Jaded Hearts
you lose. It is possible," I
clarified.
    He laughed and then roped me into another
tight embrace.
    "Possible? Yes. Probable? No,” he informed
me.
    His eyes burned into mine with that look
again. I doubted my ability to breathe when he looked at me like
that. I decided not to continue my pointless agonizing, and enjoy
this insanely sexy man for as long as I could before I devised an
escape. I smiled at him instead. His eyes narrowed and he bent to
whisper against my ear again.
    "Jade, just as determined as you are to
fight me, I am more determined to have you. I feel your body
against mine, I feel your heart beating, you're breathing hard,
your nipples harder, but your words lie. It's making me..." He
placed small slow kisses down my neck, and everything he accused my
body of came true.
    Ah! Why? How can he do this to me?
    I rolled my neck back to expose more skin
for him to torture.
    "It's making you...what?" I dared to
ask.
    He moved back up my neck breathing in my
scent.
    "It's making me not think about anything
else but you. Feeling you, tasting you, and wanting you to move
your body for me like you do, while I'm inside of you. Hmm mm," he
purred.
    I felt my midsection tighten and my insides
clenched involuntarily. I was flooded with desire for this man.
Since he first looked into my eyes, and every day since. I couldn't
think straight and if he tried to take me right now, I couldn't
stop him. That thought sent more shivers through me.
    I'm losing it...
    I slowly pull my head back so that we are
face to face.
    "Why?" That was all I managed to ask.
    I stared at him, my eyes pleading, trying to
will him to let me go. My body wouldn't be happy with that
scenario, but I knew I could live with it. His face softened for a
brief moment as he attempted to answer me.
    "This is why." A soft whisper.
    He lowered his mouth to mine for a kiss. My
lips thrilled in anticipation of a repeat performance of the kiss I
had been dreaming about. But he teased me, barely skimming his
mouth against mine in a soft caress; still moving to the slow Latin
beat. One arm around my waist, and the other still gripping my hand
to lead me.
    After a few moments of being trapped in
anticipation my instincts took over. I slowly parted my lips and
slid my tongue across his bottom lip. He closed his eyes as if he
couldn't bear to watch me, but his body responded with an ever so
slight shiver.
    The music switched to the newer Reggaeton (a
mix between Latin and Reggae music). The spell broke, and I pulled
away and began to roll and shake my hips to the infectious
Gasolina. Julian came up behind me and began to match my movements
and it immediately felt like the heat was turned on. His hands
explored my frame as his body was slowly grinding against mine,
then he turned me to face him.  
    I teased him by wrapping my arms around his
neck and lifting my left leg around his waist. He grinned at me as
he gripped my leg pulling me tighter against him. I quickly
realized that I had made a bad move as his hands slowly crept up my
leg threatening to explore uncharted territory. My back arched
involuntarily pressing my body closer to his in anticipation.
    "Hm-mm, can you feel that too mamita? I
could feel you before I even touched you. The first time I saw you
I could already feel this," he admitted, his accent smooth and
heavy.
    His whispers intensified my shivers as he
began to plead with me in Spanish to give him what he wanted, which
I wanted so badly to give him, but I knew that I shouldn't. Julian
was trouble. The kind I could feel in my bones. My grandmother
always warned me about a man that had more control over your body
than you did.  I tried to break the thick chain of passion
that had grown between us, but he only held me tighter.
    "Don't run from me chica . Don't be afraid of what we both want," he
begged.
    I closed my eyes trying desperately to gain
control over myself.
    Breathe bitch. Breathe!
    My reserve was nil and my champagne haze was
disabling me.
