"Mmm, I'm only teasing, darling." she replied with a soft, sweet voice as he raised her hand to his lips once more. She felt his soft lips against the skin of her wrist and saw the flare of greed in his eyes as his eyelids fluttered and the growl escaped his throat. She doubted that she was hiding her own struggled as much as she had hoped, but at least she wasn't falling all over him, so that was at least something positive.<br/><br/>"Do I?" she asked in tone of nonchalance as she breathed easy and let her body relax. "I can't imagine why." she teased, a playful smile tugging at her lips as she lightly ran her finger across the newly healed skin on his face. When he leaned in, pressing his cheek into her palm and the feverish moan escaped his lips, she momentarily fought not to make a move or so much as a sound, which was a struggle that bordered on torment. After a second that seemed far longer, she reminded herself to breathe and relax, lest she give away just how hard she was fighting to hold on to whatever control she still had.<br/><br/>When his fingers laced with hers and he coaxed her arm back, her shoulder buckled beneath the shifted weight, allowing him to pin her arm above her head. She had neither the physical strength nor a terribly strong desire to fight, so she allowed the movement without resistance, her blue eyes watching his every move. She stifled a laugh when he responded that they could, if she wished. Before she had a chance to respond she felt him nip at her collarbone, the feeling of the point of his fangs dragging along her skin, followed by the warmth of his tongue lapping up the tiny bead of blood that formed on her skin. She felt a shiver down her spine as she shuddered beneath the touch, despite her efforts not to.<br/><br/>She fought, to no avail, to relax, to resist the desire that coursed like fire through her veins with every touch and every kiss. When he rose, her blue eyes met with his green gaze and as she came to the sudden realization of just how close he was, his nose brushing against hers, she swallowed back the feelings that rose. Damn. This was harder than she thought. She gently chewed on the inside of her lip, although not enough to make it bleed, as she stared up at him as he almost pleaded. "Ah hell..." she muttered before she leaned up and captured his lips with hers, pulling him into a passionate kiss.
