It may beat her down, but she’ll just rise back up, stronger than before.

Desperation to make this woman mine crashes through me. It’s not enough for her to continue to stay here with me while recovering from her injuries.

I want more.

Although if she tries to leave, I will fight to the death to prevent that from happening.

But it’s so much deeper than that.

I want her to fall in love with me.

Willingly.

Completely.

For a fucking eternity.

She needs to surrender all of herself to me. Nothing else will satisfy me.

Pulling my mind back to the present moment, contentment and bliss steal over me. I have everything I’ve ever wanted and could ever desire because of her. She is the light in my life, changing my world from black and white to a whirlwind of colors.

Her love makes me a better man.

The rain comes down faster and harder, making us laugh as it soaks through our clothing, drenching us.

Releasing her from my embrace, I tug her hand, pulling her to the car and helping her inside. Running to the driver’s side, I slide behind the steering wheel, slamming the door shut. The sky opens, water gushing from the thick clouds overhead, the sky turning pitch black as the storm settles in.

“Will. We are getting my new car all wet.”

I shrug, starting the car and turning the heat on. Twisting my body around, I reach into the back seat, grabbing a large utility bag and pulling out two towels.

Handing one to her, she grins as she takes in my mischievous smile.

“You knew it was going to storm, didn’t you?”

Rubbing the towel over my hair and then around to my face, I lift my head, turning to her. “I did. That’s why I brought you here. Not just to take a drive with you in your new car, but to see the sunset, then dance with you as it storms.”

Gently taking her towel from her, I lightly wipe over her face and neck, her pulse thrumming against her skin as we stare at one another, the ever-present flame flickering between us catching fire, burning us from within.

The desire coursing from her eyes practically melts my skin.

“How about we break your car in the right way?”

She grins. “What do you have in mind?”

“I think it’s better if I show you.”

Everleigh

Thelookinhiseyes as we stare at one another inside my new car causes my body to tremble, shivers coursing through me. Every one of my nerve ending stirs and tingles as he swallows, his Adam’s apple bobbing. His magnetic blue eyes shine as he shifts in the seat, moving closer to me.

My body craves his touch so much that the hair on my arms and the back of my neck rises, white hot bolts of electricity surging through my body.

Our lips meet in a hot and demanding kiss, the flames within bursting into an inferno of desire. His hands cup my face as he moves his mouth against mine, the heat coursing from his body easing my shivering.

Breaking apart slowly, our breathing is heavy as our gazes lock on each other. The storm descends directly over us, a flash of lightning coursing across the sky with jagged streaks, a loud crack of thunder following it. My attention shifts to the storm outside, until I feel Will’s hands running over thighs in my wet jeans, sending tingles through my skin and lighting up my body like the sky outside.
