The soap dropped from his hands, and he picked me up in his arms, planting the kind of kiss that made every inch of my skin burn. Before I knew it, he had me against the marble wall, pressing into me. His intensity pulled a gasp from me, and I wrapped my legs around him, pulling him closer. His hardness entered me with such force, I cried out, arching into him with the same frantic need reflected in his ravenous kisses.
We clung to each other, riding a wave of fury and lust and everything in between. His power and possessiveness brought forth my own appetite, and by the time we finished, my back ached. We both panted, trying to regain our breath. I was sure if the wall wasn’t holding us in place, we would have collapsed onto the floor from sheer satisfaction.
On shaking legs, Kyle carried me back under the water, still coupled and kissing. The cool stream slowed our breath and chilled the steam rising between us. He pulled away and tilted his face into the water, looking every bit like a god.
I wasn’t sure this electric bliss between us would continue, or how we would be at ruling this kingdom together, but for a brief moment, being in Kyle’s arms felt like all I would ever need in this world.
His blue gaze dropped to take me in and he smiled. “Happy isn’t so bad,” he whispered, and captured my mouth in another kiss.
