Her eyes fluttered in resistence to opening. The sunlight that filtered around the edges of the curtain brightening the room.

She just wanted to snuggle down in the warmth of the covers and the heat that pressed on her from behind. The weight around her waist pulling her closer to the heat making the decision for her.

"Go back to sleep baby. It's too early to wake up" Lucas' voice thick with sleep and decidedly seductive sent shivers through her body.

"Cold?" he asked as he felt the shiver.

"Um... yeh" she replied while grateful he couldn't see her face flood with heat.

"Mmmm good reason to stay snuggled under the covers" Lucas reasoned.

She giggled.

"You're just being lazy."

"Nope."

"Yes."

"Nope."

"Yes."

"Nu uh."

She giggled again.

"Are you laughing at me?" his voice held an air of mock hurt that made her wish she could see the pouty mouth that was sure to accompany it.

"You're so funny."

Lucas moved suddenly and before she had time to blink she was flat on her back and he was leaning over her with an arm either side of her.

"So you are laughing at me?"

She shook her head quickly but fought to keep back her grin.

"No I'm not."

"Yes you are."

"No."

"Yes."

"No"

"Yes."

Before she could say no again he lent down and quickly placed his lips over hers.

She was silenced.

His lips teased hers relentlessly. Capturing both in succession between his own and her small but audible moans urged him further.

He traced the line of her mouth with his tongue and as she gasped he pushed inside her mouth. Slowly his tongue moulded with hers urging her response to match his own movements.

She raised her hands and threaded her fingers through his already tusseled hair. It felt so soft on her fingers she couldn't help but groan.

Why do guys always have the best hair and eyelashes?

The image of Lucas' eyes flashed before her own closed lids. His long lashes gave him the hailed baby look so many women coverted and she knew she only had to say the word and they'd be hers forever.

Her groan urged him on and he plunged further into her mouth to demand access for his exploration. Her fingers caught on a knot in his hair and as she pushed through it he felt the tug on his scalp and groaned.

He had to tell her how much he liked that!

He groaned deep in her mouth with a groan that came from his chest. He felt the rumbling as it surged forward.

Their kiss became feverish with both determined to experience every taste of the other.

Lucas' hands traced her shoulders and pushed aside the spaghetti straps of her pajama top.

Her hands grabbed fists of his hair and he pulled away to kiss down the side of her mouth towards her chin.

"Do that again baby"

Tara thought for a moment... oh. She tugged again and Lucas' groan vibrated into her skin as he kissed his way down the side of her neck.

She arched her head back and gasped at the tingling sensations that flowed down once sleeping nerve endings. Her whole body arched as Lucas' sucked deeply into the junction of her neck and shoulder. She knew there'd be a mark later.

Releasing her from his mouth he gently licked over the now tender skin and forced himself to push down the need to see his markings all over her.

He left the tender skin and with her panting gasps filling his ears he slowly started to kiss across her chest. His senses were high, completely in tune with how her body was reacting. Waiting for that moment when he went too far.

He knew he was pushing limits but damn his wife was as hot as hell and once, when she was ready, they breeched that final fear there was no way in hell he'd be able to keep his hands off her.

He pushed the material down just a little further and his pride swelled to hear her groans as he kissed her further. The swell of the top of her breasts was calling him. Hell the whole things were but that soft sweet skin just begged for his mouth to to claim ownership... but he knew he couldn't.

He raised his head and moved back up to kiss her mouth gently.

"Good morning baby."
