TRAILER
EXCERPT
I grab her hand and press a kiss onto the top, which immediately grabs her attention … and makes the air lock in her throat.
“You think you know me, but you don’t,” I say as I look up at her from underneath my eyelashes.
“I know you hate me as much as I hate you,” she responds.
“I never said I hated you …” I reply, leaning over the tub so she can’t look away. “I hate what you’ve done to me. What you make me do.” I grab her face and inch closer and closer. “How greedy you make me.”
Her lips are wet, the steam rising from the bath drawing smoke between us. But nothing can keep me away from her.
Nothing.
Not even my own damn stone-cold heart.
“I want to hate you,” I murmur so close to her lips I can almost taste them. “So badly …”
“Hate is all you’ve ever shown me,” she murmurs back, her eyes completely transfixed on mine.
“If I hadn’t, there would’ve been nothing left of you.”
She sucks in a breath, her body freezing in the hot bath, her nipples growing taut as I hover so close to her face I can feel every one of her twitches just from the vibrations in the air.
“Show me then. Show me what it means not to hate.”
I press my top lip against hers, and whisper, “Kiss me and find out.”
One second.
That’s all it takes for our lips to collide and for her mouth to finally crave mine as I have craved hers. I’ve claimed her lips before, but she’s never given them to me freely. Willingly. Hungrily.
And fuck me, that makes me hungry for more.
The way she kisses me back wakes the hunter inside me.
I groan against her lips as I coax them to open, desperate for a taste. And when she does, our tongues entangle, and I kiss her deep and hard, wanting to draw out her soul.
I’ve kissed girls before, but none of them ever made me this lusty, this greedy for more.
I lean up and get closer and closer until I’m halfway into the tub with my arms, but I don’t care. The warmth only heats me up even more as I circle my tongue around and lick the roof of her mouth.
She tastes pure, divine, like everything I could ever want to ruin.
The more I have, the more I want to take, and take, and take until there’s nothing left.
I want to break every last inch of her until all she’ll ever want is me.
