips as he exhaled.
“You,” he said in the same low tone he’d laughed in. “Have just made a huge mistake, Grace.”
“I have?”
“Letting me kiss you might be the stupidest thing you’ve ever done.”
“Why?”
He tilted his head down, brushing his lips over mine once more. “Because if you want me to let you go when we leave here, you’re going to have to kill me.”
