His mouth drifted down to brush kisses against the soft skin of her belly as his hands carefully nudged her down to lie back on the bed.

There was a moment's pause as he looked down at her, the only place of contact his thumb against her hip rubbing smooth, steady strokes over the skin. Oh, he wanted to do everything to her. Start at her fingertips and suck them into his mouth then kiss over her arm, collarbone and down again. Until her nerves were singing and she was writhing, until she couldn't even talk to beg for more, more, more.
