She brought my knuckles up to her mouth and pressed a light kiss there, taking me off guard. When she cupped the back of my neck and tugged me down to her waiting mouth, I wasn’t ready. Her lips slid against mine in a warm, firm kiss my brain was too fucking stupefied to respond to. Catherine kissed me, and all I did was stand there. Just stood there. Unmoving. Unresponsive. Un-fucking-able to think.
