Vlad's kiss was rougher this time, more desperate, like he’d been holding back for too long. I melted into it, letting his lips claim mine with an intensity that made my knees weak. My back pressed hard against the door, and I felt a thrill run through me, knowing there was no going back from this. His body was flush against mine, and the heat between us was undeniable.
His hands trailed down my sides, fingers brushing over my hips, making me shiver. I tilted my head back slightly, giving him more access to my neck. His lips followed the curve of my jaw, hot and needy, and when he kissed the sensitive skin just beneath my ear, I couldn’t stop the soft moan that escaped me.
“Vlad,” I whispered, not even sure what I wanted to say. I just needed him more than I’d ever needed anyone before.
