For the first time, I
leaned over and kissed Aiden. The gentle press of my lips carrying all the
words I knew he wouldn’t hear if I spoke them. Bit by bit he softened and my
tongue found its way against his. I stoked a low, warm fire, as we kissed. It
burned between us, crackling with a belied intensity.
His plate tumbled to the
blanket, mine followed, no longer needed. His fingers slid up the sides of my
face, expertly doing away with the pins I’d struggled with. Aiden deepened the
kiss as my hair whooshed down my back.
Blindly I popped open
several buttons of his shirt, my fingers seeking the warmth of his chest. When
Aiden moaned, sultry and sweet, it was my undoing. I’d have let him take me in
the back of the truck. Modesty be damned.
He broke the kiss, his
fingers still tangled in my hair, gasping for breath. He pressed his forehead
against mine, holding me suspended somewhere between arousal and wonderment.
“I’m going to walk you
to your door and you’re going to close it between us.” He slid from the truck,
his body quivering slightly. I’d made him tremble. The empowering fact thrilled
me.
He chastely plucked me
from the bed, placing me on the grass. Disappointment stung when he didn’t hold
me against him, when his fingers didn’t linger.
Self-doubt crept in.
“Did I do something wrong?” My chest tightened, it was the first real move I’d
made between us and now he was ditching me.
“Hell no.” He spun, took
both my hands in his, and brought them to his lips. “I’m going to do right by
you, at least this once. I want you to have something…innocent, from me.”
“You don’t have to do
that, Aiden.” But my heart swelled ten times even as my libido screamed in
defiance.
“I do, for me.” Hand in
hand we walked back to the trailer.
He kissed me once on the
tip of my nose. “Good night, Hadley Jane.”

assorted cast of rescue pets. She lives her own happily ever after
with her soul mate and best friend in the northern part of Alabama
