“Kiss me,” Mary said, her voice barely a whisper.
“Wha—what?” Cairn frowned. He looked at her like she was crazy. A demon. A demon was looking at her like she was crazy. And maybe she was. But still— “Kiss me.”
She stepped inside the circle, tilting her head to meet his gaze and said it a third time, louder, her breath stirring his hair. “Kiss me.”
With a growl, he pulled her against him. His lips crushed hers. The force of his kiss bent her backward like a bow, but he supported her weight. His heat branded her frozen body, marking her where they touched, setting her nerves alight in the most delicious ways.
His fingers tangled in her hair, his chest hard against hers, thigh to thigh. She felt him grow hard, his manhood pressing against her, throbbing between them. She wrapped her fingers, still stiff and clumsy from the cold, around it through his robe, and moaned at the sensations his intake of breath stirred in her. If she were a cat, she would purr.
He deepened their kiss and she felt his fangs press through their lips, reminding her he wasn’t just a man, and the thrill of danger that coursed through her made her ache with want.
Cairn growled again and pulled back on her hair, arching her neck. He trailed sucking, nibbling kisses down her throat to her collarbone, wiping conscious thought from her mind and coaxing a moan from her lips.
