slightly
     that he’d do something so forward, and I felt the nerves flutter in my throat for
     only a second before I shoved them down. I berated myself for being so childish. I
     was a grown, sexual woman who was aching for some male attention. There was no need
     for formality with him.
    Fuck that shit!
    I didn’t get much time for my self-chastisement because Isaac was standing above me,
     looking down on me with such intensity that my pulse automatically skipped a beat.
     He wasn’t touching me, only looking at me. His eyes were hooded and searching my body
     for something that sparked his interest. He must have found what he liked because
     his tongue peeked out for a moment and licked his lips, just like a man would do before
     he devoured something that looked appetizing.
    “I must tell you that I am quite taken with you,” he said in a low tone, dripping
     with promise and hot sex. “I have never been as tempted to break the rules as I am
     with you.”
    I felt his breath skim across my face as he spoke, sending a haze of sensuality over
     me. I could feel the heat of his body warming me as he edged closer, our hips and
     thighs making contact in our tight proximity.
    “And what rule would that be?” I asked, proud that my voice seemed calm even though
     my insides were anything but.
    “The one that forbids me to fuck you senseless right now, making you scream my name
     until your voice is gone for days.”
    I balked—my breath caught in my throat as I automatically took a step back from him—feeling
     my bottom meet the hard marble counter. We had become predator and prey in a matter
     of seconds, and the adrenaline pumping through my veins was simultaneously torturous
     and delicious.
    “A-and that’s breaking the rules?” I managed to squeak out, feeling a sense of fear
     and disappointment at the same time.
    “Unfortunately,” he replied, closing the distance between us so that I was pressed
     up against a rock and a hard place, pun most definitely intended.
    “Pity,” I said, looking at him through my lashes and automatically becoming lost in
     his vivid blue eyes as he reached his hand toward my face.
    “Complete shame,” he agreed, running the tips of his fingers along my cheekbone, down
     to my jaw, and along my chin. The feeling of his skin on mine, however faint, had
     my blood boiling. I wanted more. I needed more.
    I felt his breath on my face as he lowered his head toward mine. He ran his nose along
     my cheek. “But there is nothing in the rules that says I can’t make you come.”
    My breath caught in my throat at his words. His lips were at my earlobe, taking the
     tip of it between his warm lips as his hands wrapped around my shoulders, sending
     chills down my spine.
    “I don’t want you to get into trouble,” I told him, my voice as weak as I felt.
    He laughed. “No one is looking for us. No one will hear us if you are very, very quiet.”
    “I don’t get it,” I said on a whisper, my eyes shutting automatically as his lips
     moved across my neck. His hands were traveling down my body, skimming down the slick
     satin of my dress. “Why is it such a big deal for you to be with me?”
    “Less talking,” he said, and then his lips met mine. My mouth parted, inviting him
     in. His taste finally filled me, and it felt like some kind of drug had entered my
     bloodstream. My heartbeat quickened, my breath left in a gasp. He stole it, completely
     taking my air away with his touch.
    My hands moved on their own, winding their way into the gorgeous head of hair. The
     strands were thick and sturdy, and Isaac didn’t seem to mind when I tugged on them
     a little in an attempt to get him closer to me. He moaned inside my mouth, wrapping
     his arms around my waist as he lifted me onto the bathroom counter. My legs parted,
     wrapping around him so that I could pull him in to me. I felt the burning in my center
     increase tenfold as his body lined up directly where I wanted
