"Every bone in my body is begging me to devour you." He was just too close, clouding my senses and making my head foggy. "Every bone?" My voice was breathless, barley above a whisper as his calloused fingers lowered to drag across the inner flesh of my thighs. "There's one in particular just dying to know how it feels to be buried between your legs."

My mouth opened to reply but only a silent moan escaped me because his hand was beneath my skirt and his thumb was pressing deliciously between my folds. . . .
