Alicia gathered every ounce of stubbornness she could muster to keep herself from asking him to just… kiss her. But even that was not enough.
The temptation that was Ezekiel was too strong, and she was helpless in the face of his head-on attacks. His smouldering gaze, his thumb on her lips, their skin-to-skin contact… the increasing charge between them was so palpable that it was threatening to blow up any second now. It was all just too unbearable for Alicia to endure. She just wanted to scream out to him to go ahead and ravage her. And that thought caused her to jolt in surprise – at herself and how wanton her thoughts have become.
