Chapter 114

Connor POV

I bend my head enough for my lips to skim the top of her ear and feel her shiver against me, just that small touch and reaction from her is enough to make me have to fight the boner that’s trying to rise to attention. “I’ve got you,” I murmur, my lips still hovering at the top of her ear.

I turn the board until we’re on a long, straight path so she can get used to it more. A small, delighted laugh bursts from her lips when I quickly turn us and her head falls back against my chest. I feel her look up at me and tilt my head down to meet her penetrating gaze, noticing something resembling hungry desire glinting in her eyes. I feel her move one of her hands off of my arm and feel a knot form in my throat as she brings her arm up behind her, wrapping it around my neck. Her tongue darts across her lips before they part and she tilts her head, angling it up toward my face.
