Falling Awake (Unbreakable #2)

The counter behind her? That's exactly where I would pin her against right now. Just so I could feel her soft body leaned against mine. Just so I could perceive her accelerated breath on my skin. Just so I could hear her quiet moans, coming from those bewitching lips as I would make her repeat my name. I would wrap my arms around her, I would take her into my embrace so she could never leave again. And then I would kiss her until there’s no air left in our lungs. I would keep kissing her until she admits that she‘s mine. Only mine. *** But those mesmerizing eyes kept haunting me. I would have sworn they were glowing when he was this annoyed. He reached out for my arm, he grabbed it cheekily to pull me closer to him. „Admit it, Lara,“ he growled as his gaze dropped to my mouth. „Admit that we belong together.“ He was staring, fuck, he was watching my lips shamelessly, as if they were his last chance of salvation. As if they could save him from falling into eternal doom. And I…, my gosh! There was so much of what I was feeling right now. I wanted and then I didn’t, I longed, I needed, I had to, I couldn’t. I tried to fight it, I tried to make him let go of me. But he just wrapped his arm around my waist and pressed me to his chest. “Admit it,” he whispered. “Say it out loud. I´m yours and you´re mine.”
