When he was only inches from me, he took a full minute to gaze down the length of me before lifting his arm. The second he brushed just the tips of his fingers across my skin, I couldn’t hold back the ragged moan. I was instantly lightheaded, trying to maintain some sense of myself, but the larger than life man had such power over me.
He took his time exploring my face, the touch so light that I thought he was holding a feather. As he drew a circle around my lips, the light seemed to dim in the room. He made no sound, but I knew his heart was beating rapidly. When he trailed a single finger along the edge of my jaw, I realized my body was swaying.
The electricity between us was sparking like fireworks, draining my resolve. There was no way to deny this man. He’d taken control and refused to let it go.
When he cupped both sides of my face, inching even closer, I knew I would have fallen if he hadn’t been holding me. When he spoke, his words were even darker than before, so haunted that they took my breath away.
And no words had ever terrified me more.
“I can’t have you, but I can’t do without you, Aspen. I’ve tried. You are mine. I will ravage you every night, taking every inch of you. You are mine now and you will be forever. Until death do us part.”
CHAPTER10
Aspen
Until death do us part.
The words were chilling, but it was the way he said them that should be more troubling. There was no doubt he meant them. As he pulled me onto my tiptoes, I was forced to take several shallow breaths. There was so much darkness surrounding the man, a forcefield of sorts that both excited and terrified me, yet I couldn’t seem to stay away from him.
Or push aside my desires, however kinky they might be.
I shouldn’t feel this way, especially not after what I’d been forced to endure back home. But Montgomery was entirely different, able to slowly pull me into his world while providing extreme pleasure. If I wasn’t careful, I was going to spiral out of control, no longer able to control my desires or my emotions.
What then?
He held me in place, his fingers digging into my skin. Everything about him was so powerful, so strong. Yet he was a tortured man, his demons fighting to take over. Why I was so drawn to him couldn’t be explained with words.
Or even with my emotions.
I gripped his wrists, darting my eyes back and forth. As he lowered his head, pressing his lips against mine, every part of my body exploded in flames. Mewing, I was even more lightheaded, no longer able to fight him on any level. He’d found a way to entrap me in his sinful needs, pulling me into a web that threatened to keep me caged.
The taste of him was sweet, the intoxicating scent rushing into my bloodstream. He was gentle at first, taking his time to open and close my lips with his. When he finally slipped his tongue inside, there was no rush to explore the dark recesses of my mouth. I kept my grip on his arms, leaning against him.
Seconds later, he jerked me closer, pressing his rugged body against mine. The feel of his cock throbbing against my stomach was irresistible, creating a series of palpitations. As the moment of intimacy became more intense, he slid one hand around the back of my neck, squeezing until I was fearful that he’d cut off my air supply.
But he was the master of control, taking me close to moments of ecstasy with his mouth alone. As he dominated my tongue, swishing it back and forth, a single growl erupted from his depths. The man refused to let go, the kiss now raw and savage. His guttural sounds multiplied, floating between us. There was no doubt he was telling me exactly what he was going to do to me.
I pressed one hand against his chest, marveling in the way his muscles felt under the tips of my fingers. Nothing seemed real any longer, yet I never wanted these moments spent together to end. He was both draining and enthralling, pulling me to the very edge of my sanity.
When he finally broke the kiss, he took a single step backwards, yanking his shirt over his head. He reeked of passion, but I could tell his patience was waning. He wanted me now and there was nothing I could say to stop him.
Not that I wanted to.
He jerked on my shirt, ripping it over my head. Then he cupped my breasts over the thin lace of my bra, issuing several growls before lowering his head. When he wrapped his lips around my nipple, sucking on the already hardened bud over the material, I threw back my head, several scattered moans erupting into the air.
A flash of pain erupted in my system as he bit down, stars floating in front of my eyes. I could tell I was tottering back and forth, unable to keep my balance. “Oh, yes. Oh.” My words were lost in his animalistic sounds. He moved to my other breast, repeating his actions. Another moment of discomfort quickly morphed into the most pleasurable sensations.
“Perfect. And all mine.”
His words echoed in my ears. I rubbed both my hands down the length of his chest, another wave of excitement drilling into me. When he broke the connection entirely once again, I gasped and stumbled forward.
The look he gave me was carnal, the way he dragged his tongue across his lips depicting the true savage he was inside. A beast.
A monster.
“Undress.” The single word was almost unrecognizable. So deep. So demanding.
Yet I obeyed him without question, my fingers fumbling and stiff as I eased one strap of my bra down my arm then the other. I wasted no time in removing my boots and jeans, leaving only my thong. I watched in fascination as he removed the remainder of his clothes, taking almost no time in doing so. The sight of his muscular body took my breath away. I allowed my gaze to fall down the length of his chest to his thick cock, and finally to his long and very muscular legs. Another shiver skated through me.
