Heartless Hunter (Crimson Moth, #1)

by Kristen Ciccarelli

Gideon needed to get Harrow’s voice out of his head, because the thought of being between Rune’s thighs made him stop halfway up the stairs, overcome. He pinned her against the wall, breathing hard as he debated unhooking her legs from around his waist, dropping to his knees, and going down on her right here in the stairwell. No, he thought as Rune nipped his throat, struggling to regain his senses. You don’t even know what she likes. She might not even know what she likes. Gideon still didn’t know if she’d ever done what they were about to do. Start in the bed, he told himself, bringing her the rest of the way to the second floor, where he opened the door to his apartment and carried her inside. He would start there, and if he proved himself worthy of her, maybe this could be more than a game. Not just flirting and kissing and courting, but a life shared. Maybe Gideon could have all of her. But would she want all of him? He was terrified to even hope for it. Start in the bed.
