God, he feels incredible.
The girl sighed contentedly, her eyes still shut tight.
Even without a point of comparison, she was absolutely certain his physique was unparalleled among men.
Gonzalez caught her roaming hand, his voice instantly dropping an octave, raspy and tight. "You're not asleep?"
"I'm awake," Norah mumbled, her voice thick and sweet with sleep.
Gonzalez slid down the mattress, cupping her face to kiss her. She always carried a faint, milky-sweet scent that had nothing to do with body wash or expensive lotions. It was purely her own natural fragrance.
And it was an intoxicating scent that never failed to make his blood run hot and shatter his famed self-control.
She was like a beautiful, lethal narcotic. Even knowing she was addictive, and knowing the agonizing withdrawal that would follow, he still couldn't resist partaking.
A long, breathless moment passed before Gonzalez forced himself to pull back. His voice was devastatingly deep and gravelly. "Norah, go to sleep."
Norah's slender fingers tightened their grip on his shirt. "Turn off the light," she whispered softly.
Gonzalez reached over and flicked the bedside lamp off.
A second later, bathed only in the dim, silvery glow of the moonlight slipping through the curtains, he watched Norah shed her clothes. His breath hitched violently in his throat, his dark, predatory gaze fixed entirely on her stunning curves.
Norah nestled into his chest. In the shadows, her beautiful face burned furiously, and her breath came in shallow, nervous pants. "Didn't you say you wanted to wait until we had official status?"
Gonzalez stopped breathing altogether. His Adam's apple bobbed sharply, and the hands gripping her slender waist felt scorching hot.
Norah pressed a kiss to the pulse point on his neck—shy, yet incredibly daring.
All hesitation vanished. Gonzalez rolled over, pinning her beneath him. As much as he was consumed by raw, urgent hunger, he fought to maintain a brutal leash on his restraint, blazing a trail of searing kisses down her skin.
His breathing grew heavy and ragged as the suffocating wave of desire and tension swallowed them both. Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs. The dizzying anticipation of the unknown completely wrecked her breathing rhythm.
It wasn't until the absolute point of no return that she realized just how terrifyingly nervous she was; her hands were visibly trembling.
