all her sensitive folds and at the same time feeding from what kept flowing.
    The dizzying thrall seemed to intensify and suddenly the orgasm arrived, rolling over her in heavy, erotic waves. She gripped his shoulders, pushing her sex against his mouth and savoring each tug on her flesh.
    He stayed with her until the last bit of pleasure faded then drifted away. She lay lax on the bench, her arms hanging down on either side.
    He swiped the wounds with his tongue to seal them, then lifted up to look at her. “I could spend hours right here, making you come repeatedly.”
    She nodded. “I’d love it, too.” She became aware that the sealing of the wounds had ended the thrall. She was no longer dizzy, yet she already missed the sensation of being caught by him.
    She looked into his intense, gray eyes dilated with need. Affection for him warmed her chest. Sex had always meant more to her than just the physical and because of all the phone calls, she knew Vaughn now, knew him well.
    A feeling very much like love expanded in her chest. But at almost the same moment, she repressed the feeling. This was Five Bridges, a hellish place that had already cost her so much. Did she really want to go down that road again?
    He rose up slightly and kissed her abdomen several times. “You’re looking very serious, Em.”
    “This is so strange but wonderful to be with you right now. I’m loving this stolen time of ours.” She ran her fingers down his cheek. “And being enthralled was amazing, especially knowing you could have killed me if you’d wanted to. Very dangerous and erotic.”
    For some reason this made him smile.
    “Are you laughing at me?”
    “Not exactly. I was picturing how long it would take to deplete your blood supply from where I was feeding.” His lips curved.
    She couldn’t help but laugh. “How very wicked, but what a way to go.”
    He chuckled again and once more she caressed his face. “I love that we’re doing this, but I never thought it would happen.”
    “Me, neither.”

    Vaughn stared into Emma’s passion-drenched eyes. The taste of her blood and her sex combined was still in his mouth and kept him hard as a rock. But what surprised him was how much her blood had powered him up. His muscles felt pumped, and for a moment, he could feel what it was for Emma to be a witch.
    He didn’t know how much time they actually had together, but he intended to make the most of it.
    He stood up and looked Emma over head-to-foot. Her breasts were full, her nipples peaked from the orgasm. As he leaned over her, he planted one hand near her shoulder to support his weight. He ran his free hand from one pelvic bone to the next then over the soft indentation of her lower abdomen. He moved his hand upward, traveling over her navel then farther to caress each breast.
    “You’re beautiful, Em. Every bit of you.”
    Her hands moved over his shoulders and arms at the same time, a sensual fondling of his muscles. He could tell she liked his body by the way she plucked at each bulge. He flexed when she dug her nails in.
    He leaned close and took his time suckling each of her breasts. When her moans grew urgent, he knew it was time to move things along. “Put your hands on my shoulders.”
    She obeyed readily.
    “Now hold on. I’m going to shift your position.” He gripped her waist and smiled because his fingers fit all the way around her. With a smooth motion, he lifted her to lie more fully on the bench.
    She held her arms out to him and he eased down between her legs. The bench had a nice width but he was a big man so there still wasn’t a lot of room. She made it work by surrounding his hips with her legs.
    “I’ve been wanting to be this close to you again, more than you can know.”
    “Me, too.” She ran her fingers through the close crop of hair on the sides of his head. “This is so sexy, Vaughn. I love these tattoos. And I’ve imagined doing this, touching you here, wondering whether your hair was
