I closed my eyes and stifled a moan as he dragged his mouth up my neck,

inch by inch. Just as the lazy possessiveness of his touch lulled me into a

semi-stupor, he yanked me toward him with one hand and sank his teeth into

the curve between my neck and shoulder. Hard. Almost as hard as the thick

arousal pressing against my stomach and causing my core to throb with need.

Rhys’s other hand clamped over my mouth, muffling my surprised yelp.

“Tell me.” His voice lowered. “What would your boyfriend think about

But somehow, the danger only intensified the thrill running through my

veins. Whatever this was between us, it had been building since the moment

Rhys stepped out of his car outside my house at Thayer, and I couldn’t stop it

even if I wanted to.

Rhys hissed out a breath and released my throat, only to curl his hand

around the back of my neck. He yanked me to him again, crushing my mouth

to his, and my world imploded.
