“Do you feel the heat?"
I could feel his hot breath on my ear and it was sending lightning bolts down my body.
"Yes." I said, biting my lower lip.
He grabbed my hips and pulled me closer, nuzzling his face to my ear. "I feel that heat every time I look at you, Scarlett, since the first time I saw you." My breathing picked up speed. "You make me feel things that scare the fuck out of me, but I like the way they make me feel. Can you feel it too, Scarlett?" I could only nod.”
