Ella POV

Things happened quickly–one second, Alexander’s lips brushed lightly against mine, and the next, I was pinned to the couch, his body straddling mine as his tongue pressed gently against my mouth.

My lips parted, allowing him to deepen the kiss, and a shiver of electricity ran down my spine.

Alexander’s hands were warm and strong as they ran down the length of my back. I gasped softly as he slipped his fingers beneath the hem of my shirt and touched my bare skin.

The contact made me shiver.

“You’re sensitive,” Alexander whispered as he pulled away from the kiss.

“Don’t tease me,” I pouted.

Alexander gripped my waist and pulled me forward until I was flush against him. “I’m not teasing,” he replied with a smirk.

“I don’t think this was part of our deal,” I said weakly.

Alexander brought his lips to mine but stopped short of kissing me. I felt his lips brush mine as he whispered, Do you want me to stop? I’ll show you to the guest room so you can handle things yourself, if you want.”

My mind raced with all the reasons we shouldn’t be doing this, a flurry of warnings flashing through my thoughts. But none of them seemed very convincing in that moment.

“No,” I answered.

Alexander closed the distance between us, pulling me onto his lap as he kissed me.

Everything else faded into the background as the heat of his body against mine took over, the warmth growing between us undeniable and nearly unbearable thanks to the drugs effects.

My hands found their way to his back, feeling the firmness of his muscles beneath my fingers, and I couldn’t stop myself from pulling him closer, as though every inch between us felt like too much distance.
