ELIZABETH.

I look down at the space between us with reddened cheeks after James’ question, and I shake my eyes as I meet his eyes. "No."

He smiles, burying a hand in my hand while the other goes around my lower back. "Well, you’re about to touch one."

He moves his head forward, snatching my lips in his and I let out a groan in his mouth as I swipe my tongue over his plump lips, pulling the upper one between my teeth and sucking for a good few seconds before I slide my tongue in his mouth.

James keeps my head tilted for easier access to my mouth and soon his mouth disappears down my neck. I shut my eyes and let out a low moan as he decorates my hot neck with kisses down to my throat. He presses a kiss there and my hands move to his shoulder. After a quick kiss to my chin, he takes my mouth again.

He breaks away from the kiss just as I start to run out of breath, and there’s an unfamiliar look in his eyes as he stares down. I understand the slight gesture and move to my feet before him.
