finger to her lips and swallowed hard. “I think you know.”

“I don’t know if I—”

“No more.” He cut her off. “We both know that there’s something here. And really, we’re about to be married, Katie.”

“I’m not sure if it’s a good idea…” She was trying to keep her voice light, but Damon knew her well enough to know that she was working to keep it under control. Just as he could feel her body vibrate against his.

“Katie…everything about this is a good idea.” Damon pressed his mouth to hers, and in that instant, everything was right again. Every thought and emotion swirling around in his brain came into crystal-clear focus as his lips crushed hers. It took a moment, but only one—and then she was deliciously, mercifully, kissing him back.

Her arms came up, one hand holding him to her, pressed flat against his back, while her other hand ran through his thick hair. He didn’t even care that they were both sweaty and covered in dirt from their ride. It didn’t matter. Nothing mattered but the taste of her in his mouth.

Damon’s kisses became more insistent and she groaned beneath him. Damn, that was sexy. The little sounds she made and—didn’t even know about—made her absolutely impossible to resist. He moved his kisses to her neck, this time determined to taste more of her because there was no way they were going to be interrupted. What would have happened earlier if the others hadn’t gone back to look for them? He certainly hoped he would find out.

“Damon.” She breathed his name as he moved his kisses to the dip of her V-neck T-shirt and swell of her breasts.

He needed to see her. Touch her. Now.

He pulled away, but only enough to tug her shirt over her head. He tossed it to the side and sucked in a breath at the sight of her. “Damn, girl. When did you get so fucking hot?”

She laughed but then her smile faded and she looked at him seriously. “Are we doing this? Really?”

“Well, we are getting married.”

“Tomorrow.”

“Maybe we should wait until—”

“No.”

The word came out so fast, and with so much ferocity, that Damon couldn’t help but laugh.

“Point taken,” he said. “And I absolutely agree. Waiting until marriage is such an outdated idea.” He bent and sucked her nipple through the thin fabric of her lace bra, while his free hand tweaked the other.

She sighed, and her knees buckled a little. “It really is,” Katie agreed. “So outdated.”

Damon pushed the lace down over her breasts to expose them, plump and perky and so perfect the sight of her made his cock ache. “Dammit, woman. There is no way I can wait until it’s official.” He knew they were both playing and the wedding wasn’t real, but none of that mattered. The only thing that mattered was getting Katie naked, in bed, and beneath him, screaming out in ecstasy.

Without waiting for a reply, he lifted her easily by the hips. She wrapped her legs around his waist and pressed herself into his hardness with a need that made it hard for him to focus. Somehow, Damon managed to walk the short distance into their bedroom and deposit her onto the bed.

She fell back onto the comforter and instantly leaned back on her elbows, pressing her breasts up in show. “Your turn,” she said. Her eyes were hooded and having her look at him with so much desire in those pretty brown eyes almost completely undid him. Almost.

He didn’t need to be asked twice. He also knew he couldn’t move as slowly as he would have liked. With a few quick moves, he stripped himself of his shorts, shoes, and T-shirt, and stood before her, completely exposed.

She didn’t say anything, but her eyes grew wide with appreciation. After a moment, she shook her head.

“What?”

“It’s just…” She bit her bottom lip. “Well, I…I’ve never…I mean I have…but…”

He silenced her and the thoughts she couldn’t verbalize by leaning over her, bracing his body with his arms as he kissed his way down her body, removing the rest of her clothing as he went. First her bra. Her breath caught in her throat as he sucked her nipple, now bare, into his mouth, not releasing it until her breath came hard and fast beneath him. Then he moved his kisses down her flat, toned stomach to the waistband of her shorts. He traced his fingers along the elastic before sliding them down over her hips, taking her panties with them,
