Ilona stood lost in her thoughts when she was suddenly grabbed from behind and spun around. She gasped as she was pushed backward until her back hit the wall beside the door to her cabin.
She had only a moment to see the face of her attacker before his lips were on hers.
Mason.
He pinned Ilona to the wall and kissed her hungrily, one hand cupping her cheek while his other held her hip. Ilona wrapped her arms around his neck, welcoming his kisses and the feeling of his body against hers.
"Your lips," the Prince whispered against her cheek, "How I've longed to taste them... And now I finally know just how sweet they are."
Ilona giggled and leaned her head back as he kissed a trail over her chin and down her neck. It sent a thrill through her.
"I didn't realize I wanted to kiss you until I did," she admitted, "But now I see I've actually wanted to do it for a long time."
