“Noah trailed a line of blazing kisses along the nape of neck, confusing my brain.”

“Noah's fingers lightly touched the long thick ridge below my left shoulder blade. His voice pitched low. "I'm sorry, baby." "No one else knows, Noah. Not even Lila." He kissed my back as he slid his hand over the scars on my arm. "You 're beautiful", he whispered against my skin. Noah lifted my arm and kept eye contact as his mouth trailed kisses along the scars. Pure hunger darkened those chocolate-brown eyes. "Kiss me.”

“Who was blowing on the nape of my neck.”

“And oh, the oh my nape of the neck. The up-swept oh my nape of the neck. I could walk behind anyone and fall in love. Don’t stop. Don’t turn around.”

“He bit the nape of my neck and I moaned.”

“It will always be yes..." I whispered, lightly kissing his lips..."I will always be yours..." I continued, kissing along his jaw line..."And I will always be by your side..." I finished kissing his neck.”
