I had no clue what came over me. Aria was there. So close. Her scent had taken over all aspects of my senses. Her beautiful eyes looked up at me the way they used to, and I was transported to a different place… a different time… and then I saw the tiny speck of hot chocolate sitting upon the edge of her lips, and I could not resist. Maybe that made me a weaker man than I should have been...
I could feel her heart thumping heavily underneath me where I leaned to reach her, which only fed my need for her. She wanted me? Or some part of her had to, didn’t it? To cause that sort of reaction, right? And as my tongue teased along her lips, there was a whimper deep within my mind, telling me that Ciro had awoken, making me move back suddenly, just as I was sure Aria was going to move forward. Ha
