The familiar need to keep her safe pissed him off again. Close enough to touch, he didn’t. He put a hand on each side of her and leaned toward her until their exhales mixed, combined, caressed. Her scent, clean and rich, green, overwhelmed him and brought it all back, the feel of her in his arms, the wholeness of being with her.
She panted.
Good.
She panted.
Good.

Heh! I love his anger and lust at the same time. Good six!
Great tension building.

That's hot. Way hot.
excellent lines. Love how you use scent to create a very strong sexy scene.
Yummy! Awesome 6!
I loved the first line and last lines of the excerpt! Got a great feel for him!
Intense!
Great scene! Love how the sexual tension builds but doesn't reach the point of physical contact. The description of the intermingling breaths has great sensual tension. Loved those last six words that tapped into his sensory memories of being with her in the past.
And me three! I downloaded SILVER BOUND based on last week's six. :)
WOW. Didn't know it could be that hot without... more! Well done!
Love it! Can't wait to read this.
'overwhelmed him and brought it all back' Love that line. He still cares, whether he likes it or not.
Love the involvement of all the senses here! Really evocative snippet.
I love the imagery of shared breath.
This is one I've been contemplating getting. You've sold me! Nice six, Ella!
Very sexy!
Well that was as intriguing as it was steamy.
I'm definitely going to have to add this to my TBR pile.
Niice tension.
Sounds like quite the moment to be lost in. Great description and fab six.
Panting generally equals good lol
Nice six! And they haven't even kissed yet.
Who knew breathing could be so sexy? Rawr!
