Aiden wanted to tease her further but froze for a heartbeat, startled by Arwen's boldness. The intensity of her kiss left no room for hesitation. Her fingers clutched his collar tightly, pulling him closer as if trying to chain him solely to her. There was no gentleness in the way she kissed him —only fierce, unrelenting passion that left no doubt about her claim on him.
