And then his eyes lifted, and she saw the pool of heat in them. Watched them darkening. He swallowed and stared at her full lips. His eyes were dazed, Emily noticed, as he leaned forward hovering close to her lips. His black sheen of hair so close Emily wanted to reach out and touch it. At this point, she was breathing heavily.
