Before she knew what was happening, he was kissing her. Just like that. As if he had every reason and right in the world to do so. And not small kisses of comfort on her cheek and eyes as he used to do when she was younger, but deep kisses, filled with longing and desire. The very suddenness and unexpectedness of it all prevented her from putting up any sort of guard against him, and seven years of estrangement dissolved in an instant.
Everything about him was so familiar. His hard mouth, his skillful lips--she remembered and responded to it all. He tasted of brandy, fire, and danger, even more danger than she'd felt earlier tonight when they were being shot at. But she was unable to do anything but return his kisses with an ever-increasing fervor. She hadn't felt this way in so long, as if there were nothing in the world more important than this moment. His darkly erotic scent was like an aphrodisiac to her, making her weaker until she was clinging to him, making her stronger until she was wordlessly demanding more.
Her hand slipped along his shoulder to the back of his neck. Then, sliding off the hand that held his hair, her fingers glided up to bring his lips down on hers harder. It worked. Thank God, it worked. He thrust his tongue, reaching deep into her mouth until she moaned with satisfaction. Heat gathered in all parts of her, burning away her bad memories, liquefying her bones and her resolve.
