A Vow of Deception, A Vow of Revenge novel Chapter 249

249 /250

Winona wanted to protest—he could obviously do it himself. But his deep, gravelly voice seemed to cast a spell on her. Her hands lifted, fingers trembling slightly as she began to fasten the buttons.

Starting from the top, she worked her way down…

Elvis's eyes never left her face. Her lashes were lowered, her breathing was a little too quick, and her lips were pressed together in a soft line. Every part of her was an irresistible temptation. A vein throbbed at his temple.

When her fingers, whether by accident or design, brushed against his abs, the last thread of his control snapped. His breath hitched.

The shirt was only half-buttoned when he wrapped an arm around her slim waist, pulling her into a fierce embrace and crushing his lips to hers.

Their breaths tangled together in a chaotic dance. The air in the room grew thick with desire. Seizing the opportunity, Winona boldly ran her hands over his abs. They felt even better than she'd imagined.

She thought she heard him let out a low chuckle against her lips.

In a brief pause between kisses, he murmured, “Anything you want, Winona. You never have to be discreet with me.”

Before she could respond, he captured her mouth again, stealing the air from her lungs.

*If this continues*, Winona thought hazily, *we're not going to make it out of the house today.*

Was she ready? She wasn't sure. But did two people in love, on the verge of engagement and marriage, really need to be “ready” for something so natural?

His kisses grew more feverish. At some point, the buttons she had just fastened were undone again, either by his hands or her own. Her hands crept up to his shoulders, itching to pull his shirt off completely.

And then, a phone rang, shattering the intimate atmosphere.

Elvis frowned, pulling back slightly to look at her. Her eyes were shimmering, her lips swollen from his kisses. A fresh wave of heat coiled in his gut.
