Declan slammed her against the brocaded wall, the shadows heavy around them. Behind the wall the sounds of the orchestra's strings could be vaguely heard, the dun of laughter and gaiety floating up the staircase, into the forgotten room.
Adrianne was still unsure to what purpose the room served, only knowing that it was small, dim, hidden. Already she could feel the fire burning inside her, feel the sparks lighting from the trail of kisses he was lining across her collarbone. He reached the tendon in her neck, nipped, and she hissed in anticipation, rather than pain. The pins stuck in her golden brown hair clattered to the floor, little sounds that could only be heard if you were in the room. Little signals that everything else was about to come undone.
She laced her fingers through his dark hair, pulled his face up to hers, and pressed her slender body against him as their lips met. She bit his lower lip, intruded upon the whiskey flavored haven of his mouth. For a moment, she had control.
Declan pushed her back against the wall, his hands already lifting the voluminous spreads of her chiffon skirts, his fingers itching to trace the silk covered lengths of her long, slender legs, to reach her heat at the center of her. At the intrusion of her tongue into his mouth, at the primal play she invited, he let loose a low growl in the back of his throat. So she was ready then, so she was asking...
He kissed her back, moved one hand to the base of her skull and cupped her head, threaded his long fingers through the mass of her honey tinted hair, undoing several more pins, hearing the metallic click as they hit floor, but not registering their noise.He'd lifted the edge of her skirt to her waist; possessively his hands traced the lines of her thighs, circled the tied tops of her garters.
He felt her breath hitch as he toyed with the line of the garter, feeling the difference between the satin of her skin and the smooth silk of her sheer stocking. Slowly he inched away from the garter, his fingers tracing a feather light trail. He felt her muscles start to clench, felt her pause in their kiss and she waited, waited oh so patiently, craving oh so desperately for him to just touch her...there...in that secret spot he'd discovered, that spot that made her come alive and fall away from the world, shatter into a million pieces into his arms.
His hand continued his play up her leg, past the hem of her chemise, already a scandalously thin and short piece. Adrienne could her body reacting to his slow, deliberate touch, feeling the budding of her nipples, suddenly painfully oppressed, and abraded by the smooth fabric of her corset. She ached, literally throbbed.
"Declan..." She whispered his name on a broken sigh, a slow plea, asking him without any further words. Her hands had fallen lax onto his shoulders; beneath the smooth cut of his military jacket she could feel the supple strength of his shoulders, the massive weight of his muscles. He lifted away from her lips, a wicked grin baring his teeth into something more feral, more primal than a smile. In the dark she could just barely see his eyes, but she could imagine the color, passion darkened gray, ominous as a new storm, and full of the same amount of danger, of unbridled power.
"What Adrienne? What, exactly, do you want me to do?" He drawled the words out in a slow tone, his voice as smooth, as deliciously dark as the finest scotch. She met his gaze, her hazel eyes unseen in the barely lit room and exhaled on a shaky breath. His fingers were still tracing, but momentarily stopped in their travels, merely teasing, only inches away from where she needed him most...
He'd told her she'd beg the next time. Informed her blatantly that he wouldn't give her the satisfaction, the primal unparalleled reaction he'd given her before until she'd agreed to his terms. And damn her, the addicted fool, she'd agreed.
"Touch me. Please." She could only barely say the words, astounded still by the raw, deep line of desire streaked through the words, the husky pitch of her voice.
