The minute the words are out of my mouth, I wish I could have cut my tongue out.

Where the fuck did that come from?

I run a hand over my face as she stares at me.

“Marco, things are…going to be difficult.”

I nod. “I know, I wasn’t thinking…”

That’s the trouble when it comes to women, especially this one, I can’t seem to get a hold of myself. I seem to want to just go against the rules and say to hell with them; they aren’t my rules anyway.

Though, being with her, a Petrov, goes against everything my family has built and has been working toward eliminating. I know it can’t continue.

Yet, here she lies, in my arms, as soft as butter.

And I have this protective need for her. I feel it down to my bones.

Maybe part of it is because I was the one to carry her out, to be the first person she saw who wasn’t going to harm her in that godforsaken place. Neither of us care to admit it, but we’re connected.

And for the first time in my life, I have no idea what I’m going to do about her.

“You think a lot,” she says after a few moments of silence.

I shake my head. “How do you know that?”

She stares at the ceiling, in no hurry to get up and finish packing.

“I can practically hear the cogs turning in your head.”

I don’t know why this amuses her, but I’d do anything to bring a smile to her face instead of a frown.

“And you’re too smart for your own good.”

“That’s not the first time someone’s told me that,” she muses.

I reach down and pull the comforter over her so she doesn’t catch a chill.

Our breathing is slowly returning to normal.

I glance at my watch.

“We only have a little time,” I tell her. “If you want to take a shower…”

She nods. “Will you come with me?”

I swallow hard, unable to keep myself from doing anything except pleasing her.

We pad over to my large bathroom as she gasps. “This is the biggest shower I’ve ever seen.”

I roll my eyes. “Watching you shower may lead to more of what I just did to you.”

I pull her into my arms, and we kiss again as I turn both showerheads on. Then the steamer.

“Good,” she whispers, stepping inside. “I want it.”

She stands under the warm spray, wetting her hair as I stand under mine and watch her. She reaches for my shower gel, and I watch as she squeezes some into her hand and then begins to wash herself.

I trail my eyes down her body, wishing I didn’t have to wash her scent off me. I want to wear it like a fucking trophy. She’s curvy, voluptuous with large breasts and legs that would look fucking amazing wrapped around my head while I fuck her with my tongue.
