“And you don’t get to speak to people like you did him! You might be king but…”
And then his lips came down on hers, taking possession of her mouth in a way that was unlike anything she’d ever known. Not like the kiss of exploration they’d shared the night before. This was a kiss of punishment and possession. His mouth covered hers and his hands bundled into her hair, his fingers catching at it and holding her so that she was his captive – but oh, such a willing captive. She moaned and opened her mouth wider, surrendering to the kiss, her anger being rushed out of her body on a tsunami of instant desire.
The anticipation of the day was a storm and it was breaking around her, consuming her in its fervent desperation. Her hands lifted of their own accord, her fingers curling in his shirt. He made a guttural sound as his kiss became more frantic, but there was a threat in it too, a fierce reminder of who was in charge. Somewhere in the back of her mind, a drum was beating its insistent warning – a reminder that she had sworn she wouldn’t do this! That she wouldn’t succumb to the passion he could so easily spin around her.
With a growing sense of impatience, and an anger directed entirely at her own weakness where her husband was concerned, Chloe ripped herself away from him, putting vital space between them. Her chest heaved with the effort of catching her breath but she straightened her spine and squared her shoulders, staring at him as though he’d lost his mind.
Raffa watched her with far greater composure than she had mustered.
“How dare you kiss me to silence me?” She demanded, the words rich with contempt.
“I dare because I am king,” he said. “Now, I am going to go and deal with the boy and then, my wife, I am coming to deal with you.”
