I waited for her that night across the street I watched her lock up before walking across the road andher on the sidewalk

“How are you getting home?” I asked her

Her head ca, brown eyes met mine, and the surprise I saw filled me with another kind of satisfaction

“I…I walk,” she stuttered quietly

“I’ll walk you,” I told her, not giving her a choice My woht alone

I don’t give a fuck what people say about wohts and all that other bullshit I’d let my ex do whatever the fuck she wanted, and look where the fuck that had gotten nant until she could no longer safely bear my children

“I alalkme crave to do the same

“Not any out my hand for her

She looked at it for a few seconds before placing her srasp was alht myself not to carry her over toher only to myself I mentally talked myself down

I needed her to trust me

I needed her addicted to me

Then she would be ain

“Who are you?” she asked, looking up at me ide, innocent eyes

I looked her over The top of her head barely came up to the hlights, and it reached the middle of her back Her skin was the color of cream mixed with honey I could picture my marks all over her beautiful skin Her eyes were dark broith long lashes that I could tell were natural She didn’t wear makeup; she didn’t need it She was naturally beautiful

“Nolan,” I told her

Her eyes looked me over, and I knehat she saw: black hair, darker skin that’s natural froe, and dark-brown eyes surrounded by dark lashes I’d been told a tie of thirty-four well And I’d never had an issue getting a woman

My private investigator had inforive a fuck about our age difference My er she was, theexactly what I wanted He’d also done so into her past and hadn’t been able to find out about any previous relationships This suited me just fine I didn’

t even want to think about so her…ever

We walked the rest of the way to her apart in, but I would have to wait to resolve that issue I just needed to figure out how to force her out of her current residence and into mine

“Thank you for walkingto pull her hand from mine

I didn’t let up I wasn’t able to let go Her breathing picked up slightly, causing her breasts to press tighter against her top Without thinking, I lowered ue between her lips I could tell she was unsure; she didn’t know that what she was doing would only egg me on

I wanted to consume her

I wanted to brand her
