Nate wanted to kiss Lara's neck without that damned dress in the way. He wanted to move it away and lick her collarbones.
Still, his mate might not like being exposed to him. Especially a sensitive area such as her neck or cleavage. He was a wolf after all: why should she trust he wouldn't hurt her?
Before he could find the words to ask her one more time, Lara's hands reached the back of her neck. She undid the two buttons keeping the halter neckline in place, and Nate could finally see her collarbones.
She was wearing a strapless bra, so the only cloth covering the upper part of her chest was the dress. Once removed, Nate could kiss the hollow between her neck and shoulder.
Her skin was so soft, and it had the scent of her perfume.
His tongue tickled her nerves, and she sighed once again. She found his hair and played with the soft locks, drowning in the pleasure.
