To Kill an Angel (Blood Like Poison 3) - Page 22

When he reached for the button of his jeans, he paused. My eyes flew to his and I saw the blaze of my own desire reflected there, scorching in its heat and intensity.

The grate of metal teeth drew my eyes back down. I was immediately mesmerized by the play of muscles in Bo’s arms and abdomen as he unzipped his jeans and bent to remove his shoes. When he straightened, he didn’t take off his jeans. Instead he crawled up onto the bed and took my foot in his hand, pressing his lips to the arch. His eyes didn’t leave mine as he licked and nipped his way up the inside of my leg.

When he laid my leg back on the bed, he trailed the fingers of his other hand up the inside of my right thigh, gently spreading my legs so he could stretch out on his bel y between them.

Heat swept through me as I looked down at Bo’s burning eyes where he hovered only inches from the place I needed him most. As I watched, he pul ed his lips back from his razor-sharp teeth and then drove them into the tender skin of my groin. A shower of fire and light exploded inside me and I closed my eyes and let the pleasure consume me.

I could barely breathe, the sensation was so incredible.

The intimacy of it, the bliss of it was so intense that al thought was washed away by wave after wave of ecstasy.

When Bo’s mouth moved from my leg, I felt his lips graze my left hand. I opened my eyes a crack and saw a golden band encircling my ring finger. My befuddled mind wondered over it for just a moment before it returned to Bo as he kissed his way up my body.

Stretching out atop me, Bo nestled his hips between my thighs as his mouth covered mine. I tasted the delicious flavor of my own blood when he slid his tongue between my teeth to tangle with mine.

Shifting his weight to one side, Bo’s knowing fingers teased a trail from my throat to my shoulder where he eased my bra strap down. His lips fol owed the path with feathery kisses al the way to my breast. I couldn’t hold back a moan as his skil ed tongue adored every inch of flesh he revealed.

A liquid heat began to bubble just below my navel. I knew instinctively that this was our moment. This was our time—

the right time.

Reaching behind me, Bo unclasped my bra and quickly dispatched the material. He leaned back, his eyes roving over my bare br**sts causing a flush to spread across my chest.

“You’re so beautiful,” he whispered reverently. “Perfect.”

He bent his head and sprinkled hot kisses al the way from my throat to the flat of my stomach and on to my navel, where he dipped his tongue inside. His fingers slipped beneath the band of my panties and he worked the silky material down my legs until he was once again at my feet.

Tossing my last piece of clothing aside, Bo slid from the bed and stood, worshipping me with his eyes as he pushed his jeans down his legs. He straightened and stood perfectly stil as I raised myself onto my elbows to memorize every detail of his flawless naked form.

I felt as though I would burst when Bo set one knee on the bed and crawled back to me. He eased himself down between my legs, covering my body with his. The feel of his skin shifting against mine sent a gush of steamy desire pouring through me.

Every nerve in my body was screaming out for his touch. I ached in ways I’d never ached before, ached in places I’d never ached before. I was alive with need.

When I opened my mouth to beg, to plead with Bo to put an end to the unbearable want that flooded my body, he smothered my plea with his lips. His kiss was deep and fiery with passion. It drove me to the brink of a need so desperate, a desire so overwhelming that it stole my breath.

Bo’s lips left mine as he positioned himself over me. With an intensity that seemed to singe my very soul, he gazed unblinkingly into my eyes, and in that time, a space no longer than a single heartbeat, our thoughts were one. In my head, I heard a word as if we’d both spoken it aloud.

“Forever” echoed through my mind and through my heart as Bo joined his body to mine in one smooth motion.

With that one action, in that one moment of the most intense ecstasy I’d ever experienced, he sealed our fates.

He sealed our fates, our bodies, our lives, our love and our future.

We delighted in each other’s bodies for what seemed like hours before we rested. It was as my body was floating back down to earth from the clouds that I became aware of Bo rubbing my ring finger. Slowly, I opened my eyes.

There, poised over me with his weight resting on his forearms, was Bo. He had my hand in his, brushing his thumb back and forth over the empty space below the knuckle of my left fourth finger. When he raised his eyes to mine, there was stil passion in them, passion I could clearly remember us slaking only moments before. Or had we?

Bo opened his mouth as if to say something, but then closed it with a snap of his teeth. When I saw the wetness of my blood stil glistening on his lips, I became even more confused, different memories col iding in my mind and wrestling for the truth, for reality. Raising my head, I glanced down between our bodies and saw that my bra was stil intact, stil hiding my nakedness from Bo’s gaze.

I lay my head back down and my eyes met Bo’s again.

We looked questioningly at one another.

“What just happened?” I asked in a whisper.

“Did you see it, too?” he inquired, his voice husky with desire.

“Yes, I saw it. And- and I felt it, too,” I confessed, feeling suddenly shy.

One side of Bo’s mouth pul ed up into a satisfied grin.

“So did I.”

I felt a flush of warmth suffuse the skin of my cheeks and I couldn’t quel the nervous giggle that bubbled in my throat.

“I- I don’t understand,” I admitted.

Bo shrugged, shaking his head in amazement.

“Neither do I.”

“Maybe it’s because we drank each other’s blood.”

“But we’ve done that before and never had this happen.”

“True,” I said, chewing my lip in thought. “Of course, I wasn’t a vampire then.”

“Good point. Maybe our connection is just getting stronger,” he said, shifting his weight to one side and brushing a strand of hair from my cheek with one hand.

“We’re destined to be together. That’s just more proof.”

“Maybe,” I answered agreeably.

I knew that my attempt to be casual was a miserable failure. It was undoubtedly belied by the smile that I felt wrinkle the corners of my eyes and beam out at Bo from my face. But I couldn’t help it. To hear Bo speaking about our destiny, about our lives as if they were forever joined by divine wil was like pouring sweet, warm honey al over my heart.
