Chapter 23

• **Elora's POV**
• My body twitched in excitement when he made that statement and shivered anticipating what he would do to me. He trailed kisses down my collarbone, making it tingle. The way his lips touched my skin sent a rush of pleasure through me. My eyes fluttered shut as I let him work on my neck. He ran his hand up my shirt, brushing against me with his fingertips, sending goosebumps all over my exposed flesh.
• He cupped one breast in his palm, then moved the other breast aside and pinched my nipple between his fingers. I arched into his touch, moaning. His mouth moved lower, to my earlobe, sucking gently, but not hard enough. My nipples hardened further against my dress, and the hem of my skirt bunched up underneath me. He continued kissing and nibbling at my ear while his free hand moved lower, to my hip where he pulled me tighter against him.
