MARAT
I licked my bottom lip, watching her throat work as she swallowed down a lungful of air.
She shivered.
Involuntarily?
Maybe. I wondered if she was cold. Unlikely since the temperature inside the club seemed to be comfortable. A relief from the sweltering heat of the Neon City.
Maybe she trembled for a different reason. Maybe she was suffering from the same primitive desire I felt burning in my veins for her.
I fucking hoped so. My pulse raced as I watched her tremble a second time. Fuck. Would she shiver like that when I undressed her? I bet I could make her legs shake.
I bet I could knock her right off her feet.
Josef said something, and reality came crashing into my fantasies. We weren’t alone. If I saw her shivering, that meant others could see her too.
I wanted to cover her up. To warm her. Hide her. Make it so no one else could see any part of her.
