Phoenix growled and his mouth met mine with an eagerness that matched everything building inside me. The desire flooded through me like a wave breaking and I dug my fingers into the back of his neck and held on. This had to be the beginning of my heat. Every single part of me was responding to his touch in a way that had moved well past voluntary.
His hands pressed deeper into my hips, holding me with a firmness that felt extraordinary. Our lips moved against each other and when he pulled my lower lip gently between his teeth I moaned without trying to contain it. His tongue moved against mine and he left small open-mouthed kisses between the deeper ones, tasting me in between, taking his time despite the urgency of everything around us.
