~ RONAN ~ She nods, a small but certain movement, her eyes soft and trusting. A taste, that's what I told myself. Just one taste of her lips. That's all. But the moment my lips meet hers, that plan falls apart. Her lips are soft, warm, and inviting, reminding me of what it feels like to have adrenaline being pumped into my system, to have my blood gushing hot, to have Kael sinking and swimming in my head, all calm and coy... to have the world disappear before me, to see shooting stars. I kiss her deeper, my mouth crashing against hers with all the hunger I've been holding back. f**k. She tastes even better than I had imagined. Sweet, addictive, and far too easy to lose myself in. I thread my fingers gently into her hair, tilting her head as I slow it down again, savoring every second.
