The kiss was everything Lia had imagined it would be and so much more. He cupped the nape of her neck, pulling her closer. If anything, the touch of his lips reached all the way through to her heart. Her head tingled with pleasure.When he nudged her legs apart, she complied even as he pressed her backside up against a moss-covered garden wall. He closed the distance between them until the entire length of his body conformed to hers. Through the layers upon layers of their clothing, she could feel the heat and hardness of him.“Open your mouth, cub.” She parted her lips slightly, allowing his tongue entrance. His spicy flavor, one Lia had never tasted but instantly craved, burned on her tongue.When he stepped back from her, she weaved on legs that had turned to water. “Oh my,” she gasped as she struggled to catch her breath. She’d been kissed before but never so skillfully, never so thoroughly.His was a kiss that had awakened her senses. Unlike any she’d ever experienced, this one felt like a prelude for something more.
