silkiness of her skin beneath his palms.
His fingers fumbled with the buttons of her dress and, although impatient to feel her, he tried not to tear it. Once opened, he gripped the two edges and slid them down, off her shoulders and down her arms. Her breath hitched in her throat as she pulled her arms out of the dress.
Sebastian leaned down and pressed his lips to her shoulder, trailing his tongue along her collarbone. Drea let her head fall back as he tasted the hollow of her throat and worked his way down.
The plain fabric of her smallclothes covered the swell of her breasts. Pushing it away with his tongue, Sebastian edged down lower still. He could feel her heart race under the press of his mouth.
Hooking his fingers around the straps of her camisole, he pulled them down. Achingly slow, he revealed more of her flesh. Inch by inch, he moved the fabric down to finally reveal her perfect pale breasts.
“You are so beautiful.”
Blushing, she raised her arms to cover herself.
Sebastian set his hands on top of hers. “You don’t have to hide from me.”
Holding her hands, he brought them down to her sides, then kissed her, slowly taking her down to the mattress. He shuffled her toward the middle of the bed, then settled in beside her, kissing and nibbling on her delicious mouth.
After sitting up, he slid her dress and undergarments the rest of the way off. Underneath, she was gloriously naked. He drank her in, memorizing every detail of her lovely body—every curve and slope. He wanted to press his mouth to every part of her, to taste her creamy skin on his tongue.
She reached up for him, and he linked his hands with hers. “I want to see you, Sebastian. Every part of you.”
Chapter Ten
Smiling, he released her hands and unbuttoned his shirt. Shrugging out of it, he tossed it theatrically on the floor. She smiled, loving how he made her feel so at ease with his playfulness. She gloried in the feeling of being able to give herself freely to Sebastian.
The flashing light from the lightning played over the rippling muscles of his chest. From the way he carried himself and the lithe way he moved, Drea had known he’d be lean and powerful, but she’d had no real idea until now.
His chest was muscular and defined, with a flat stomach. She wanted to trace her finger over every ridge and dip. A light sprinkling of dark hair lined his sternum leading down to the waistband of his trousers.
Feeling bold, Drea lifted her hand and feathered a finger down the path. The skin covering his hard muscles was smooth, and his hair prickled the pad of her finger. Sebastian shuddered from her touch and she smiled, feeling the power of her stroke. She wondered what other sensations she could pull from him using only her fingers.
When she reached his pants, Sebastian drew his hands away, letting her continue. Sitting up and keeping her gaze on his, she unbuttoned them. Her hands shook as she tugged at the fabric, freeing his erection. Not knowing what to expect, she glanced down at him and sighed.
He was more beautiful than she thought he’d be. She’d seen naked men before. She was a healer, after all, but she’d never experienced the same thrill she felt now. Maybe it was because it was Sebastian. He made all the difference in the world.
“Touch me, Drea.” His voice was low and thick with desire.
She did as he asked and wrapped her hand around his shaft. He let out a long groan the second she made contact. Drea reveled in her power to elicit such a response, from a simple touch of her hand on him. He was like silken steel, hard and soft at the same time. Curious, she explored the rest of his rigid length. She touched, caressed and massaged every inch until he grabbed her hand, stilling her movements.
“I want to be inside you now,” he growled.
Keeping her hand in his, he pressed her back onto the bed, taking her mouth once again. When he swept his tongue over hers, tasting, teasing with every stroke, it was her
