The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Alaric's thin lips, without any warning, captured hers in a kiss that ignited a fire between them, as intense and sweet as molten honey.

His distinct masculine scent enveloped her entirely.

The urge to kiss him, long suppressed, could no longer be contained. Blood rushed through her veins, her body heating up in anticipation of his embrace.

Holding her breath, her heart seemed to forget how to beat, her eyes wide as she stared at Alaric's face close to her cheek.

He was more striking than any woman, with a temper as gentle as his features were delicate and resilient, his face brushing against hers, leaving her cheeks feeling hot and flushed. Frozen in place, unable to control her boiling blood, Alaric deepened the kiss, prying her lips apart in a conquering motion.

He had only intended to scare her a bit, but once his lips met hers, a tightness gripped his throat, his body's desires nearly overwhelming him, instinctively craving more.

Kissed into submission, her breath mingled with his ragged inhales.

Suddenly, the memory of waking up disheveled in bed with Georgia three years ago flashed through her mind.
