Their lips met. Their mouths fused as if they were both firing shots over the bow in a take-no-prisoners stance.

Hunger roared through his body, and an aching need to give her back just a tiny fraction of what she was giving him.

Angelina tore herself out of his embrace. “Why did you do that?” she asked him finally.

“Because you wanted me to.” It sounded arrogant put that way, so he added, “Because I wanted to.”

“That is not true.”

“Which? That I wanted to kiss you?” One corner of his mouth twitched upward into an engaging grin. “I wanted to. Oh, yeah, I definitely wanted to, since the first moment I saw you.”

She shook her head. “Not that. You said I wanted you to kiss me. And that is not true.”

Alec’s grin faded, and he held her gaze with his steady one. “Oh, yes you did,” he told her, accepting the truth even if she refused to acknowledge it. “You wanted to know what it would be like. We both did. And now we know.”

And nothing will ever be the same again.
