Julian pressed a soft kiss against her neck.

"Jules," Emma whispered. "We can't keep doing this."

His lips found her jaw, then her face, traced his way down her neck, and across her collar bone. She was sure his lips were made of fire as they lit her body aflame, all the way into her insides. Eventually, his mouth found Emma's ear. "Aren't you the one who says rules are meant to be broken?"
