    Summary

    “Robby’s observing today,” Dennis replies, looking vaguely intimidated. “Final decisions on casting for the summer season.”

    “Then who’s teaching class?” she asks the barre around her.

    “Someone completely useless,” Emery says, rolling her eyes.

    Mel leans closer. “Jack Abbot’s back from London. He’s choreographing a new ballet.”

    Samira’s heart skips a beat.

    Summary

    He presses open-mouthed kisses to her collarbones, tugs her shirt aside, down, away to kiss more of her, and when he deems it enough or when he finally loses the fight to drawing anything out in the name of anticipation, he lays the flat of his tongue onto her skin and licks up the length of her throat all the way to her ear.

    The skin turns cold immediately, and goosebumps race down Samira's arms as Jack's saliva cools, only to be warmed right back up by the next lick, again and again, until he's happy with how many shivers he's chased down Samira's back.

    Biting or sucking is no part of it. If she feels Jack's teeth on her neck, it's a quick slide against the skin, a stumble without intention.

    Or:
    Jack respects Samira.
