He brushed a kiss along her spine, his hands never stopping "That's the sas, devouring all that sweet, sweet nectar you give me"

She found herself sood"

He looked down at her naked body The woman was his He kneith every breath he took, yet she still was elusive, ready to slip away no matter what he did He felt it She had one foot out the door, ready to flee at the first indication they were in trouble He knew they were Huge trouble The worst

He was stalling He had to talk to her Tell her the truth It wasn't fair to her More, it was dangerous Nikita would come after her, and she had to know the threat to her was very real He wanted to curse, to hit the wall, to break someone's neck, preferably that of her coward of a husband

He worked his way down her back She was beautiful Soft, glowing skin He hadn't thought skin felt like hers did "You going to tell ed her butt Those beautiful ass cheeks, fir underwear

His hand slipped between her thighs and pressed, silently cos for hi of why I know you're the one for me, Sonia? I'm sexual I probably alill be I like sex, but I don't like sharing my body with someone I'm not emotionally connected with That said, I need a lot of sex, especially with you I think about it all the tio, every piece of furniture When you're standing there, all anxious while I'ht fro your ridiculous overalls off you, or stripping you of those jeans that fit your ass like a fucking glove andyou come apart for me"

"You like my body," she said, her voice muffled by the mattress

"No, baby, I fuckin' love your body I've never wanted another woman the way I want you I'm adventurous in the bedroom I like to play You do as well"

"Joshua, that's sex It's just sex"

She sounded so weary it broke his heart She'd once said to him that Nikita had told his son women like her were to be fucked, not married

He took a breath and let it out slowly, feeling as if he was in the fight of his life, but not knowing how to proceed She wasn't understanding what he was trying to say "The things I do with you are yours alone No one else's Ever When I wanted sex before, it was the sex, not the woman With you, it's all about the woman"

He kept his hands on her body, working the sore s, all the way down to her feet "I love touching you Going to sleep with you curled next toup with you in ht and watch you sleep Watch you breathe I know every inch of your body Your laughter is likeinside h life, Sonia I didn't care if I lived or died I had nothing No one I know it's you"

He could see the side of her face and tears leaked out, caught on her long lashes and sparkled under the light "Turn over"

She shook her head "I can't Not yet"

"I wasn't askin', baby" He waited to see what she would do She was his He knew it right down to his soul and when she slowly turned so she was faceup, he understood she recognized it too She'd fought the desire to please hi to hide, but in the end, she'd done it--for him

He stretched out over top of her, a hu her legs spread wide for hi it up until both knees were bent and she was open to him He kissed her throat and then took her mouth Gently Just the way he'd wanted to from the first

He felt love welling up It was so strong, so intense, it was disturbing to hientle as he was capable of She needed to feel him He wanted to tell her with his body because he didn't have any other way

"Some men have fancy words, Sonia They can be poets Was he a poet? The e of you when your ive you pretty words?" His teeth closed on her lower lip and tugged He licked at the marks and whispered into her throat "Tell me if he did I want to know"

"Yes" She nearly choked out the answer

"I don't have those words to give you I don't kno to say them I can only show you I will love you better than any other ive you that andyou want to do Your painting Your renovations School, if that's what matters to you Every fuckin' dream you have, baby I'll stand with you Good or bad, I'll stand with you"

He kissed the tears running freely down her face That was killing hi of running "It's him, isn't it, Sonia? You don't want to stay with me because of him"

That hurt Just the thought of her loving another man hurt

She shook her head and opened her eyes to stare into his "Absolutely not Whatever you're thinking, Joshua, it isn't that How could I think about hiiven me so much I can be me You listen when I talk to you You ave asm and another million after that"

"Can you loveHe shouldn't She needed a little time, but they didn't have it "I'm crazy in love with you I want that back I want that saht for everyone else, but it's right for us Do you feel it at all?"

Her hands were on his back, stroking caresses up and down Her breasts pressed into his chest, those twin nipples rubbing along his muscles every time she moved He loved theht so he could draw first one soft mound then the other into the heat of his entle, he reminded himself She needed to know To feel

"Of course I feel it for you, Joshua" She whispered the admission in a low, shaken voice "You don't understand"

"I'h question" He wasn't going to let her get aith bullshit "I need this now, baby Give it to me"

He felt her breath Kneas for hiaze jus to test her readiness for hih him She was his All the way, she was his "Say it, Sonia Don't be a fuckin' coward Give me that much"

"You already know I don't understand why you're insisting I say the words out loud I'm here I'm in your house I'm in your bed Do you think I would have allowed anotherinside s to me you do? I wouldn't I would never trust them that much"

He caught his cock in his fist and guided it to her entrance So hot Right away The broad crown barely ht rip him He couldn't decide, heaven or hell, but either worked as long as he was in her Surrounded by her Her fingernails dug into his ass, and the sting had his cock sinking another inch or two into that scorching vise, robbing him of breath He forced himself to stay still It was difficult when he wanted to bury hi hot sheath

Gently, he reht le time he touched her, kissed her, cla love to her

"Would you have trusted him?"

She blinked up at hiht about it before she answered She shook her head slowly "No I don't knohen he was so good to me"

"Because your leopard and you scented deceit He was deceiving you You know I'm not I love you I told you, I' I do Say it Tell me you love me Feel it, Sonia In your heart In your fuckin' soul, feel it the way I do"

He sank into her becau

se there was no holding back, no real control, not when it was his woripped him He threw his head back and roared It was the only way to stand the fla him the kind of pleasure that could take a man's head off when he blew, the kind he dreaet

Her whisper was soft--so soft he barely caught it with the roar co belly I love you Three little words They gutted hiutted him Who knew a man could love so deeply? Fall so fast? Who kneoman could mean so much?

"Mean it, Sonia Please fuckingit gentle when his entire body was in fla hot, the friction as he pushed through those tight folds was incredible

"I ain, but her eyes were on his and he saw the truth there She gave that to him, and his heart actually hurt in his chest Thunder crashed in his ears She h the next few hours with the things he would have to say to her

He kept the pace slow, but caught her ankle again and wrapped her leg around his waist She hooked her other ankle behind his back with the first, changing the angle, allowing deeper penetration Her breath hissed out of her lungs She moaned--that sound he loved

"Look atat me I want to see it this time"

Her hands gripped his hips, fingers digging in "Everything you say is always so sexy"

Every hard jolt sent her breasts swaying, her nipples sliding over his chest "You are sexy Keep looking at ht behind you"
