Jasmin's POV
His breath ghosted across my lips as he whispered the words that made my world tilt sideways.
"Then should we go to bed?"
The oxygen vanished from the space between us.
Every beat of my heart hammered against my chest like a prisoner desperate for escape. The words he spoke shouldn't have sent electric currents racing down my spine. They shouldn't have awakened that dangerous hunger coiling in my belly, or the terrifying warmth blooming in my chest like wildfire ready to consume everything in its path.
"Have you completely lost it?" I pressed my palm against his chest to create distance, but he caught my wrist and pinned it against the wall beside my head.
"I need to lose my sanity to want sleep?" His coffee-scented breath filled my lungs as my body went rigid from his touch. "From tonight forward, it's only you and me in this room. Every single night. Nobody else."
Every single night? Heat flooded my face, burning from my throat to the tips of my ears.
