1 " I’ve wanted to touch you all week.” I confessed. “Wanted to hold you all week. Wanted to climb into your big bed and hold you so you weren’t alone.” He was beautiful with his slow blinking eyes on me as he leaned into my hand.

“God. Just put your fucking hands on me, Hennessy. I can’t stand being this far away from you any longer.”

14 " His kiss was immediate, ruthless, frantic, greedy.
Our lips pressed against each other’s, shaping, nipping, lapping.
His lips didn’t ask for permission for me to open, he demanded, and I gave, using both hands to shape the sides of his head in case he had the crazy idea of stopping.

His tongue drove me fucking crazy in a smooth, slick glide over mine until the only emotion I could feel thumping through my toffee-like veins was starved hunger. "
