ATTICUS
Her lips are soft, so soft that I’m worried I’ll bruise them, yet every sinful caress from them is making my dick throb.
Oh, how much I truly want her… She has already become an addiction without me even realising when that happened. I’ve kissed women before, but never have I experienced a kiss so perfect as this one.
My tongue caresses hers, making a delicious moan fall from her lips, and I can smell how turned on she is, a scent that only makes me feral. It’s insane, but the urge to just take her right now is so strong. Another delicious moan escapes her, her fingers raking down my abs that only ignite further pleasure.
Our tongues play with one another’s sensually when suddenly she gasps and pulls her head back, breathing hard as her lust-coated eyes linger on my lips, our faces close as our noses brush one another’s. My lips feel extra sensitive, still tingling from the sizzling kiss we have just shared. I want to taste her again.
I know I shouldn’t, but I can’t help but follow my instincts, needing so much more. So I grab the back of her head and kiss her again. Her heart is racing as is my own, and this time she snakes her arms around my shoulders, kissing me back with equal fervour. I caress her waist and hip with one hand, using all my willpower not to let it travel lower.
Goddess, she’s a temptation.
I need to stop now or I won’t be able to at all. With that realisation I break away, peppering her jaw and ear with light kisses. One of her hands caresses the back of my head, the other tightly around her waist, her body moulded against mine and we’re both breathing hard, our hearts thundering with the realisation of what we have just done.
But I also don’t want her to get the wrong idea. Gazing into her gorgeous eyes for a moment, 1 slowly lean down and press my lips against hers, wrapping both my arms around her tightly. ‘As much as I want to continue to kiss you forever, I don’t think this is the appropriate setting to undress you.’
She moves back slowly and looks up at me. A small smirk plays on those lips that I am entirely in love with. “So, you want to undress me?” she asks softly, her fingers caressing the back of my neck.
“Would it be shameless to admit that I have wanted to for a very long time?”
“Yes, it would be,” she replies as she tries to step back.
I smirk slightly. “Then I will just have to be labelled shameless because it’s nothing but the truth.”
I’m rewarded with a small smirk as she tries to brush it off, but my words have definitely gotten to her. I pull her back against me, my hand wrapped around her waist and place one last kiss on her cheek, when suddenly her breath hitches, her heart racing and I try not to tense, worrying why she reacts like that.
Instead, I stand back, gazing down at her. She’s blushing, but it’s the gentleness in her eyes that I’ve not seen before that

gets to me.
Neither of us speaks, as we glance at Ada’s grave for a final time and then turn and make our way back. Neither of us picks up pace, almost as if not wanting to return, in fear that this will all suddenly disappear the moment we do. It’s what I fear, anyway.
My hand remains on her waist and at every moment I fear she will pull away from me. When the packhouse comes into view she steps away, and her speed picks up slightly.
“Thanks for coming to Ada’s grave. I’m sure she’d have liked that.”
