Tears leaked from her eyes and peeled down her cheeks. Even crying she looked beautiful.
“I love you more than life itself,” I said. “I only love my life because you’re in it. And I’m sorry I reacted the way I did. I was wrong.”
She thumbed the tears out of her eyes.
“No, you were right,” she said. “It’s your job to worry about Cleb. That’s your responsibility. That’s why your sister left him to you.”
“I was wrong to think he was better off without you. It wasn’t your fault what the kidnapper did. You did what you thought was right at the time. In future, just let me know. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do to help you. You know that.”
She smiled.
“Yeah,” she said.
I took her hand and weaved my fingers through hers. She squeezed my hand back. I leaned forward to kiss her.
She pulled back.
“Not yet,” she said. “I need a little time.”
“Oh,” I said, a little disappointed. “All right.”
Bianca’s eyes sparkled.
“That’s it?” she said. “You’re not going to hijack a spaceship for me? You’re going to give up so easily?”
I grinned at her and pressed my lips to hers. I put all my love into it. It was passionate but without too much tongue.
“You know, there’s a hotel just across the road…” she said. “And you just got out of jail. I imagine you’ve got a lot of pent up aggression you need to get out of your system. I wouldn’t want to frighten Cleb or the servants with our shenanigans.”
“You’d better prepare yourself,” I said. “I’m feeling very hungry.”
She hooked her arm through mine and together we crossed the road and booked into the best room they had at the hotel.
Bianca might be Cleb’s governess, but tonight, I would be hers. There was a lot I wished to teach her.
I would push her to her absolute limit.
Every day of our lives.

PROLOGUE—VICKY
His lips begged to be kissed.
They sat there, teed up and ready to be attacked by my own yearning hunger.
Spots of water sat on them, dewy from the rain that drenched our clothes and splattered our hair and ran down our faces.
I barely even noticed it.
I didn’t think he did either.
We stood in a pool of warm yellow light that stretched across the grass like a heavenly spotlight.
I was falling desperately in love with this man.
