He brushed my hair behind my ear, and I leaned into his hand.

“Lissa. We’ve both been drinking. We shouldn’t do this.”

“Yes, we should.” I wrapped my arms around his neck. He swayed under my arms. “It’s nice.”

We sat there, staring at each other for who knows how long. It felt like static filled the air, waiting to find the right time to discharge. But would it fizzle or shock us into action?

I’d never felt so light after seeing my parents. Thorne was the reason. How much happier did I feel after he moved in with me? Life felt easier than it had in a long while. And he looked so handsome. I wanted to bite him.

He reached over and squeezed my thigh. Lightning shot up my leg and into my core. I leaned in and kissed him. Softly at first, his lips lightly touching mine. I needed more so I gripped the back of his neck and kissed him harder. His arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me closer.

I dug my nails into his shoulder while he pulled me onto his lap, and I opened my mouth for him. Our tongues danced as we kissed. I plunged my tongue deep into his mouth and started sucking on his lips and tongue while holding his face in my hands.

His hands ran up and down my back. I waited for him to dig his fingers into my back, but it never happened. When I came up for air, he licked and kissed down my jaw and neck. I thought about all the marks I’d see tomorrow from his mouth and hands. Something about knowing there would be bruises the next day revved me up.

I looked down at him. Those dark blue eyes were dilated and wide, his face flush, and his lips swollen. And what a beautiful mouth. I wanted it all over every inch of me.

He took a deep breath. “Do you want to slow down?”

I nodded and kissed him again before I sat back on the couch off his lap. I needed to catch my breath.

Both of us panted as we stared into each other’s eyes.

“Are we really doing this?” he asked.

“Yes,” I grinned. “I’d like you to fuck me right now.”

Thorne’s eyes widened, and he choked on whatever he was about to say.

I grinned and licked my lips. “Dat is, if you’re up for it.”

His dark blue eyes widened in shock before they narrowed, and he managed to crawl over me on the narrow couch. He rubbed his nose against mine and took my mouth with his. Damn Thorne looked sexy.

Who knew he was such a good kisser. I swear he could kiss the very soul out of me. I needed to know what his lips could do on other areas of my body.

His hands slid under my back, and I arched into him, feeling his hard dick against my lower stomach. He kissed down my cheek and latched onto my earlobe. It sent chills down my body, and I gasped. My hands found his skin under his shirt and explored the hard angles of his back and chest.

I slipped his shirt over his head and threw it on the floor. His chest was a thing of beauty. Wide shoulders, defined pecs, and abs for days. My hands explored his chest and shoulders until he pulled one of my hands up and kissed my palm. He continued to kiss and lick his way up my arm to my neck. Warm hands lifted up my blouse while caressing my sides.

With my shirt on the floor, he explored my shoulders with his mouth. His tongue twisted around my nipples poking through my bra. I couldn’t arch myself into his mouth enough.

“Off,” I panted. “Take it off.”

It flew across the room, and he continued to suck and lick my nipples. He teased me by moving back and forth between my breasts, flicking each one a few times before moving. I finally held his head down to one side.

“I can’t take the teasing,” I said, staring up at him with hooded eyes.

He grinned around my nipple. “Got it.”

He focused on one breast before moving to the next. I writhed under him; each flick of his tongue sent an electric tingle directly to my clit. The more I tried to rub against him, the more he held me down.

“I can’t take it.” I wrenched his head off my chest. “I need more.”

Thorne pulled me up and kissed me hard on the mouth. “Whatever you say,” he said and proceeded to pull off my skirt and underwear together.

“Hey,” I said while he kissed and nibbled down my stomach toward my mound.

He looked up with wide puppy dog eyes. “You need more, right?”
