APHRODITE'SKISS-JULIEKENNER
TOUCHED
Oh, Apollo’s apples, his touch. A firestorm of shocks ricocheted through her. Her chest constricted, her body warmed, and she felt faint. Then her body finally remembered that little detail about breathing and she exhaled in a whoosh. Mildly mortified, she opened her mouth to say something, then shut it again when she realized it wasn’t too keen on sounding out vowels or consonants.
Sucking in air, she slipped her arm through his, trying not to jump from the electricity that zinged through her when her skin brushed against his. Sooner or later, she’d get used to his touch. Sooner, hopefully, because if she waited for later, all her nerve endings would likely be fried.
She frowned, realizing just how much she wanted to be with this man. He made her laugh, he made her insides flutter. He made her want to take risks.
Huge risks, actually. She nibbled on her lower lip, worried. Did she really want to lose herself to this mortal? Could she? Or was it more likely she’d lose her mind since just the slightest brush of his skin against hers sent every one of her super-senses zooming into super-charged mode?
Insanity seemed like a small price to pay.
