Sexy Snippet Tuesday: Caressed by the Edge of Darkness

         

~She squared her shoulders and notched her chin up. Regal, stunning, her violet eyes flashed with defiance, challenge. “Was the lowly human to ask for you permission to leave?” She pulled her hair to the side revealing the graceful column of her neck. “Should I play the meek mortal? Let you tap my vein.” Her sensual mouth curled in taunting smile. “My blood, I know you want it, leech.”

Tempting lips. Sexy voice. Bitchy words. Goddamn, he wanted her. “I thought we’d already established, if I wanted your blood I could just take it.” His eyes narrowed. “No. There here is something else I want from you right now.”

He advanced. She didn’t back away. Oh, he loved her spirit. Reveled in it. Vampires shrank from him, but not his mortal. He doubted Jordan could even spell retreat.

She moistened her lips, her tiny teeth catching the dip of her bottom lip. He groaned. He’d nibble and lick that bow for her. As if she could read his thoughts, Jordan responded to him. Pink tinted her high cheekbones her breathes grew heavy and the scent of jasmine intensified.

With unfathomable speed, he lunged. Before she could react, he had her hair wrapped around his first. Their bodies slammed together. Soft curves to unyielding muscle.

He had her pinned against the back of the chaise. They both knew with one swift movement he could have her beneath him.

Gabriel tightened his hold on her hair as he drew his other hand up her body. His gloved fingers skimmed the outside of her thigh, gently brushed over the arch of her hip, caressed her side, lightly tickled her ribcage and stopped. His hand hovered just above her breast.

One heartbeat. Two.

 Jordan pressed forward, her luscious breast fit his palm perfectly. They both groaned and shuddered from the contact.

“You make me crazed,” Gabriel grated. Tilting his head down, her rubbed his face against her hair, inhaling deep.  “I’ve wanted…” He pressed a kiss to the curve of her neck then to her tip of her ear.

She shivered in his arms. He could sense her need, her desire. It matched his own. Strong. Relentless.

He kneaded her breast, her nipple stiffen beneath her shirt. The pearl abraded his palm, taunting him. Gabriel wanted to taste it, to pull it between his lips. Would she like it if he used his teeth…his fangs?

His cock pulsed. He pressed the hard length against her belly. A shocked, delighted gasp seized in her throat. Jordan’s voice trembled as she whispered his name.

Their gaze locked.

She aches for me just as I ache for her. He should stop this. Never had a woman enthralled him so…Never had he craved like this. Mindless.

The mortal, magic-less, powerless, she’d done this to him.

Gabriel released her breast to grip the swell of her hip. He ground his sex against her.

She’d pay. He’d teach her why no one dared tempt a beast.

His vision shifted, his fangs elongated. Yes, he’d show her and he’d take what he wanted.

Pulling her hair, he yanked her head back, exposing her throat. He lean forward and inhaled her scent again, his lungs filled with jasmine and woman. His lips brushed over her pulse, “Beautiful.” He racked his fangs over her pulse then soothed the reddened flesh with his tongue.

Tiny sighs escaped her lips with every kiss he pressed against her neck, her jaw, her cheek.

“Look at me,” he demanded.

She opened her heavy lidded eyes to peer up at him from beneath thick, dark lashes. Her violet gaze glowed with need, her luscious lips parted as her breaths panted, silently begging for him.

When only a whisper separated their lips, he snarled, “I’ve waited.”~
