Excerpt
āStay away from me, Lady.ā
Her eyes met mine, daring her to push back. āWhat? I didnāt meanāā
āIām not the man you think I am. Iām an asshole with more control issues than they can diagnose. Iām not a nice guy.ā
āBut Iām safe,ā she whispered in a voice so fragile, it chipped at my resolve to stay away for her sake.
Fuck, that weak voice cracked every restraint I had. All she wanted to be was safe, and that was the one thing IĀ couldĀ offer. āNo oneāI repeat, no one will touch you while Iām here. That is a fact you shouldnāt question.ā
Her tight shoulders dropped, her lips parted in a relieved sigh. There was trust there, trust I hadnāt earned yet, but still she gave itāto me, a nobody.
Fuck it.
Narrowing my eyes, I crouched directly in front of her, inching closer until her back pressed against the brick hearth. Inches from her nose, I inhaled each of her shaky breaths, savoring the heated fear that pulsed off her as her eyes darkened with lust. She needed to be scared of me, to run in the opposite direction.
Still I dared another inch closer, hoping sheād push me off, praying she wouldnāt.
I slid a hand around the hot skin of her delicate neck.
āI donāt know how to be gentle, Lady,ā I growled.
Her breath hitched at the minuscule squeeze of my fingers around her throat.
āWhat if I donāt want gentle?ā she breathed.
āWhat do you want?ā
Light brown brows pulled together in thought, but her hazel eyes stayed locked with mine. āYou.ā
