The world blurred around me, lost between shadows and the heat of his body. My back sank deeper into the mattress as his weight settled above me, careful, controlled, yet trembling with restraint.
As his bare skin came in contact with mine, I shivered. He just undressed, but the room was too dark for me to see his fine body. And even though I felt my fingers twitching to touch him, feel him... I kept them by my sides.
The mate bond was pulsing between us like a living thing, humming louder with every breath. My heart was racing, drowning out the faint creak of the bed as he aligned himself closer.
I gasped when I felt him, hard and burning against me, pressing insistently against the my inner thighs. My legs trembled, instinct making them part and inviting him without words.
His lips brushed my cheek, then moved lower, ghosting over my jaw as if he couldn't decide whether to kiss me or simply breathe me in.
