words, her world would shift. She'd drown in him and never find her way back out.
"I want you.” It came out as a soft whisper but the smouldering flames in his eyes grew the minute she said it. She was in his arms the next second, gasping for breath and holding on for dear life as he kissed her stupid.
Their dinner was forgotten, hands clinging to the other as they stumbled into the living room.
She looked up at him when he stopped in the middle of the floor. Her heart pounded against her rib cage. The wood popped and hissed in the fireplace, shadows dancing along the walls, and she took a shaky breath when he dipped his head toward her.
He kissed her jaw, his tongue tasting the skin of her neck, and her eyes closed when his hand found its way inside her shirt.
She took deep breaths to calm her nerves, letting everything go except for what he was doing. The feel of hands on her, the soft brush of his lips, and the hardness of his body against hers left her trembling.
He lifted her shirt, pulling it up her body. She raised her arms and waited.
Devin pulled the material over her head but stopped at her elbows, trapping her arms inside the material. His fingers skimmed her flesh and left a trail of tingles in their wake. He unhooked her bra, lifted it in the same manner he had her shirt and stopped before completely removing the garment.
She stood, arms trapped over her head, bound within her shirt.
The zipper on her jeans was pulled down; the denim sliding over her hips and Holly trembled when he pushed them down her legs, her eyes closing as her breathing increased.
Devin's lips followed the denim, skating over her thighs. “Open your eyes."
She did, looking down at him. He sat on his knees, his gaze roaming her flesh. She felt every sweep across her skin like a soft touch.
He buried his face in her stomach, kissing her flesh, his hands roaming her body and Holly couldn't take her eyes off of him. Devin Shaw was on his knees at her feet, kissing her like she was something precious.
The tremble in her legs started again when he grabbed the side of her panties, pulling them down to pool at her feet with her jeans. She stepped out of them when he lifted her leg and she stood before him, naked, and shivering with anticipation.
Her arms were still over her head. She tried to lower them but stopped when Devin told her not to.
He helped her to her knees before laying her back on the rug.
"Close your eyes and don't move,” he said.
Holly did as asked, gasping softly when she felt the press of his lips on the underside of her left breast. His tongue lapped at it, his hot breath tickling her skin, and her body burned for more.
He sucked her nipple into his mouth, his hand trailing down her body to cup her pussy.
Devin left a trail of hot, wet kisses across her body and soft words she couldn't hear clearly were whispered against her flesh.
He parted her thighs and she tensed.
Not a sound could be heard for long minutes and Holly opened her eyes. Devin sat between her legs, his gaze roaming over her form. He said nothing, just sat there staring at her.
He looked up, locking eyes with her and smiled. It was the most genuine smile she'd seen.
Her left leg was lifted and Devin never broke eye contact with her. He kissed the inside of her knee, his tongue extending to taste her skin. A series of languid kisses caressed her thigh, his lips moving closer to the heat between her legs.
When he reached his destination, Holly watched him. He leaned forward, blew hot air on his treasure, and sucked her into his mouth.
Holly gasped at the first flick of his tongue. Her eyes fluttered, her head falling back to the floor.
He worked her with his lips, his tongue licking at her until she couldn't think, until time stopped and nothing was left but him, and what he was doing to her.
Devin brought her body to the point of rapture before he'd stop, bathe her in soft kisses, and start all over again. She was trembling with need,
