pulled Danni away from the window, slowly turning her to face me.
She planted her hand against my chest, every part of her body tense. When she fisted her hand around my shirt, leaning in closer, I dropped my head until our lips were only centimeters away. “Didn’t you tell me that you’re a dangerous man?” she whispered the question, her breath cascading across my neck.
“I did and I am.”
“Then what am I doing around you, Mustang?”
I tightened my hold, cocking my head slightly. “That’s a question only you can answer.” The second I pressed my lips against hers, she rose onto her tiptoes, leaning in even more, our bodies electrified. There was nothing like the taste of her. So damn sweet. So inviting. I would never be able to get enough of her.
Yanking her away from the window, I slid my hand down her back, cupping her bottom, able to feel her trembles through the rough pads of my fingers. While I attempted to keep the kiss subtle, perhaps even reassuring, I was unable to hold back the beast crawling within me. The woman ignited the fire to the point I could lose control.
The moment the embrace became more intense, she ground her hips against mine, moaning into the kiss. I swept my tongue over hers, the delicate play almost immediately turning into a manic roar of hunger. There was no holding back, no concept of controlling the almost desperate need I felt for her.
As I dominated her tongue, the mixture of whiskey and a hint of cinnamon embroiling my senses, I slipped my hand under her pajama top. The feel of her heated skin on my fingertips was just as electrifying as the way she felt in my arms. After a few seconds, she jerked at my shirt, struggling to get her hands between us, ripping until the sound of buttons popping could be heard.
I pushed back, snagging her lower lip in my mouth before rearing back with a series of growls.
Her chest rising and falling, she stared at me, her eyes glistening in the subtle light. But there was no doubt about the twinkle in her eyes, the way her entire body quivered.
“Damn it, woman. I want you and I am going to take you.” I no longer cared whether my tone was dominating, or whether she hungered the same way I did. This was all about devouring her, taking exactly what I hungered for.
Danni’s mouth twisted as she gazed up at me. When I tossed her over my shoulder, she moaned. I stormed toward the hallway, finding her bedroom immediately. As I eased her to the floor, the moonlight streaming in through the open blinds, I was able to see the glimmer in her eyes seconds before she ripped away the rest of my shirt, dragging it over my shoulders.
When she managed to yank it to the floor, I found it difficult to breathe. The second she placed her hands on my chest, using the tips of her fingers to knead my skin, the flash of heat was almost blinding. The ravenous beast in me took over. Within seconds, I pulled her pajama top over her head, pitching the unwanted material. When I struggled to remove the bottoms, she pulled away from me, finishing undressing.
There was nothing quite like seeing her gorgeous naked body standing in front of me as she swayed back and forth.
I advanced like a true predator, cupping both sides of her face. As I tipped her head back in the moonlight, the feel of her skin was enough to create a firestorm. Slowly lowering my head, I rolled one hand down the length of her back, feeling every bone in her spine, tickling her skin. There was nothing like the feel of her, the way she reacted as I slid my fingertip down the crack of her ass. I wanted nothing more than to take her in her tight little asshole, filling her with my seed.
And I would.
With an exaggerated ragged breath, she brushed her fingers down my arms, shifting them to my hips as she rose onto her toes. Damn, the woman remained defiant, as if nothing I said or do would give her permission to surrender.
“You don’t own me,” she whispered.
“Yeah? That’s where you are wrong.”
“You obviously overestimate yourself.”
She blew a swath of hot air across my chest, purring when she lifted her head, the smile on her face utterly mischievous. I sucked in my breath and released my hold, struggling
