and... greedy.

Now, Penny and Zoren understood why people kissed to show their affection. The moment their lips met, it felt like a dam had broken. A simple dab of his lips on hers didn't feel right - it didn't feel like enough. So, the second he leaned in again, the kiss was fierce, hungry, More didn't feel enough.

Deepening the kiss, his tongue twirled and explored her mouth. Zoren squeezed her waist, desperate to close every inch between them. Penny responded by sliding her fingers over his broad, muscular back. Their warm bodies pressed against each other, creating faint heat waves as they began to burn from within to their skin.

As the kiss deepened, she felt her entire world spin, her knees weak and tempting her to give in. Lost in the sensation, she felt his hand crawl down her waist. He held her close and firmly, grounding her as if he was afraid the intensity of the kiss would sweep her away. When they finally broke apart, they were breathless, their foreheads resting against each other. Their deep breaths mingled between their parted lips, their drumming hearts echoing in their ears. Their shaky eyes slowly met before the corners of their lips curled up. Soft laughter broke out from them, equally amused, shocked, and overwhelmed by the newfound emotions swirling in their chests.

"Your first?" he asked, his voice coarse as his throat was dry.

"No."

Zoren leaned back a little, tempted to ask who had dared to steal the first spot. But before he could, she added mischievously,

"Five minutes ago was the first, this is the second," she clarified, giggling. "Your first?"

His lips curled up deviously as he leaned in again. "Definitely not my last," he whispered huskily, biting her bottom lip without giving her a heads-up.

His instinct was right. The moment he claimed her lips for the second time, he knew he would never go back. Not that he was ever willing to go back because now he was certain this was not a dream. It was not something his mind had created.
