She blinked, lying, “Nope. Not at all.”
I leaned in, closing the small distance between us. Slowly, I rubbed my lips over hers. Barely touching her mouth, just enough to prove my point that she did want my lips on hers.
“You sure you don’t want me, Soph?”
“Mmm hmm.”
Back and forth, my mouth brushed along hers as I reached up and grabbed ahold of her face. With my thumbs caressing the soft skin of her cheeks, I dug my own grave.
Growling, “Well, since you won’t give it to me, I’m going to have to take it.”
And then I slammed my mouth onto hers.

They say when you had your first kiss, you saw stars. Jax didn’t just make me see stars, he made me see the whole galaxy.
It was bright.
Bold.
Earth-shattering.
Words couldn’t describe this moment in time. For a second, it seemed like the world stopped spinning and it was only us. Right there, on the grass, with him on top of me, I felt everything. From his lips to his chest to his dick—he was mine.
My eyes shut tightly, my breathing hitched, and I went along for the ride that was Jax Colton.
His lips were rough but smooth against mine. My heart beat so fast, I could feel it pounding in my skull, in my bones, in my soul. Trying to follow the movement of his mouth, I slowly parted my lips as he pulled me closer to him as if we already weren’t close enough. My hands slid down his arms to his chest, wanting to see if his heart was beating as fast as mine.
It was, making me smile against his mouth.
I followed his rhythm.
His movements.
Slowly.
Gently.
Passionately.
He set the pace for us.
His tongue touched my lips, causing this tingling to come alive in the core of my body. As soon as his tongue sought out mine, I was done for. Getting lost in the spell that was his scent, his taste, he was all-consuming.
A soft moan escaped my mouth, and he kissed me harder.
Faster.
Leaving me breathless and wanting more.
Incoherent thoughts ran rampant in my mind. One right after the other, it was a hurricane of confusion and in its wake was him, standing in the eye of the storm with me in his arms.
I’d never forget what he whispered next…
