his mind or give her a chance to change hers, he deepened the kiss, tracing the seam of her lips with his tongue until she opened and let him in. God, she tasted like everything sweet he’d ever had in his life. He licked every inner surface, wanting to swallow her whole. He tightened his grip on her, not wanting to give her the chance to pull away, but she surprised him by clutching at his arms. He slid his fingers up through the silk of her hair, cupping her head and tilting it one way then another to give the kiss a better angle. And when she opened her mouth, her own small tongue thrust forward to dance erotically with his.
    He broke the kiss only when his breath ran out. Lifting his head, he stared at Jinx through lust-fogged eyes. She had a startled expression on her face and her gaze was locked with his. The pulse at the hollow of her throat beat furiously and he was sure the heat radiating from her body singed his skin.
    “What…what was that?” Her voice was shaky.
    “I don’t know, but I think I’m gonna do it again.”
    This time he took her mouth with unrestrained hunger, plundering it with his tongue, sealing his lips to hers as if he’d never let her go. All rational thought left his mind as he pressed her close to him. It took a moment for him to realize that her hands were pushing at his chest and she was trying to twist away from him. Shaking the fog from his brain, he backed away a step.
    “Sorry.” He cleared his throat and tried again. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean…”
    But she was already opening the door and grabbing his hand to drag him inside.
    “One of us is crazy,” she said in a husky voice. “I’m hoping it’s me. And that I’ll wake up in the morning and be able to pretend I didn’t make a fool of myself.”
    “That’s for tomorrow.” His heart raced as he realized she didn’t mean to send him away after all. He tried to think of what to say, but all the blood in his head seemed to have headed south to his groin. Unwilling to give her a chance to have second thoughts, he swept her up in his arms and headed for the stairs. He halted at the top. “Which way?”
    She pointed to a room at the end of the hallway. He nudged the door open with his foot, carried her inside and set her down beside the bed. Weaving his fingers through the strands of her hair again, he touched his mouth to hers and licked the outline. He wanted nothing more than to tear her clothes off and throw her on the bed.
    Slow, asshole. Don’t give her a reason to change her mind. This is a woman to savor and worship, so don’t fuck it up.
    Dillon couldn’t believe how impatient his body was or how ravenous he was for her. But tearing off her clothes in three seconds wasn’t his style, and he didn’t want to start now. Especially with this woman. He tasted her lips then trailed his tongue across the smoothness of her cheek to the tender spot behind her ear. With his teeth, he drew a faint line along the column of her neck, biting very gently where her neck and shoulder met. She shivered at his touch and a soft little moan drifted from her mouth.
    Dillon took his time kissing and nipping while he tugged her top from the waistband of her skirt, stopping only to ease the fabric over her head. With each movement, he held his breath, praying she wouldn’t suddenly tell him to stop. Send him on his way. He opened the front clasp of her bra and cupped her breasts in his palms, brushing the nipples with his thumbs and drawing out another one of those sensual little moans.
    He dipped his head to press his lips to the hollow of her throat, felt her pulse beating wildly beneath the delicate skin. She tilted her head back, giving him better access and he sucked hard, squeezing her breasts at the same time. Taking a stiff nipple into his mouth, he tugged and pulled it and rolled his tongue around it. When he’d tormented one to its fullest, he moved his mouth to the other.
    As he sucked lightly on it he felt tugging
