EXCERPT
Geoffrey and I stepped into one elevator, the others squeezed into the other. I fumbled with the box
as the elevator doors closed. The elevator jerked slightly. Geoffrey had pushed the stop button,
and gently took the box from my hands as the elevator halted between floors.
I grinned, knowing what he was up to. I reached up to his delicious mouth as his cool palms softly
held my face.

I grinned, knowing what he was up to. I reached up to his delicious mouth as his cool palms softly
held my face.
Whenever our lips touched the link became a hyper wire of electric current.
My tongue danced in time with his as his venom flowed into me.
Along with my being the mythological link to him, we’d also discovered that I was immune to his
venom—but mind you, it still had its drawbacks. Sure, it gave me enhanced senses and physical
abilities, but it also made me sicker than a dog if the dose was too big, basically a nasty hangover.

Just as his icy fingers skimmed my waist, the call buzzer rang, interrupting our moment.
I had about two seconds before he pulled away, so I held him tighter to me,
tugging on his delicious lower lip a bit longer, and his fingers grazed the top of my hips,
which only made me want him more.

Damn buzzer. And I was just getting started, too. He grinned as I tucked my shirt back in.
“At least we won’t have interruptions to worry about anymore,” he said aloud as he tucked my hair
back behind my ear, sending a small thrill through me.
