Chapter 15 Avery & Drake

• AVERY
• Drake’s fingers rest against my hips, his warm breath tickling the back of my neck, making the hairs stand on end. Goosebumps form along my flesh, regardless of how warm the room is. The leather and bergamot scent of his cologne plunders my senses, the combination making me lightheaded.
• My eyelids flutter close, leaning into his chest, my body working of its own volition, and I’m useless to stop it. Noticing my movement, he comes closer; the heat rolling off of him seeps into my skin, and yet I can’t stop shivering. He’s closer, but a small space remains between us. His thumb rubs circles into my lower back, easing tense muscles.
