“Look at me.” My eyes flipped open, colliding with his evergreen gaze. His expression was stormy, conflicted. “This isn’t necessary. I told you already we’ll go to a clinic.” He swallowed thickly. “You can use whatever sample you want.”
Wait, what?
“Y-you don’t want to have children of your own?”
“With you? Fuck, yes, I do.”
“Then why would you want me to use some other guy’s sperm?” I was thoroughly confused. He’d forced this marriage. He’d been upset when I went to the clinic today.
The only explanation was that my body disgusted him. My scars.
“I don’t.” He growled. “I don’t want another guy’s sperm, hands, cock, getting anywhere near you. Not a single part of their bodies. But I also won’t force you to have my children. Or have sex with me.”
He dropped his hands and turned away from me. I felt myself shrinking smaller. Felt the confidence I’d had shrivel up and die. He didn’t want me. He wanted nothing to do with me.
“Not like before.” His voice held so much agony.
“Before?” My head jerked up to look at him. His jaw was tensed, and his knuckles were white from how tightly he clenched his fists.
“In my office.” He rubbed between his eyes like he was trying to push away the memory. “When I ra — when I slept with you. When I used that to force you to marry me.”
Oh, my god! Is that why he hadn’t touched me? He thought he’d forced me like Mitchell. That I didn’t want him.
He was nothing like his brother.
And I wanted him desperately.
I cupped his face in the same way he’d done mine, forcing his gaze back to me. A shiver ran down my spine as his stubble rubbed along my palm. “You didn’t force me.”
“You don’t have to lie. I know what I am.” I held him tighter as he tried to pull away again.
“I know what you are, too. You’re a murderer.” He flinched at my words. “You’re the head of a criminal organization. You torture people for your job. You sell weapons and extort people for money. But you’re not a rapist. You could never be that. You could never hurt a woman.”
I ground my hips against him, showing him I wasn’t afraid. Letting him feel how much I needed this.
“I wanted everything you did to me in your office. I didn’t want to want it because back then, I didn’t know who you were. But I loved every second.” I leaned forward until my lips brushed his. “And I want to do it again.”
I crashed our mouths together. They were just as firm as I remembered. For a moment, he was still beneath me, letting me feel him. Or maybe he was unsure if he could believe my words. I poked my tongue out, tracing along the seam of his lips. That was all it took to unleash him.
He fisted my hair, maneuvering my head in the position he wanted. My lips parted on a gasp, and he surged in. His tongue devoured every inch of my mouth. He swept in like he couldn’t get enough of my taste. Like he wanted to suck my soul through my mouth.
I ran my fingers through his hair, holding him to me as I tried to match his pace. He was ferocious. Possessive. And I craved it.
I rocked my hips as I let him consume me. I was dying for more. Drowning in my desire for him.
He broke the kiss, leaving me gasping for air as he massaged my scalp with his fingers. “Say it again.”
“I want you,” I whispered as I stared into his eyes.
He closed them as if he was savoring my words. A slight smile tugged on his lips as he took a deep breath. I wanted to give him more. Wanted to see that expression on his face every day.
“Be absolutely sure, Sunflower.” His eyes opened, and I saw the burning desire flaming behind them. “Because once I have you, that’s it. There’s no going back. You’re mine forever. You’ll be my wife in every way that matters. No more separate beds. No more talk of clinics and having someone else’s baby. It’ll be me. Only me; until death do us part.”
My heart knocked inside my chest as a warm feeling bloomed in my stomach. Is that what I wanted? I was already legally bound to him. Did I want to bind myself physically? Did I trust him not to hurt me?
“Yes. All of it, yes.”
“Fuck.” His lips attacked mine again, and I moaned into his mouth.
