watched her throat move as she swallowed. He wondered what it would feel like to press his lips to that spot, to slowly kiss his way downward to the hollow between her collar bones.
Her skin would be hot. He'd be able to feel her pulse beneath his lips. Would it race with excitement for him? Would she push her hands into his hair and squirm beneath him, hoping he'd kiss his way further down?
“Here, you need to try this,” Sidney said, her voice a little breathless.
This time, she used her own fork to offer him a bite. Her friends were giggling softly, but Kayden didn't mind. He wanted them to be jealous of Sidney. He wanted to be the perfect date for her. Because Sidney deserved it. And because she was damn sexy when she flushed at all the attention.
Slowly, he leaned forward for the bite she had offered. “Mmm,” he moaned at the taste of the cream.
Sidney hadn't exaggerated. He'd never tasted anything like it before. It was a perfect blend of flavors—the rich sweetness of the caramel, the hint of salt that perfectly balanced it, the sweet tang of the bananas that melted on his tongue, creamy and smooth.
“It's delicious,” he said hoarsely, his eyes still on Sidney as he swallowed.
She flushed an even deeper red as her friends kept giggling at their flirting. Her eyes were soft, dark with a desire that pulled at Kayden as well. It was as if nature herself had tied them together. It was inescapable, like a storm, like the moon calling the tides, and suddenly this overwhelming love that filled his heart was too much to bear.
Slowly he leaned forward, giving her time to pull away. But Sidney didn't move back. Sidney kept watching him, the gray of her eyes darkening with passion, her lips parting—and then their mouths met.
Somewhere in the background, he heard Eve whoop and her friends cheer—but right now, all of that had ceased to matter.
Sidney's mouth was soft beneath his own. Her lips were warm and they moved against his own, tender and light like the touch of petals. Still, beneath it all there was a surge of passion that was electrifying. One single touch was enough to make his blood rush through his veins, heat rising inside him.
As much as he wanted to make Sidney happy, as much as he wanted to impress her friends and family, the feral bear within him wanted to claim his mate, wanted the taste of her skin and the trembling of her thighs as he claimed her again and again.
He drew back before that need became unbearable. Flushed and out of breath, they looked at each other.
Her eyes were wide. Passion had kindled a light in them, the gray of her pupils the color of storm clouds lit by lightning.
Oh yes, his bear growled.
Kayden had to swallow. If this was what a single kiss caused, he could not wait for the sparks when he finally claimed his mate.
Gently, he reached out to brush a strand of hair back behind her ear while she watched, wide-eyed, her lips swollen and red. And then he became aware of the way the room had suddenly fallen silent.
When they turned around, they were met by grinning faces—and there, in the door, stood a newcomer. The stranger was a woman, tall and with perfectly coiffed white-blonde locks, wearing a white blouse and a pencil skirt so tight that Kayden wondered whether she was able to move in it at all.
“What’s this?” the woman asked and arched an eyebrow.
She sounded affronted, and for a moment, the atmosphere in the cheerful little bakery turned icy.
“Really, Sidney, what a display.” The newcomer sniffed after a moment. “Mom said you had a secret—did you keep silent just so you could make a show out of it?”
Next to Kayden, Sidney now rolled her eyes.
“Kayden, meet Karen,” she said. “My sister.”
“Pleased to meet you,” Kayden drawled, keeping an arm lightly wrapped around Sidney’s shoulder.
