Malachi smirked then, unable to help it. "What I have in mind first doesn't need me to be any more naked than I am," he murmured against her mouth, then kissing her again. He let go of his wrists, moving his hands to caress her exposed stomach and then slid his fingers begin the waistband of her panties. He slid them down her thighs without breaking the kiss, only getting them half way before he moved his hand between her legs, fluttering his fingers over her thighs without reaching his destination.
