PROLOGUE

Soo

Crista Jansen stared at the bed and the man sprawled across it in horror as she stuht before pounding through her head like the strike of a taain

She covered herin sick realization of exactly how huge this mistake was The mistake and the man He took up als sprawled, his strong ar--for her

And he would be The man was inexhaustible A veritable sex ot started And she should kno––she and every other woman he had ever had in his bed

She could feel the ht before on every inch of her body: her breasts, swollen and sensitive fro at the tender tips, her lips abraded and tender frohs--

That aze slipped to his thighs, to the half-erect flesh that appeared threatening and overlarge, even though he wasn’t fully erect

Yet he had fit inside her Stretching her wide, often in a pleasure bordering pain He had ed to work every inch of that ironhard flesh inside her, and he had destroyed her with it Pounding inside her with a force that shook the bed and shook her senses, throwing her into one orgas such pleasure that she had been unwilling to deny it Unwilling to deny hi, even at the end

Her hand covered her mouth as tears filled her eyes Oh God, she hadn’t let his to her, had she? Lifted her rear for hiue caressed forbidden flesh, then screaan to work inside the heavily lubricated little hole

He had inity, and he had taken her sanity When he had finishedthe wet depths of her pussy, he had turned her to her stomach and marked her rear as well

With heated slaps, with diabolically talented fingers, and finally, with the deep, controlled thrusts of his cock

He had taken her anally, and she had let hi for breath, he had told her how much better it could be How three cocks would take her, ainst her, pleasure her

And with those words he had destroyed a part of her soul She had dreaentle words Endearain She hadn’t expected him to tell her that soon, so soon, she would have his cousins as well

They shared their women; she knew that It wasn’t just rumor, wasn’t just hinted at Alex, her brother, had warned her repeatedly that the stories didn’t co and his cousins lived, and she hadn’t heeded that warning

Shaking in fear, she quickly jerked her shorts and T-shirt on, not bothering to search for her panties and bra God only knehere they were She had to get out of there before he awoke, before he realized how incredibly stupid she had been

He had been drunk Hehith she possessed But she had understood the drunkenness

His parents had just died in a horrifying wreck; he had buried theone from him forever He deserved a few hours of freedom froh to go looking for him when she learned he wasn’t with Rowdy and Natches If only she hadn’t groorried about hi for him

But she had, and she had known better She should have sent Alex after him She should have sent anyone after him but herself Because she had knoould end, and she had knohere he would want it to go

Rather than accepting that, she had fooled herself into thinking that taking her, realizing her innocence, her feelings for him, that he would show a spark of possessiveness Just aanotheras she eased the lock back on the glass door that led to the lower deck of the houseboat It was still early Thethe houseboats and creating a lu hie, so tall and broad, his body leanly htly furred, the crisp curls had raked her nipples as he thrust into her When his lips hadn’t been suckling them But it was more than just the physical That power had seeped inside her, filled her with emotions she had tried to hold in check, tried to protect herself from She loved him He made her heart clench and her soul ache He had the power to bring her to her knees or to reen eyes of his

And when he touched her…When he touched her, he’d had the power toMackay was

As she slipped down the docks, she kept her head down, kept her eyes on the floating ay, and prayed no one saw her Daas barely breaking over the mountains now;around for hours yet

She could get lucky She could escape, and no one would ever know she had spent the night with one of the ods in five counties One of three

She swiped at her tears She hated crying She had learned years ago that no good ca her feel worse than ever

But she couldn’t stop the tears anyher all sureen eyes framed by the thick, inky black lashes, so pale they mesmerized her and pierced into her soul

His sh he were aware of the ache that centered between her thighs and torh he kne often she drea touched

The dreaht herself out of that bed had been next to impossible She had wanted him to flow over her; she wanted to take his cock into her ht her

She wanted to hear hiain, watch his eyes darken She wanted to run and hide and make certain she never let herself becoain

And it was breaking her heart Walking away, turning her back on the onlyher It hurt physically It made her sto wound
