Chapter 51: What Charm Did she Place On This Poor Soul?

It seemed like Arianna had been dreaming when he pressed his lips against hers. She froze up, her body unmoving until Elijah deepened the kiss and a moan left her mouth.

Arianna was stunned, her eyes widening. This was the first time she had kissed a man on the lips - the pecks she gave Big Joe didn't count at all.

Her heart pounded in her chest with a concussive force that made it seem like she would suffer a heart attack soon. Arianna loved watching soap operas and each kissing scene had always made her crave that emotion. She wondered what it would feel like to have the lips of the love of her life on hers. Only now, she didn't know how to describe it.

Her toes curled on itself and she felt this urgency to respond so she wrapped her hand around his neck while the other fisted his shirt, pulling him closer.
