Her breath caught on the thickness of it and the heat in his eyes as he came to her, and every nerve in her body flared to life as his hand closed around the back of her neck and drew her to him.
He kissed her now as though whatever had held him back had fled, as though he had every confidence she would answer in kind. And she did, allowing herself to fall under the sway of the sensation with a soft cry. Always before she had resisted letting herself be overcome by it, but not tonight.
