Excerpt
The
Kiss in the Library
“I
got one last request, and I’ll never ask again,” Leo said.
“What?”
I croaked out.
He
set his books on a shelf and then took mine and set them beside his. He tugged
me to him until our chests were touching.
“What
are you doing?” I mumbled in confusion.
He
put his hands on either side of my face and slid them into my hair, letting out
a breath as if in relief. “Just saying goodbye, Nora.”
“You’re
going to kiss me?” I asked, tears pricking my eyes at the sadness in his face.
“Please,
just this last time, Buttercup,” he said.
And
with that one word, I was his.
He
lowered his head, his gaze holding me captive. When our lips touched, his
heated eyes stayed open and mine did, too. My mouth melted into his, moaning as
his hot tongue explored the details of my tongue, my teeth, my lips. We started
slow but it escalated rapidly, the passion between us burning higher and
higher. He owned me with his mouth, and I was lost.
I
palmed his ass, grinding myself against him. He hissed at the increased
pressure and pushed me back against the sturdy bookshelf, positioning me so his
hips fit into my pelvis. I lifted one of my legs, and he caught it and wrapped
it around him.
“Say
my name,” he muttered gruffly as I sucked hard at his neck. He grunted, and I
dug my nails into his back as I kissed my way around his collarbone, sucking
another spot.
“Say it, Nora.”
“Leo,
Leo, Leo,” I pleaded, arching my back and pushing into him.
He
shuddered. “Fucking love that,” he whispered.
He placed his lips back on mine, dominating my
mouth, like a man starved. All I could think about was him, him,
him . . . his lips, his tongue, his taste, his butterscotch
smell. I wanted all of him, and I’d never have him, and that thought made me
frantic. I gripped him tighter, pushed my nails deeper, and kissed him harder.
I
never wanted to say goodbye.
