Page 12
The slight movement of air told her that he’d let his wings burst free. The space was suddenly too warm and too quiet. She felt safe, always so when he was around.
You’re disturbed.
She needed to get to a phone, and she needed to do so quickly. “Isaiah,” she pleaded, “I need to use your phone. I need to contact my friend. She will be concerned about me. Allow me to at least put her at ease.”
The Angel took a step back. When he did, his hand was in front of her face, complete with cell attached. She was so delighted that he’d granted her this one request that she turned quickly into his embrace and kissed him.
She hadn’t expected him to return the kiss, but she soon found herself tightly wrapped in the arms of an Angel, crushed against his chest.
Phone still in hand, she wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss, knowing this was exactly what she should be avoiding. She felt a rumbling against her chest and realized that Isaiah was growling. It warmed her heart and heated her flesh. Dalila felt the stirrings of thousands of neurons and electrons battling in her body to make a connection that only Isaiah could complete. She felt him on a cellular level, and even though her head couldn’t figure it out, her body was completely on board.
Melding their bodies closer, Dalila lifted her legs and wound them around Isaiah’s waist. His hand skimmed her body, palming her ass, and as their mouths crushed and tongues danced, he walked her backward, never breaking the kiss as he sat on the couch with her straddling him. The hands on her ass moved to her waist, and he gripped tighter.
She could feel his fingers flexing and massaging as he held her in his lap. Tiny pulses built into a thunderous beat. She no longer had one heart but two. Hers and his. Their counterparts, syncing to their rhythm. Her clit pounded, and his cock hardened. She could feel the heat of him pulse and push against her most sensitive of spots.
Breaking the kiss, Isaiah tugged on her lower lip, tracing it in slow, torturous strokes. “Woman, you have been driving me crazy since the moment I first held you in my arms.” He whispered the words that she hadn’t known she’d wanted to hear.
She watched through half-closed eyes as Isaiah lowered his lids and placed his head on the back of the couch. Dalila saw the corded muscles of his neck and watched his throat work as he swallowed. This man, this Warrior Angel, was everything that dreams were made of confidence, power, and sex, all rolled up with thunder and lightning and the scent of rain and earth.
Isaiah was a force to be reckoned with, she was sure, both inside and outside of the bedroom. She should be making the phone call to her friend, not sitting on the lap of a Seraphim that could destroy her with his burning touches and lingering kisses.
He tasted sinful, a duality of fire and ice, saturated in sugar. The fiery, sweet taste still burned her lips, left a chilled feeling in its wake. Dalila rocked back on his lap, knowing she was going to start a fire she couldn’t put out.
She began a slow ride, moving her hips back and forth. This part of the seduction wasn’t new for her; she’d gotten all the way to third base before, but never with someone as potent and virile as Isaiah.
The hands at her hips guided her, and his lap answered her movements with motion of its own. His erection was a match to her flint, striking over her center with sure movements, eliciting untamed desire.
Dalila stared into molten silver eyes that watched her with a desire that went bone-deep and tugged on her soul. She was positive that they were communicating in a language only their bodies spoke.
Beautiful, long lashes and a strong, sensual jaw begged and taunted her. She wanted to kiss him again, to connect their lips. Dalila bent forward and did just that. She kissed his eyes first, then his cheeks, then slowly dragged her lips across his chin. She nipped his jaw until she reached his mouth and took it in a searing kiss.
The slide of tongues, the taste of lips…recognition hit deep.
It was on a level that Dalila was sure he had to feel as strongly as she did. How could he not? The soul always knew when it found its other half.
The story will continue with The Warriors Salvation, coming soon to an e-reader near you.
