What does that say about me?

Easy answer.

I’m totally fucked.

EPISODE 224

BABY COME BACK

Emily

“I love you,” River says through clenched teeth. “I love you so much it fucking hurts. And Emily, I’m going to fuck you so roughly, so thoroughly. that you’ll never so much asthinkabout another man again.”

I draw in a sharp breath, my heart pounding. Fear, arousal, and a touch of indignation mingle together, creating a mixture of emotions that leaves me breathless.

River roughly grips me, his touch possessive, domineering. He's marking me as his.

I should object to such raw domination…

But I don’t.

There's an odd sort of satisfaction in that. A sense of belonging.

He crushes his lips to mine in a savage kiss, consuming me. I can taste the raw desire, the need for dominance and possession. We kiss and we kiss and we kiss. I let him take me, let him ease his anger with his lips and tongue.

A few moments later, he tears away from my lips and gasps in a breath. “You're mine, Emily.”

The blunt assertion sends currents pulsing through me.

For the first time in my life, I’m putty in a man’s hands.

He can do whatever he wants to me. Flip me over and bugger me. Even without lubrication. I’ll let him do it.

The thought should bloody frighten me.

But it doesn’t.

I want to be consumed by River Barrett.

I want to be his and only his.

He undresses me quickly and then glares at me, his gaze darkened with the intensity of his desire.

I tremble under the weight of his gaze. His hunger for me is palpable. It fills the room, making the air thick.

He gathers me in his arms and presses me against his naked chest. The heat from his body sears into mine—a stark reminder of what's about to happen. Of what he's going to do.

“Look at me,” he commands.

I can't deny him anything. Not now.

I meet his gaze. Raw need is etched on his gorgeous face.

He's not simply angry.

He's at war with himself.

The whole thing with Jake and the others is eating at him.
