Connor had never imagined Black Snake, known for being dangerously formidable, could be such a sweet, beautiful girl. Seeing her always made his heart race, stirring desires to kiss her and even think about a future together, including children Caught up in his feelings, he forgot everything else as he leaned over her, deepening their kiss, his hand starting to unbutton her pajama top Marissa was taken aback. She couldn't recall any man ever kissing her with such passion. The intensity left her heart pounding and dizziness overtaking her, rendering her unable to respond.
