Kiss My Lips – New Excerpt
The doorbell
sounded.
Lorna lifted
her teary face out of her aunt's arms. "Who else are you expecting this
morning? You’ve got more surprises in store for me, Auntie?"
Instead of
answering the question, her aunt glanced at her brother.
"Please
get the door, Kanu. I'll quickly get changed. Make my guest welcome, will you?"
Lorna looked
from the woman rushing off to her father, who was striding towards the front
door. She plucked out a handful of tissue from her bag, wiped off streaks of
wet mascara and sat on the black leather bar stool by the kitchen island. She
poured herself a glass of mango juice and was sipping the drink when her father
came back with Logan in tow.
The glass
slipped out of her right fingers but she rescued it with her left hand. Her
stomach muscles contracted. Her feet rushed ahead and she threw herself into
Logan's outstretched arms.
He scented
of warm balsam. She inhaled as her head rested on the hard plane of his chest
wall. Pure joy leaked out of her heart, flooding her entire body. The arms
holding her were all taut muscle and strength. She wrapped her arms round his
black silk shirt and burst into tears.
"Maybe
I should leave you two," her father excused, walking in the direction of
the second guest bedroom through the hallway.
Logan guided
his fiancée to the pale green, moriko leaf upholstered sofa. He sat down and
pulled her to sit across his thighs.
Lorna
sobbed.
Logan let
her cry. From time to time, he wiped her face.
Through her
tears, she saw a tiny trickle of moisture drop down one lane on his cheek.
"Are you crying, Logan?" she asked, not quite sure he understood her
pain. She wiped one finger over the wetness and then, she saw another small
tear, drop out of his right eye.
With her
face only inches from his, Lorna kissed his half-parted lips. The kiss was raw and hungry as her
tongue dived into his mouth, demanding and taking. Her nipples stiffened in her
body-hugging top and she pressed her breasts into his torso.
Logan's arms
crashed around her shoulders and the chiseled wall of his chest teased her
nipples taut. Wild fire raged as his tongue dipped into her mouth, taking
control and sending flickers of burning heat through her thighs.
"Your
dad and aunt are here, sweetheart. Do you want me to show them how much you
mean to me?" Logan's sensible words brought her back to her aunt's living
room. She leaned her head on his forehead.
"When I
saw the tear drop from your eye, fireworks exploded in my chest. You cried with me,
Logan," she said in awe.
"Did I?" Logan
shrugged, running one finger across her lips. "Love is a strange
emotion, Lorna. Your pain is my pain and your joy is mine."

I like the intense emotion. A man shedding a tear in the process pulls at the heart strings.
