I deepen the kiss, breathing her deep into my lungs.
God. I can’t get enough of this woman.
When I turn her into my arms, I don’t break the kiss.
Not even when I lift her and carry her to the bed.
Our mouths are still feasting when I stretch her out on the small mattress below me.
Her hands are trembling as she frames my face, skims my neck, glides her hands down to wrap around my shoulders.
I slip my hand into her hair, tilting her head back so I can explore the sexy lines of her neck. “Love seeing my mark on you, beautiful. I want everyone to know you’re mine.”
She shifts below me, closing her eyes. But not before I catch the sheen riding on her lashes.
“Oh, Lucas…”
There’s so much wrapped up in those two words. More than I can decipher.
I don’t have the skills yet, but I will. I never fail at something I want to do.
And now, after these last twenty-four hours with Camile, I know I want something more. Something real with someone that sees me for who I am.
Her breath stutters as I graze my teeth along her neck. “Fuck, I just want to eat you.”
I lower my mouth to her neck, gliding my tongue and lips over her skin as I slide my hand down her body, cupping her ass, lifting her to me.
When I grind her against my thickening erection, her fingers dig into my shoulders.
She’s watching me when I pull back. Her gaze follows my hands as I pull my shirt off over my head.
A tear slides down her cheek as I undress her.
“You good?”
“I will be…”
I kiss her again. “Talk to me, baby.”
“Just take me, Lucas. I need you one more time.”
ChapterFifty-Three
A skip in my heartbeat follows my plea and slip-up.
One more time.
Damn.Dammit.Now I’ve ruined what might be our last alone time together.
Beast stills above me. A storm of emotion wells up in him with the ferocity of a cyclone.
The stoic lines of his face don’t betray his emotion. Or the intensity of his eyes. It’s in the way his breathing changes. A sharp inhale. A pained exhale. “This is the last time I get to have you, isn’t it?”
For a heartbeat, an agonizing thought sears through me.Am I wrong about walking away?
Nothing good has ever happened for me. Why would my luck change now? Could the stars be lined up for us?
No.
