The kiss began softly, tenderly—each tentative brush of their lips sending electric jolts through Josh's body. But as his passion surged, he deepened the kiss, pushing Ashley against the cool, unforgiving wall behind her. Her back hit the surface with a soft thud, and she gasped against his mouth, the sound encouraging him to let go of his control.
"Ashley," he growled, his voice thick with desire as he wrapped his arms around her, lifting her effortlessly off the ground. She gasped again, this time with a thrill that sent a rush of adrenaline through him. Her legs instinctively wrapped around his waist, her body fitting against him as if they were made for each other.
He pressed his body firmly against her, the heat radiating from their bodies drowning out the world around them. Just for a moment, he allowed himself to indulge in the raw pleasure of the moment, his senses consumed with nothing but her warmth, her scent, and the softness of her body.
