   Summary

   Sebastian wanted to interject, but didn’t dare. Not yet. Instead, he brought one of James’ hands up to his mouth and pressed a series of kisses along the heel of his palm, and then over the thin, tender skin and delicate ligaments of his inner wrist. His pulse was beating away just under the surface, hot and steady. The even, driving tempo of a war-drum.

   The man had fine hands, clean and well groomed. Sturdy and capable, but also with long, elegant fingers. It was the fingers Sebastian kissed next, as James continued talking, passing his lips across each knuckle and joint in turn.
